Bravopilot

All clubs work better for me in VA turf conditions but remember I'm in VA when the grass is growing thick. The Florida bermuda is either going or gone dormant when we're down there. October and November are decent in Florida but things get very tight and thin by Christmas.

      sdandrea1 Now your lifestyle doesn't sound so glamorous.😎 Hybrid has to be better, my Highlander doesn't do so great on mileage, but might be me (had a visit with the Marion Sherriff dept on I-81), not sure. But love the ride.

          The weather is nice on the winter but the grass isn't. 😉

          Highlander are great vehicles. Slow down my friend!

            Cobra Air X SN Driver. 10.5 loft, 40g Lite flex shaft. 277 grams total weight.

            The SN hosel still has a closed face. The offset model is offset AND closed. No problem hitting fairways and it does NOT balloon like my previous Cobra senior drivers. Spin must be lower. It's heft at 277g feels light but it does not have the high-torque fly-rod tip section that the XXIO and Honma did. Consequently it doesn't feel like I smashed it, but the distance is actually better than the BB B21 and about equal to the JDMs. Shot my personal best 9 holes ever today at The Gauntlet.

              Typhoon If you spent a half hour on a launch monitor you’d KNOW why

              And then what? The driver still does the same thing AFTER I know why. What's changed? It was way more fun finding out in the dirt.

                  sdandrea1 You said “spin must be lower”… but you have no way qualitative information to prove it, It’s your guess…. That’s what I mean. Guessing is digging in the dirt.

                      That's how I roll John. I enjoy playing golf and experimenting with clubs. I have fun with my buds/family, shoot the best I can with what's in the bag that day. Don't care what my launch monitor #s are. They are of no consequence to me. If you think they're important to you, then go for it. I'm not putting it down. I'm just not interested. No need to push it on me or sell it. I'm not buying.

                          sdandrea1 I know you like trying everything, it just made me roll my eyes when you said “it must be spin” but you don’t actually care to know. It also could have been a loose spike on your left golf shoe😁.

                            I forgot to mention sound/feel on the Air X. It's a little tinny but not annoying.

                            I like your club reviews. It is content for the Last Tee blog

                            papaD's Gold List. Like Golf Digest. Only different...

                            I’ve bought my last 2 drivers based (at least partially) on reviews by Steve. Have been very happy with both. 👍

                            I'll keep going. Just have to deal with the you-a-ho-never-gonna-keep-it-you'll-sell-it-in-2-hours ball-busting, I guess.

                            If you ain't a HO then how would you know?

                            I say " If you don't know, how would you know better?"

                            The G425 irons have 3 rounds on them now. Shafts are just right for this geezer. The heads are very clicky sounding but feel is good. Height is great and my shots hold the greens here in VA. Chipping with the 7i is still a work in progress for distance judging. These are very much like my old G400 irons. 9i and UW are my favorite clubs so far. Very nice look at address with thin top line and mid-width sole hidden. These are way more forgiving than they look. Too bad they're not blue.

                            DonM I think one of these sooper ultra light drivers will be the only way I pick up any more yards. I am looking forward to demo-ing some.

                            I agree with Steve's post about Honma. I purchased his Honma XP-1 very light shaft probably the easiest to hit driver I have used in a long time at 45.25" playing length. I will do a full report after a few more times usage.
