Cobra King LTD Black Driver and Fairway Woods: In-hand photos

[timothyjames333]

I love the murdered out, is the shaft the rogue black or silver? Also, I really think the shaft companies should start releasing their special edition shafts to the public (true Temper made a black xp 95 for callaway's black apex this year.) Also I've seen black tour issuje Dynamic Gold in the irons of some tour players, I have em in all my black Vokey's. Not only do they look sooooo clean and fresh they're a great shaft. Great feel, awesome ball flight. Sorry for the tangent

Looks OK but I quite like the current one. I think I'll stick with it for another year and wait for the updated King Ltd.

Sweet looking clubs stealthy but deadly

[Jdavenp3]

Is this being released to the general public?

[jay_dwight]

Looks like a cheaper version of the original(and not in a good way).

 

Plus same dog sh!t stock shaft.

 

I love Cobra but seriously put a decent shaft in your top end driver.

[Kenbarlow]

Anybody know if you can buy the club without the arcos thing in the grips? Also anybody know a release date? Thanks

[Ldub22]

Release date?

[BDoubleG]

Release date?

 

I think it's already out...some of the online retailers are advertising it, and they aren't calling it a pre-order.

But it has the grass catching speed channel....gimme' a break people...looks great!

Is the headcover the same black and orange zippable number or has it changed as well?

Have you seen all the no-upgrade options from the factory? They offer a heck of a lot of shafts..

 

Now, what you see in the local shop might be a different story, but Cobra offers just as much, if not more, in the sense of shaft selection.

I like the look of the fairway a lot too.. dang. Always some very underrated clubs.

[Jimmie48]

so its black then...ok cool

Seriously, they don't get nearly the credit they deserve. I picked up a cheap Bio Cell+ fairway wood last summer/fall and didn't even hit it until just a few weeks ago. Hot dang was I missing a lot with that club.

Anyone gaming one of these? How's the finish vs the normal head?

should imagine it's a little more matte....

[ShowMe]

Looks awesome! Here's the one I have, courtesy of ROBOPTI earlier this year. He left the orange on the sole, but matted out the top. He did a fantastic job:

 

 

 

The INFAMOUS ROBOPTI haha Awesome matte job on that head. Wish he was still around :D

 

Did something happen to him?

I just received mine about a week ago. Finish is as matte as it gets and looks really good. The checker pattern on the crown more subtle and less noticeable than the original version.

The LTD pro driver is an absolute bomber club - I get unicorn trackman numbers from it. I have the original black/orange one. Going to have to superglue the silly spaceport thing tho, keeps wanting to come loose (and I havent touched it other than to re-tighten it). I got to hit the LTD 3-4 wood yesterday, it was only 40*, so we will see about that one. But the driver is absolutely something you should try if you havent. It wasnt even on my radar when I hit a bunch of stuff and only hit it at the fitters recommendation. I like the all black one, but wont be buying as mine is new.

[wldchld22]

Awesome that they decided to keep an awesome driver on the market and just offer a new option.

 

 

[nbigg]

I can't imagine they will sell very well even though I agree it's a great looking club. Not many will want to pay top dollar when they can get an original for under $200.

What are the opinions on the 4-5 wood? Im debating m1/2 or cobra ltd. I play my 4 wood at 42.25" and am slightly concerned that I cant add weight to m2. Does the ltd perform well compared to the m2?

paired with the right shaft, I found the Ltd longer and more forgiving than the M1/m2. I got the 3/4 set at 16.5 but should of got the 4/5 at 16.5, sits better

ROBO sure made things interesting. I hope his XPHLEXXX shaft company is doing well on the LD Tour. Haven't heard from the ole' boy in quite a while. Now that BH is back in town, over on the other side. Rob's a great guy need some dancing gorilla's.

 

 

PS: nice matte finish on that head, may have to give that a try on my own.

 

PSS: Does anyone know if there's actually any real changes to the head itself other then the paint scheme?

From what I heard no changes.. but that might not be a bad thing..
