Just bought some like new from Callaway Preowned clubs two Cobra hybrids.   I bought a 4 and a 5 hybrid.  Both have the fly z shaft in light flex.  Both look like they were hardly used.  One has a winn dry tac grip in 1/16" oversize and one ( the 4) has some kind on jumbo type grip.  It is almost the same size from top to bottom.  I use a standard grip my self which is about right from how you tell if you have the right grip.  Anyway I took both clubs out to my hitting net in my yard and took a couple of good balls to hit.  I also put the stickers on the face so I could tell where I was hitting the ball .  I started  off the small matt I have.  I used the 5 first.  The club feels good when swinging it.  It almost has no sound when you hit the ball which I don't care for.  I tried the 4 with the jumbo grip and I could never hit the ball in the center of the face.  I tried to hit on the matt and then went to the grass.  Didn't really seem to make any  difference.  I could do fairly well with the 5.  I just wonder if the grip could make that kind of difference.  I always hit the ball low on the face.  I really figured the club would have a good tink sound but it doesn't.  I went back a read a couple of reviews and they said it doesn't have much sound.  I took the stickers off the face and just barley punched the ball with both clubs and the sound just isn't there.  I have a callaway 6 and a callaway 3 hybrid and they sound completely different.  You can really tell when you hit  the sweetspot with the callaways but I don't know how its going to be with the Cobras.  Does anyone use these clubs and what do they think about them?

I had bought some Cobra Fly Z irons 6 through pw so I got these hybrids to go with them.  I am going to regrip all of them with standard Winn Dry Tac grips.

    • Thank you.  I'll cross it off the list since it isn't going to achieve what I want. 
    • While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).
    • Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.
    • No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??
