I see all three of these around pretty cheap and im thinking about buying some LH models in my quest to be a switch hitter.

Anyone play these? What are your thoughts considering their costs now? they are all used and are avaliable in stiff flex as i prefer on longer clubs

Cobra S9-1 F Driver ($37.46) stiff

Cobra S9-1F 3 Wood ($33.71) stiff

TaylorMade Burner Superfast 2.0 21 degree hybrid ($33.71) stiff

I have a 20 degree Cobra Baffler that i use right handed and love, its just this site doesnt have a left handed version and since shipping costs overseas are alot i have to add a third club at least.

Well i guess ill find out on my own. I went ahead with the cobra's but i left the hybrid out of the plans for now - i got new spikes instead

So you normally hit RH but you want to start hitting LH? My dad is right handed but has always hit LH. The problem is that he hits pulls and hooks bc his stronger hand (right) is the upper hand on the grip when hitting LH.

i want to hit both ways.

well in golf, yeah i normally hit rh, i never had the options of lh clubs around when i was younger. my dad played right so i learned right. i was a switch hitter in baseball for 13 years. Im making the switch to protect my left shoulder. i tore my rotator cuff when i was younger and recently i hurt it again by swinging a lot i guess. in a last ditch effort i tried to shorten my long swing to help but it was too late and now over 2-3 weeks later im still popping ibprofen and icing it.

My Stronger arm is my left, i threw left, though i could throw right some. im semi ambidextrous. my domin leg is my right. i shoot guns right handed, i use a mouse rh, i write left handed. my first swing when i was 4 right handed even though i threw lh, i added the left at 6. i wrote with both hands as a kid til i was told to go with one. so who knows.

Anyway, a few days ago i did start light swinging and stretching drills though, nothing with strength. i have a lh 7 iron a mate let me borrow and ive been hitting plastic balls at the fence.

the goal is to hit all my long clubs LH driver - 5,6,7 ? and my shorter clubs RH 8-Wedges and putt both ways. i have an old bulls eye style putter but its rusted so i dont use it but i also have separate left and right handed putters - but ill get a new double sided putter eventually.

    • Day 33 (13 Dec 25) - Worked on weight shift and resetting the left heel during downswing (after listening to a discussion on Golf School this morning on PGA Tour Radio).  It centered on how Jack Nicklaus lifted his lead heel and how long driver champs do as well.  Taking cues from that discussion, worked an exaggerated feel of the left heel working doing some swing drill in the backyard using the 7i.  Wrapped up the session by hitting a few low bump and run shots in the backyard - keeping the process slow and exaggerated.  
    • Day 123 12-13 Rotation and getting to lead side work. Recorded face on. Hit a few foam balls but did plenty of rehearsals today.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
