First of all, hello to all and my admiration to this forum! i am from Spain and there is nothing no way near as this forum in my language.

As the forum, it is also hard to find good set of clubs at good prices like in US, so im buying one abroad.

Im looking for a game improvement set, and after researching in this forum, i have a question:

I have found the Cobra S3 max irons set for around 270usd, and Tour Edge Bazooka HT max (3 and 4 hybrid, 5-PW iron) for 177usd.

Prices are with shipment included.

The question is, is there really a big difference as the price says? Theres not really a lot of info about the bazookas anywhere, and in this forum when someone asked, they reccomended others..

what is the better choice? thank you very much for your time

PD: sorry for my english

Cobra are a well known golf club manufacturer. Rickie Fowler, amongst others plays their clubs on the PGA Tour. Although I haven't ever seen the S3 Max irons so I can't offer you any information about them.

I've never heard of Tour Edge, so they're definitely not a brand of clubs on a level with Cobra and other known manufacturers. That doesn't necessarily mean the clubs aren't any good, but unless you had a good reason to believe they're going to work well for you (ie. you've already played them before) then I'd steer clear and pay the extra for a known brand.

Thank you for the reply. I hadn't heard aboutTour Edge either, but saw them on a Golf Digest magazine thread about game improvement sets, and looked them up online, saw they had a fairly "cheap" price and coming with two hybrids, kept them in mind.

It is impossible to find them here in any store to try them out, so its a bit of a gamble to get them, so i might as well just get the Cobra's.

Whoa now be careful when you say they are a "cheap" brand...Tour Edge is a more affordable version of Tour Edge Exotics and they are very much known and make very good clubs.  TEE are definately as widely available as other brands but they are still very good sticks.

In cheap between " " i was meaning affordable, yes :)

Also forgot to note in the prices i mentioned, that the Bazookas are a 8 stick set, and the Cobra's, 5 stick set

new addition to the list, Callaway Diablo Edge, set of 7 clubs, 4H and 5-PW, priced at 370usd shipped.

I've seen nothing but fantastic reviews for these, but are they worth the extra $$?

thank you! :)

I don't know about the other clubs you talked about but I can tell you the Cobra S3 Max are a great game improvement clubs, I have hit them. I don't think you will go wrong with them. IMO. Callaway if also a great club.

    • Day 5: did a stack session. Did some slow swings between sets, working on hands down. 
    • So, I might have to get out of the C-Taper golf shaft. I have an older Mizuno with a KBS Tour shaft in. I was messing around with closing my eyes and feeling where the weight of the club is being felt at. The C-Taper was all in my fingers. I didn't feel much of anything of the club head or shaft of the club. It felt super heavy in my hands. The KBS Tour I could feel a weight further away from my hands, out in space.  The Mizuno weights 2 grams more, but is about 2-3 swing weights lighter than my current irons.  So, yea. I am thinking I might sense the club better with maybe a less stout golf shaft and maybe a lighter swing weight. Probably more to do with the golf shaft. I am thinking the feeling of the weight out in space is more of the shaft loading more easily. 
    • Day 25 (2 Apr 26) - Worked on green side chips at the course before helping with the school golf tournament today.  Worked on low flighted spinners to get solid hop and stops.  
    • Day 227 4-2 Chest and hip turn with flow drill. Trying to get a rhythm to the hip movement/less segmented feeling. 
    • A bit back at it tonight. I just wanted to add in the feel of a softer left arm through out the backswing. This helps me hinge the club. I make sure I am not bending it a ton, but not straightening it. It helps feel like I can keep the club in front of me more and lift the club up sooner.
