Long time reader of this website, first time poster. I have to agree with the previous poster. This club has got it however you want to define it. I use the 9 degree with the Mitsui-Rayon 45g shaft in regular flex, perfect for my low 90's swing speed. This club is so easy to hit with all but very bad swings giving very good results. I'm not a big person, actually quite short at 5'5" but I have hit drives over 300 yards with this club and consistently 260 plus with a decent swing. The Rayon shaft works perfect with this club and the 9 degree loft gives plenty of height, more so than any 9 degree club I have hit previously. I have tried many drivers in my 35 years of golfing, but this one has performed better for me than any other. Cobra should have stayed with this one longer, because the combination of the multi-layer head and the Rayon shaft is a winner. Oh did I mention that I paid $69 for this great driver on Ebay? Best golf purchase I ever made!

You read the reviews for any driver here and they're all glowing "the best driver I've ever hit" is the common phrase, so you never know what to believe. Please, do yourself a favor and believe this one. For once, it is true. This driver has magic, mojo, whatever you want to call it, this driver has IT.

I build my own clubs with components and use high end shafts. I also buy many used OEM drivers. Usually, I have 10-12 drivers in my basement. I've probably owned over 100 drivers in the past 15 years. Of the lot, this one is the king.

Why?

Someone said it in an earlier review - consistency. I have other drivers that are longer, and some that are straighter, but none that are really combine both. This one does - it has excellent distance AND tremendous accuracy. The size is right - it just looks perfect. The stiff stock Mitsu-Rayon 45g shaft is by far the best OEM offering out there - great feel, perfect loading with the head - it's in sync and a great match for this head.

The thing that really separates this one from the bunch is how well it works when I'm not swinging well. I have lots of other drivers that work great when my swing and tempo is grooved, but they fail when I get fatigued or am just having a bad day. The Cobra does not - this club produces an acceptable result with a lousy swing, and a great result with a great swing. This club has forgiveness in spades like no other.

Well, that's it. I don't know what else I can say other than this one is the cream of the crop. Believe this review, it is not exagerrated at all, I have no reason to do that. Just so happy with this club that I wanted to share.

Sick nasty stick. Stellar sweet spot that makes the ball grow wings. Any dudes out there who don't have it, need it for an indomitable round.

Have had it for a week, no need.

One of the best drivers I have ever played & I have played many. The new Adam drivers, TaylorMade R5, Cobra 380, Cobra 400SZ, Cobra 440SZ, Cobra 454 Comp, Cleveland Launcher 460 comp, Cleveland 460 Ti & I could go on & on. I think you get the message. Any the longest driver and most forgiving! What else is left. If you don't try this driver you are passing on something that is great!

An absolute war hammer. This thing absolutely smokes the cover off the ball. I can't work any other club in my bag besides my driver, 7 and 8 irons. It has a very predictable kick and a great feeling face. I switched to it from a Titleist 983E which I had for 1 year, and before that I was hitting a Cleveland Launcher. All great sticks but the Cobra is nuclear.

Never had to use it. Cracked the head on top of the crown where the weld is and Dick's replaced it for me.

IN 20 YEARS OF GOLF THIS IS BY FAR THE EASIEST DRIVER TO HIT I HAVE EVER USED AND I HAVE USED A BUNCH. I TRADED MY FIRST ONE FOR A FRIENDS 983K (AFTER USING 414 I THOUGHT I COULD HIT ANYTHING) I QUICKLY LEARNED HOW STUPID I WAS! I HAVE SINCE BOUGHT ANOTHER 414 WHICH I WILL KEEP FOREVER! P.S. I HAD A 10.5 MY SECOND IS A 9, 10.5 HITS A LITTLE TO HIGH.

This is without a doubt one of the easiest to hit and most consistent drivers I have ever tested and I have tested every major name brand driver. The SL-45 shaft has a low kick which promotes a high but not ballooning launch angle. Distance wise I found it to be as good as any driver I have tried. The key though was consistency. If you want a driver that you can hit straight or with a very moderate draw shot after shot after shot, this is it! While I found the 10.5* model to be very pleasing, because the Mitsubishi SL-45 shaft has a low kick point some may prefer the 9* model. For me this driver is perfect for those not too windy days. On windy admittedly I swap it out for a Titleist 905T which has a lower launch at the cost of just a little distance.

This is best driver I've ever had. I'm 65 with a relatively slow swing yet I hit this Mitsubishi Rayon "stiff flex" driver 230-240 in the air with a slight draw. The trajectory of this 7.5 degree is like a normal 9 degree. The club is light in weight, very easy to swing and has a very large sweet zone. It came with very little "head feel" (C-9 swing weight), so I changed to a WINN W6 Excel grip (43 grams) and added a couple 2" strips of lead tape to the head to get it to D-2 swing weight. The guys I play with are amazed at the results I'm getting. I've missed two fairways in the last two rounds.

I first hit this driver when a playing partner allowed me to take a few swings with it. I was hitting the SS350 and was very happy with.After taking a swing with the Comp I hit one off the toe and was surprised to see it carry about 240. I went to the range after the round and demo-ed this club.It's without a doubt the best driver I've ever hit and I've hit them all.The ball explodes off the face and makes a very satisfying sound to boot.Since owning it I've let many people hit it and they all were amazed. The only negative comment I got was from a scratch golfer who loved it off the tee but didn't feel he could hit it off the deck in the fairway. I never even think about using a driver off the deck but for him it was a factor.I have the stock graphite shaft in a stiff the flex .Try this club!!!

Absolutely Awesome. I was introduced to this club on the driving range by a friend. I was hitting my old faithful Burner Bubble 2 driver averaging my normal 215 (I have never been a long driver, just accurate) when a friend told me to hit his King Cobra SZ 400. I told him I had no desire to do so, but after he persisted I said OK. The first shot was 230 with the sweetest ball flight I have ever managed with a driver. After three more swings with even better results I was awestruck. Another friend who had witnessed this then handed me his SZ 414 COMP. I hit this even better. I bought one three days later and I am averaging 240+ yards and in the fairway! The 25 yards has been the difference between hitting a 7 iron vice a 5 iron approach and Wedges vice 7 irons. I have shaved 4-6 strokes a round. I am hitting a 9 degree with the Misubishi-Rayon Stiff flex which comes stock. The trajectory looks more like an 11 degree, due to the low kick shaft and the weight of the club focused at the bottom. The ball flight has a slight draw bias also in accordance with the club design. The club is very light and you can hit this anywhere on the face and the shot explodes. Simply put this club does what it says. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a great driver to give this a try. I have been so impressed that I have ordered the 3&5 SZ Woods. Thank you Cobra!
