Pretty sweet.

Look a lot like his old Satin MBs.

I love the raw look and the stamped lofts. Awesome!

There must be Pro style fwys coming too. RF is playing the 13* version. I wonder if the Pro models are going to be unveiled at the PGA merchandise show?

Thanks for the interview Rob. That will be a good fit for both of them. Rickie has to love the colors. :-)

Yea in that video he made a comment along the lines of, "similar to what I was playing." I originally thought Rickie would struggle a bit this year but I think hes doing it right by moving to Cobra. He gets a set of blades that are tweaked exactly for him, playing his Vokeys it looks like so I'm sure he'll be just fine. I wonder if he will have the Cameron in the bag.

The clubs are looking nice. I like the bag color scheme. I am glad to see that he didn't go with a solid orange bag.

The Cameron was still in the bag.

The design looks good, but the paintfill looks tacky.

Sticks look nice hope Rickie is able to produce some wins this year. I think him getting away from Titleist is going to be a positive thing for him. Cobra is building these clubs around him which I believe will elevate his game. Looks like hes going to still use the best of Titleist which is the wedges, putter, and ball. Can't blame him for that one but I'm sure in time the Vokey's will go.

I'm pretty sure that "proto" means there's going be a long wait.

If that's the case then Cobra will miss the boat big time. Strike now while the iron is hot because those current retail amp irons will not sell to the better golfers.

Looks good to me. A little squarer toe and they would be perfect.

I don't think these will sell to better golfers either. Their past blade offerings haven't sold at all, and that was without flashy colors.

If any of you guys are on twitter, Rickie just posted pictures of his new clubs. Pretty crisp looking to be honest. I'll never be a fan of Cobra golf, but it fits him perfectly. He just said he's always going to be a Titleist ball and glove ambassador.

Like the bag color, but the blades and writing on them are two busy. They'd be much better if they just said Cobra and had the loft number

One hybrid now? Must be 3-9 iron because it looks like 4 Vokey wedges.
