New Cobra Equipment

[medwayjon]

Had a hit with the new FP's and UFI's today (I shouldn't have cos of injury) and just thought I would pass comment.

The FP's are essentially the same club with cosmetic changes, they look like a Titleist (both acushnet so obvious why) in terms of headshape whilst keeping a deeper cavity. I found them crisper to hit compared to my FP's. Only other shape difference os that the sole is a tad thinner.

The UFI's were what they set out to be, forgiving irons when struck and they give confidence at address. Not the most "feely" irons but easy to hit and long too. I don't like the aesthetics of them and the price tag of £600 (double that of FP's) is a bit high for what they are. When I pay that much for irons It will be for a set of Titleist.

I have also heard that Cobra are bringing out a revised version of the Speed LD drivers. This will be music to a lot of peoples ears (literally) as Madandra will vouch for the noise made by the original.

Jon, When do they hit the high street & what is the RRP on the FP's?

Oh yes, the UFI as appeared on the video blog with jez and luke.

UFO might be more apt!!! (undeniably flying off the face)

can't get enough of some of this new kit.....just need to find a place to test out one of these HS 9s or M speed.

FP's are filtering through now, they are £299 for steels 5-SW. The older version haven't been reduced as yet so obviously shops with the old ones in stock will want to out them first.

Really nice looking club though.

Shame you arent down my end Dave as the guys here have them in stock. If you have a direct golf near you I think that they still have them,.
