2019 PGA Show Cobra, Flightscope & Misc Demo Day

Konklifer · January 22, 2019

The Cobra Forged MB/CB are as clean at address as they come. And that F9 hybrid looks great.

Is that a new ES launch monitor? You can clearly see the 12 and 14. Looks kinda like the third is a 16?

*Edit* Never mind. I see in another thread it's there and also on the website. Nothing to see here, move along...

Agreed on the Cobra CB and MB, sharp. But that Epon wedge is dead sexy.

Digging the bafflers on the f9 fairway woods.

Took me three looks to understand that pitch fix stick thingy!

How good is Mevo?

That flight scope looks fantastic

Not Sure about that ball mark stick tool thing. I realize the PGA Show has tons, and tons of small companies trying to break into the biz but not sure about this one. It seems to be the "suction cup on the end of putter, but for ball marks tool". From the pics alone it doesn't seem to fix them properly (could be the pics too), but I suppose if someone can't bend over to fix it, its better than nothing.....? Curious what the price point is too. Not sure people who can't fix ball marks naturally, will want to spend extra money on a device to benefit players behind them. But I could 100% wrong.

The idea that the pitch mark could be on your line might help in making this tool more commonplace since it will help you and the groups behind. But I see from their website that they have limited shaft options, so I will wait for an X-Stiff model or the ability to order aftermarket offerings.

I would venture to say that that particular product is geared more toward those of us that work in golf course operations. Remember, the show is "supposed" to be an industry employee only show. There's LOT of stuff there that's for course operations...new point of sale software, etc. This looks more like a variant of the tools we use to repair marks in bulk, at opposed to a consumer oriented tool. I can't tell what actual mechanism it's using to repair the ball mark, but if it's using their 3 pronged style like their "Tour Edition 2.5" and "Fusion 2.5" pocket models, I'd be very interested in picking up a handful of those for my guys here at the course. That method is a very good one for repairing marks.

Chris is right. For maitinance crew to brees through a green. I worked maitinance for my step father all through highschool. This was a job. Handraking bunkers as well as filling divots on tees and fairways.

That sucked carrying a bucket up and down the fairway. I tried doing it from a cart driving back and forth filling from the cart. But of course that didn’t last long!

Thank god I can sell.. haha

I have to agree those Cobra’s look like they have “Onset”. For me I meed every help not hooking the ball. Unless I am buying open faced Tour Issue its impossible to find open clubs. But these pics look awesome!
