3W regular graphite

Summary:
Like the driver in this series this is the most forgiving fairway wood I've hit. Very high, long and straight. Face is deep enough to be solid on the tee, but shallow enough that a tight lie in the fairway isn't an issue either.

cobra f speed driver

Summary:
if like me your natural ball flight is a draw then dont make the same mistake of buying a club that has a massive draw bias.. i should have gone with my gut feeling when i first held the club and saw just how closed the face was at address.. anyway i bought the club because all my other clubs and irons are cobra( which i love).over the next year i spent time duck hooking after duck hooking. i moved the ball back and back in my stance to try and get the face neutral at impact but couldnt get any consistency and at the end i stood over the ball not having a clue where the ball was going to end up.
At the end i gave up trying with the f speed and sold it on ebay. with the money i got for it i bought a taylor made r5 neutral bias driver and have not looked back since.
on conclusion im not saying the f speed is a bad club, far from it, its a very good club if u have a tendency to slice the ball or your a straight hitter trying to find a bit of draw for that extra few yards.
if this sounds like u then give this club a try. but if your like me and you already hit a draw i wouldnt advise u to get the f speed.
with hidesight i should have bought the x speed driver which dosent have the closed face.... silly me.....

Customer Service:
i have many cobra clubs and pieces of equipment and they are all a very high spec make.

Cobra F Speed

Summary:
After 7 years break; I came back to golf last summer and deceided I needed to update my equipement. Looking for a bit more forgiving thing to gain confidence both off and on the tee.
I choose F speed due to my tendency of pull (too much body movement). I am really happy with them (3 & 5; Stiff flex). Easy to play, do not really need to hit hard to get the distance and I forgot my pull & fade. Need to get used at adress as face is a bit closed and normally hit straigth ligth draw shots; Bad shots (rarely)mean hook. Find easy for intermediate golfer. I have now much more confidence on woods play and use a lot to hit the narrow dog legs at my home club.
Pros: Easy to play / fair price
Cons: Need to get used to closed face

Customer Service:
No need

F-Speed 3 Wood

Summary:
Tried this club at my local range. Ball just spings off the face. I have a big bertha 3 wood at the moment and i think i will be investing in the F/Speed. Probably should not be bought off the net unless you know all of your launch conditions. Overall not the best wood I have ever hit but, definetly the best custom fit out there at the moment. Gets 3 stars for value only because of the price. 5 stars for perfomance. Only problem i found was the fact that it was very hard to fade the ball.

Customer Service:
Not the best. Did a custom fit for cobra carbon cb irons and it took 6 weeks to get them.

f speed stiff 3wood

Summary:
ok, i bought this bucause im superficial... i had to match the fspeed driver i had purchased. this is a great club to hit off the tee. hitting from tight turf takes some getting used to because of the tall face. the visualy effect it has is that because of the tall face i subcounciously was trying to help the ball get airborne resulting topped shots. when you learn that this clubface has a low sweetspot hitting it on the low end of the face results in the best outcome. once i swung this like my low profile taylormade 580 3wood the fall jump up and went. my first round with this i used it 4 times twice on the same hole and i topped it twice. very next hole was a 286 yrd dog leg left par 4 and that i caught well off the tee and was in a pot hole sand trap about 15 yards from the green. i didnt hit it 270 i dont think since i cut the corner but it was closer to the green than i thought when i hit it more like 250. i finally did catch a good stike from the turf and it flew around 220 and rolled off about 20 yards into a stream . i gave this a 5 rating and not penallizing it to a 4 because not hitting this well of the deck is user error being afraid of the tall face thinking you have to hit it high on the face like with the driver
