Cobra King F7 Driver, Fairway Woods and Hybrids: In-hand photos

[elwhippy]

Light years better than previous offerings. Love the shape of the driver and hybrids. Cobra may make an appearance in my bag after a good decade's absence.

[wkndhack]

Love my Baffler so much I might have to break a personal rule and pay full new release price for one of the hybrids.

[dciccoritti]

This line of woods looks really good. I loved my Amp Cell when I played it and believe Cobra does a great job combining performance and forgiveness. Might have to hit these when they become available. Looking forward to feedback and reviews.

Man I really love the look of these clubs but i have now struck out twice with the Biocell and F6+ the last 18 months. Even with several shaft changes between both clubs in profiles identical to what I typically use, I just couldn't get these clubs to work for me. Cobras for whatever reason just don't Jive with my swing at all.

I don't like hybrids that much, but I love the Baffler so much, I might buy the hybrid.

[boycer]

They are going to sell a lot of these the baffler as great. Might have to get he hybrid and fairway

Hit the F7+ driver yesterday and it's a huge improvement over the F6+. The look, and most importantly the sound have improved so much. I definitely plan on getting one.

what looks different about it? Thanks

[saffabomber]

The shape seems more rounded and not quite as drawn out at the back end but I really like the way it presents loft. I found even with the loft cranked way down it felt like it'd be easy to get airborne, which it was.

So is there a checkerboard graphic on the crown of the F7?

[saffabomber]

There sure is and it looks very cool!!

[getair23]

The 7/8 wood with rails looks pretty interesting. I'm assuming 21*-24*

[jasonp87]

Man I love my cobra gear now... now they had to make it better wtf! Lol.

 

As for the driver I'll probably be sticking with my F6+ and or getting a LTD. (I love the ltd. and the F6+ feels and sounds miles better if you polyfill or hotmelt it)

 

My F6 Baffler is hands down amazing

 

I also love my F6 3w and F6 hybrid but now thy have tails too... Crap!!!! There's nothing wrong with what I got but I do love me some rails lol.

 

I don't think I'd consider getting a new 3w but the hybrid... but I do hit my hybrid amazing as is... no real need to replace.

 

Bah!!! Damn you cobra!!!

Antoine hit those shafts? How are they?

Which shafts?

[govols]

I may give the 3 wood a look. Just got a new driver and ditched the F6+. It was ok but not an upgrade from the Bio Cell+ at least not for me. Not sure I'll ever ditch my Bio Cell+ 5-7.

[Z1ggy16]

Anybody here hit the baffler woods yet? Looking to replace my SLDR, as is good distance wise, but a little hard to hit off difficult lies on the deck. Was going to get the XR16, but I'm always interested in Cobra.

 

Furthermore, How is that F7 looking against the M line up? Would love to see if anybody tested these head to head, especially if same shaft was used.

[JGalls]

Excited to try the F7 fairway and hybrids due to the baffler technology. The F6 baffler has immediately become my favorite club in the bag. Can do anything with it.

The fuji pro series

[Sef]

I am so glad the speed channel is gone, it looked weird and imo didn't do anything.

[Orange Hog]

I've got the F6 Baffler and love that club. The rails, although not new tech by any means, really work as advertised so I love that they are bringing that to life in the fairway wood and hybrid in this line.

 

The F7 driver, if it performs, could be the one to knock out the M2 from my bag. Obviously has to perform but so far I'm really liking what I'm seeing.

[Jdavenp3]

The F7+ is matte like the new LTD posted correct?

 

 

There sure is and it looks very cool!!

[Stonewalled]

Love the F6 baffler as well, and was thinking the same thing as others have said might have to pay me some retail.

 

Love the look of the new hybrid.

 

Would love it if the 3 wood colour matched the new hybrid.

I hope that Arccos system is optional, or it is an absolute no-go for me. I use Game Golf Classic, because I am actually very happy to have my phone turned off, when I am on the golf course. With that thing in the grip, I couldn't get the Game Golf sensor into it. And I certainly don't want to have my phone in my back pocket all the time when playing golf.

If they have it as the only option, it is exactly the sort of forced blessing I have already grown to hate with a passion in so many software products in the past 15 years.

Shiels f7 review.

 

[TravAz]

Cobra is going to get all my money.

 

F7 one length, f7 fw, f7 hybrid and ill give the f7 driver with the hzrdus yellow a shot at knocking the 815 dbd out of the bag.

Sounds like a $8 grip can solve your dilemma above.

a) Grips are more expensive where I live.

b) I am not a do-it-yourself person, so I need to pay for the installation as well.

c) The gadget is included in the price of the club, which means that I would have to pay for something I neither need nor want. (see above "forced blessing")

 

Which means

d) I, who has been playing Cobra drivers almost exclusively for the past 8 years, will take my business elsewhere

 

And I write this here, in this forum, in the hope that people who make decisions at Cobra read it.

Arccos driver is about $50 on the street which means Cobra is probably paying about $5-7 per unit of that, that goes into each club. My guess is there won't be an option to get it with or without.

As some suggested have a shop install a grip. $5-$10 for grip and anywhere from free to $3 for the shop to install. If you can afford a new driver $5-13 can't be that far of a reach for you to afford. I get it you don't want Arccos in there. I'm the same I use game golf. So it's a quick fix. I either put my Cobra tipped gamer shaft in the F7 head or throw a new grip on the stock shaft and sell the Arccos grip and make some money back on the driver investment.

[jegg]

Stock clubs will come with Arccos grip so you can replace it or just order it with whatever grip you like. Problem solved... The Arccos unit is in the end of grip not the shaft.
