Wanna have a crack at those Cobra one length irons too. Reckon the long irons would be sweet as, but the short irons would take some getting used to.

There was one on sale up at Mt Osmond in Pro Shop for $200. Used it for the round. Didnt mind it. The new Cobra drivers are released in Feb. So with the new model out im looking at an F7 at a bargain price....hopefully

Added a f6 cobra baffler

Had a gift card to use.
Looking at using this on approach shots into the green with the higher loft and weight settings.
My typical ball flight is low....so i get a lotta run with my shots.
Need to find something to get the balls up and stop!!

I am of the opinion Spargo has an "extensive inventory" of many, many products that he has failed to deliver...... err sorry "acquired" over the years.

Picked up 2nd hand cobra f8 driver

Gave it a test run at driving range at west beach. Hitting into gale force winds on the top deck. All bottom booths were taken. Surprisingly busy, i thought for a thursday lunchtime.

Anyway, it seemed to work out quite nice. Had it 11.5D setting. And as expected and hoped, they did drift left. But when they hit the middle (yes 1 or 2) they just sprung off the face magnificently.

Only issue is, playing Willunga saturday....not sure I'll need it there. But already worked out the holes at Lady Bay where it will work...or should...

Always a good idea to throw a demo club, so you know how far they fly when you buy the real thing!

I bought a Jarrod Lyle Titleist bucket hat which doesn’t fit my fat bonce.
It cost me $55 + $15 postage. I’ll take $50 for it & get it to you for free. Still has the tags on it.
These things are pretty rare & there’s a pre order through Challenge for the next batch in March.
Great Christmas present, great cause. Size L/XL
