What is Cobra equipment like? My pro shop has been recommending them to me, but I also know that the pro wears a lot of their tshirts, so maybe they give him a loada gear. So just worried that he might be just trying to increase his sales.

5 Wood: Ping G5
Irons: Cobra fp 4-SW
Bag: Powakaddy
Ball: Srixon soft feel


I bought a set of FP's last year and love them. If you are in the market for irons, give them a fair look.

Cobra is known for their drivers and woods they are good clubs in fact they are part of Titleist and if you look very closly u can probably c some similarities. A lot of the long drive hitters use Cobra drivers and Pinnacle ball which is also part of Titleist. i love titleist for there overall equip. they just know what they are doing

Im pretty good distance wise, im more looking for a club that will give me more control/accuracy and also a lower ball flight. Ive currently got graphite shafts in my clubs and their causing a lot of spin, lifting the ball up.

cobra isn't a bad selection but if you want a pure feel and control club you might want to take a look at Titleists' line of irons, they are forged as supposed to cobra's cast process. ball flight is controlled by your shaft selection, weight and type of shaft. You really don't want to lower your ball flight, you want a boring trajectory. Steel offers control, rifle shafts flatten a ball flight and allow you to control your flight without having to alter to many swing mechanics.

Cobra makes a superb line of clubs: those for the low handicap player as well as for those of us at the higher end of the scale. Their drivers, hybrids, and irons are terrific. I have no experience with their fairway metals, but I would bet the bank they're as good as the rest of their line. Check out their website. You'll find clubs there for almost every level player. As for anyone telling you one manufacturer's clubs are patently better than another, well, you just need to discount that person's advice. Determing what's best for you is something that only you can figure out based on trying different manufacturers' clubs. In any event, Cobra makes a very good product. Good luck to you.

Another vote for Cobra - very solid stuff, love my S9's. While I hit Taylor drivers, others in the family have Cobra drivers and fairway woods and love them. One of the 'can't go wrong' brands out there, IMO.

As you can probably tell, I love Cobra. It's got great distance whilst having great control, and you can use their equipment whatever the handicap. Obviously that's just my opinion because their stuff works best for me, but it's your choice, go out and try their stuff, along with others, and see what you find best, that's how I chose.

Well you have received a lot of endorsements for the Cobras in the last posts. You may be correct in assuming that the Pro could be pushing a brand of clubs over something else especially if he/she is on "staff" with the company. I have a friend on Cobra staff and while she is a teaching pro and doesn't sell, she loves their equipment. Also my brother-in-law just got the whole game improvement set-up and is playing the best he has ever played.

    • Controversial takes are allowed here. Also there is no expectation that a take be 100% airtight supported by hundreds of facts that would stand up to the most rigorous scrutiny but there is an expectation that when you make a claim that you support it with facts, especially when directly prompted to do so on multiple occasions.  Here are, IMO, the issues and what has rubbed people (myself included) the wrong way The whole selectively choosing who to reply to Ignoring direct requests to back up your claims with facts Continuing to spew additional things that are straight up wrong The most recent of which claiming that if Rory blows a 2 shot lead today that would be the greatest collapse since Greg Norman. Jordan Spieth blew a FIVE shot lead in the final round in 2016 yet somehow if Rory blows a TWO shot lead that would be the greatest collapse since Norman???   
    • Well then by all means you should ban me, don’t know why you should wait until the end?  I’m just a golfer and pro golf fan and wanted to come in here and give a take, maybe controversial, maybe not every element buttoned down with facts (jeez), but not an unreasonable take.  Go ahead, ban me, stay in your safe fact checked moderated bubble, running just the way you want it to.  Good luck to you and everyone else here, seems like a good forum with good folks.
    • Maybe you could just be less of a troll and, frankly, an ass. At least you chose an appropriate username. Should Rory win, perhaps we should ban you. That sounds fair. Your whole vibe to this point is bullshit. I've had this site for over 20 years. You don't think I've offered "takes"? Ha ha. What I try not to do is all you've done: offer bullshit based on falsities.
    • On this forum takes that arent supported by facts get called out. (Rightfully so) I'd rather not have a take than have a take that isn't supported by facts.   You haven't given us any facts to check.
    • jeezus, you sound like a librarian or an auditor person.  At least I have a take.  You could try coming up with something more interesting than being the corporate fact checker, maybe that’s not possible for you
