First look: Cobra Baffler Hybrid Iron Combo Set

Published

on

Cobra Golf is celebrating its 40th anniversary with the release of its Baffler Hybrid Iron Combo set. Released in 1975, the original Baffler was golf’s first modern utility wood. The Baffler Hybrid Iron Combo targets the super game improvement crowd, aimed at players that are looking for easy to hit hybrids and irons that deliver maximum forgiveness, higher launch and improved distance.

Hybrids 3 through 7 are available with lightweight graphite shafts, while irons are available with either lightweight graphite or steel in 4 iron through Sand Wedge. Stock sets come with three hybrids that replace the 4 iron, 5 iron and 6 iron, as well as (non-hybrid) 7 iron through Gap Wedge.

    I brought these 2 months ago and they do everything as advertised! They might not look like the pros clubs but than neither does my swing! These clubs make the game easier and much more enjoyable! And if a golf snob has a problem with how my clubs look than its their problem, frankly I couldn’t care less what they think!! In addition their game is most likely no better than mine, snobs who needs them anyway!!!

      Rich, I am with you on this. Unless you are a jock with single digit handicap, there is no point in using hard to hit clubs. I am 73 and play to a 14 handicap and I am looking at these Cobra irons.

      I found these on sale for $175 3h,4h 5-SW. Perfect clubs! Ive dropped a few strokes each round and im now getting my “birdie” (actual par) on each hole. Ive only been golfing 2 years this coming January. I recommend these for the weekend golfer who is serious about getting serious eventually, but doesnt have a Pros budget.

    This is what I’ve been looking for. I’ll be first in line when they go on the market in my neck of the woods.

    Forget about the look — that is in the eye of the beholder. I just hit these and they are really good. I have placed an order.

    I really like the look of these. Made to make the game a bit easier and more fun. All the blade-lovers can stick with theirs…I’m not good enough to handle them. But I’ll be buying these.

    These will be fantastic – can’t wait to buy a set. I’ve tried similar years earlier in Japan and they were so much fun to play.

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

  • PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
  • driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300.  The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length.  I am playing a Ventus Red 70.   I play 70 grams in my fairways.  I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee.  When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time.  So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck.  The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
  • JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
