I am looking to spend as little as possible. My choices are. Tmade rbz, cobra amp, or possibly zl encore if it is worth the extra 50$ So I hit it pretty far and love a shaft that is really stiff. I have all cobra clubs except one wedge and a Scotty so the two cobras would look good but that doesn't really matter to me. Rbz is 200 amp is 220 and zl encore is 260. I want to get a new driver so it will last a while other than getting another used one Thoughts?

Look on Ebay for a new driver. I recommend Cobra, not because it would match your irons but because they make a great club. I use the S2 and love it.

I don't trust eBay. I know it depends on who you buy from but one of my buddies bought a knock off so I'm a little scared by that

Ya I have amp cell irons and they are great. I tried rbz and amp Rbz was longer on the monitor averaging 285 but a few misses left and right. Amp was 270 with a 10 yard fade every single time so I went with the consistency over power

that's understandable. personally i'd rather work on fixing my swing and being consistent with that instead of using a club that corrects that weakness for me. just my thoughts. I'm impressed with the cobra irons. they are straight and looooooong. I'm reaching par 5's in two now with a 4i. which is a first for me being as I've only played for a year.

Yes I agree and actually I went to the range today and fixed it. Just was getting lazy with the swing. All in all I'm happy cause it fits right in with my nearly all cobra set. I loved the 3 wood so it also contributed to the decision. Yes I also fell in love with the feel of the clubs!

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
