Cobra Speed LD F Driver Golf Club

Recently obtained the 10.5 degree LD F-Speed, graphite regular flex. While hugely forgiving, this beast is the longest driver I've ever hit. I was getting around 220-240 yards with another brand 2006 model 460 cc driver, but now I routinely reach 250-270 yards. Compared with the 2007 Callaway Big Bertha 460 it hits longer with slightly better consistency. I didn't notice a draw bias like some of the latest drivers, but that might just be my swing. The LD is great for low, boring drives despite the 10.5 loft. Even on mis-hits you'll still be in or near the fairway. Awesome club!

If you read the reviews you'll see many mentions of the odd sound that this driver makes at impact. It sounds like you're hitting an empty beer can. No joke. People on the driving range will turn around to see what you're hitting, but when they see you bombing drives to the back of the range they'll want one too. Great job by Cobra in designing a big hitter for us mid-to-high handicappers.

I have an illness: I can't stop buying drivers on eBay. If I see a great deal I can't help myself. I'm really sick. No kidding. I've bought a bunch of Titleists, Pings, Cobras, Taylor-Mades, you name it. I'm too embarrassed to tell you how many I've bought over the years. I wait a year+ for those new $399 drivers to sell used for around $100 and I scarf one up. If I like the newly purchased club better than what's in my bag then it becomes my new driver. This process was all going along just fine until I bought a Cobra Speed LD two+ years ago. Now, no matter what I buy, the Cobra ends-up staying in my bag. It's stuck there. Nothing I've bought since can beat it, and believe me I've tried. It did leave my bag for about a month once when my son, who is on his school's golf team, tried it out then promptly stole it, forcing me to play with a different driver. After two rounds I bought another Speed LD on eBay. I had no choice. So what's so good about a Speed LD? When the club head contacts the ball it gives me that buttery feeling, like I've just hit the exact sweet spot and the ball has just taken off at the speed of sound. It's so consistent, I guess the sweet spot must be enormous. In comparison it makes all other drivers seem like their head is cracked and this has really screwed up my new driver culling process. It's even got me feeling like an idiot now every time I buy a new (used) driver, because the new purchase ends up being in vain. In fact, if I had any cotrol over my addiction to trying new drivers then I'd stop, because the enjoyment is essentially gone. If, like me, you like switching drivers often, then don't buy a Speed LD. It ruins everything.

i bought this club because it was $115 all in, fantastic deal, probably the best one on Ebay at the time. Took the club to the range and like the other review mentioned, it sounds like an out of key T-Rex, horrid. Club doesnt carry as far as the HS9 in my opinion and why the replaced the HS9 with this is beyond me. My original f-speed driver was very accurate, the HS9 was longer but this is a combination of both, i was hoping for an f-speed with distance but it just holds up a bit too much for me. the 55g shaft again is great, gives the club a great feel and nice balance. Aldila and Cobra are a great combination for a driver. The YS shafts that Cobra use are in no comparison the balance is all over the place although i do like them in my 3 and 5 wood. The look of the LD is very attractive similar to the TM burner and thankfully the headcover is easier to handle than the dreadful HS9 cover that barely fit. One downer, the hozzle came out and i had to send it back to Cobra to get it fixed cos my local pro didnt want to wreck it, cost $40 booooo. To summarise and i'm quite happy with whats in the bag, 3 and 5 wood in HS9 with YS 5.6 shafts, a 7 wood in f-speed with the Aldila NV-F shaft and an LD 9 degree driver that i think i'll trade for an HS9 if i can find one with the NV-F 55 gram shaft.

I had previously tried a Cobra Speed LD F driver, and liked it, but exchanged it for another driver. I realized what a good driver the Cobra was, after a period of time, so I found a the same model driver on E-bay, for a very good price. I believe because of the Graphite Design shaft, it is probably the straightest driver I have ever hit, and I have been playing 50+ years. It gives a still strong 64 year old accuracy and very good distance. The purchase thru e-bay was excellent, with an almost brand new driver now in my bag. Well worth the time and effort to purchase. Thanks!

I bought this head based on many reviews and visual observances of owners. It has been outfitted with a Grafalloy Blue regular shaft and has proven to be a wise investment from the first swing. It matched my original driver's distance at first then got better as the round progressed. The second round seconded the first round's. Distance and accuracy improved. I have no regrets in purchasing this product.
