Hi there,

I just got my Cobra Carbon CB's (they're awsome) and now I'm looking for a new #3 fairway wood...
I'm having doubts choosing between the TM Burner 15° (TP or not, don't know) and the Cobra X Speed Pro 15° ... Any advice? Cause didnt find the X speed in the golf digest hot list and I wonder if anyone has any experience with it, because the Cobra's aren't available in my local golf store so can't try them before I make my order at TGW.

Thanks!

Hey William,

I got a TaylorMade Burner 3-Wood (non-TP version) for Christmas and I really like it. I only started playing golf in may last year and even a beginner like me can (occasionally ) have some good shots with it.
I never tried the COBRA so I can't really compare them.

Ciao,

KN

Hey William,

Thanks. En ook van Antwerpen zie ik waar speel je? Heb me juist lid gemaakt op 3 Eycken gisteren. Dus Burner is een aanrader? Translation because of the English only rules :p : I just asked him where he plays as he lives in Antwerp (Belgium) just like me.

I play at the A.G.S (Antwerp Golf School) in Aartselaar. It's a small golf school with only 6 holes and also a putting green, a chipping green, a practice bunker and a driving range.
I never been at the Drie Eycken before but a friend of mine is a member there too and he really likes it there. I'm going to join our club competition and I hope I can reduce my handicap to 36 or lower this year so I can finally enjoy the "big" courses

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
