    Return it! I've had zero issues with my replacement head. I've since seen my old head, which is now a demo club, and the paint is completely gone from the entire topline on it.

    Can't imagine you will see the same gains coming from the Epic, but you never know. 915 d2 never was the longest, but was pretty forgiving for me. Now I've found a bomber that's equally, or more forgiving, it's gotta be an advantage. Feel I'm needing every little advantage I can get after...

    In my opinion, a reason it may be more susceptible to the paint chipping is the shape of the head. The leading edges are more curved than most other drivers. Good for speed, but not good, aesthetically, for shots high on the face.

    Epic Flash was about 8 yards longer than my 915 d2. F9 was 13 yards longer and better dispersion-wise. Get fit. Can't see any reason why anyone would buy a brand new driver without doing so.

    About that safety recall.. It's definitely my intention to have it replaced, and always has been. Only a fool wouldn't. I was merely attempting to make the point that manufacturing defects can overrule user error. Been a few people on here insisting my damaged club was solely down to user error...

    OK, OK. I'll accept the recall and have the airbag replaced! I guess they had it fitted in the first place as they know accidents do happen. Not all their customers will be highly skilled drivers, after all.

    I still think the naysayers on here are right, though. Even though the manufacturer have insisted this kind of damage shouldn't occur, it is user error and I should foot the bill. I had something similar with my car of late. Honda contacted me insisting I have my airbag replaced as it is...

    An admission from Cobra that the paint should not have chipped off as it did, after I asked if they could recommend a way to avoid a repeat with the replacement head, in reply to their email asking for it to be sent back to them... Many thanks for your reply. I’m glad that this has been...

    Nope. Purely user error. By even saying that, you're violating the terms and conditions of the skyit-buyit legislation. Prepare to be knocked down a peg or two for your post.

    I completely agree. User error. Just seen the error of my ways and sent my new used driver off to DR Congo to be used by an up and coming young golfer in one of the poorest countries in the world. I really shouldn't be playing golf if I can't constantly hit the centre of the face. I feel like...

    Just had Ricky Fowler on the phone. He's livid as Cobra have just cut his contract by £3m in light of recent events. I admit it now, you guys were right, I shoulda bought a sharpie.

    I really hope that doesn't happen. I'm really upset by the thought that I may bankrupt Cobra now, just when they're starting to make exceptionally good drivers.

    The pro who offered me the swap agreed that the damage is more than you would expect from skying one shot. I imagine Cobra thought similar or they wouldn't have asked me to return the club. I get the feeling that even if Cobra announced a mass recall due to manufacturing issues with the paint on...

    Your point was that new golf clubs are more expensive because I swapped a damaged head for an undamaged one. That was completely inaccurate, and therefore irrelevant. Completely lost with the middle part of your reply. As for the insult, yes it possibly was only in my mind, but my morals and...
