 Now I love it when a new product it's the market But I love it when it's a new product that's totally different than anything. We've seen before and I think it's fair to say Cobra have just done exactly that Now I say Cobra have done exactly that but there are a few others that have cropped up in recent weeks I've seen Cleveland have brought something out similar. I've seen Wilson have brought something out similar But this is the t-rail from Cobra. I'm gonna close look at it It is in theory a real good option for a lot of average golfers And we're gonna see how it fairs in the hands of this average golfers. Let's some golf balls. I'll tell you my thoughts We'll get some numbers And we'll do an overall evaluation is the Cobra t-rail the new setup for an average golfer Let's find out so like I said I like to see when someone does something just a little bit different and especially when it's aimed at trying to help an Average golfer and aim in terms of making a game that a little bit easier and hopefully making that game a little bit more enjoyable The big deal that you're gonna have or at least I've got is whether or not you can accept the change in the looks of this Because it's far from traditional. I would say it's a cross. It's a hybrid and it's a cross between a hybrid and an iron and It's a very unusual look as you can see with the images I've thrown in front of you now We've got what is in effect a very very thick top line and then a bulbous back And it is very very different and I think that that's the thing that For me who has stood over golf clubs for many years looking at a traditional shape Can I accept that as being an iron and that's the first bit? I'll tell you very shortly when we start addressing a golf ball in terms of technology It's really about it's hybrid technology if you like it's about being able to push that CG far back With that bulbous head so that's going to help us with launching that ball up We've got the usual things in In terms of across the club face high ball speeds It's interesting. It's a forged face on this thing as well So it'd be interesting to see what it does in terms of sound and it's very much a progressive set again In terms of the size of head shape and it gets even bigger and more hybrid like towards that lower end of the bag Don't oh, let's mention T-Rail because that's all important isn't it T-Rail for me when I tried the hybrid in the F9 earlier on This part of the year was really interesting when you got into the rough Fine from the fairway in terms of surf interaction when you got into the rough It was a real help and that again is something that features very strongly within this product And I think helping from we I think it's fair to say a few of us will get in the rough Helping and assistance in getting that ball out the rough and getting it airborne is where T-Rail for me Was very impressive in the F9 hybrids. Let's see how it translates into this iron Hybrid combo. Anyway, let's get in some golf balls. I'll give you my opinion Right as ever before we get this started. I'm always interested in your opinions It's far more important than mine to be quite honest with you and in terms of looks Let's get some comments down below Could you game this style of golf club? So forgetting the fact that it's the co-reversion because like I said, there's a couple more that are peering If you've not seen them they're out there Could you gain this product? And it's a big big question because for me first of all sat behind them board I like the color it's black. It's it's far removed from the from the standard chrome We'd like to see it's a nice finish in terms of the quality of it a gloss back T-Rail system the underneath it's okay. It's all right, but That top line is is already big and bulky and then you've got that extra bit of bulbous weight at the back I think on a personal level. I would slightly struggle with it visually. It is a thing for me I don't know I think if the performance was really that good then obviously it's something I could grow to like but on immediate thoughts in Terms of shelf appeal would I walk in and pick this one off the I don't know Maybe if I was inquisitive that's but it's not really catting the eye Let's say but like I said more importantly, what do you think? Couple of things before I go on to I see here's a golf ball. I promise you I will do soon Seven iron lofted at 30 degrees. It's not ultra strong in terms of its loft I'm using a steel shaft, but there are some very lightweight graphite shafts available. So that's sort of Graphite shaft this head combination again I think it's really looking that sort of slower swing speed But for me, I really struggled I did try the graphite shafts, but they're ultra light and they're 50 gram shaft It was very very light I struggled with it a little bit We need a steel shaft in terms of the numbers I collect and like I said I'll I'll hit some golf balls the first thing I've noticed because I haven't had many balls off camera But the first thing I noticed is the head weight It certainly feels that there's you can feel the weight in the head and again It's sort of I don't mind that because I like to kind of it kind of it improves my tempo if any so I don't like I like to feel where that club head is throughout the swing But you certainly feel like you've got a hybrid in your hands if you like Rather than and I'd say heavier than a hybrid as well, but rather than an iron in your hand. Anyway The other issue I've got with it Not to start off with too many negatives is a little bit of offset there, which again, I'd struggle with from a visual Now with all that said and done and I've hit some balls off camera already Let's get to the performance aspect and that ball was pretty decent I can tell you and I will if we can if I can get to a stage I can earn enough money off this damn channel I promise you will get some software where you can see this ball flight But for the time being you'll have to just do with my explanation But again really good ball flight and like I said the ones that have hit off camera This thing is so easy to hit it's incredible and I mean so easy I can put half a swing on this thing and it'll do a job for me seriously The thing I can't do is I can't put when I see half a swing I can't do anything other than flight it in the way it's intended to which is high launching It's a system in there. Can I keep a ball down? No, is it the type of club that would be in the hands of someone who's looking to flight a ball lower No, it's not it does exactly what it says on the tin Like I said an easy swing there. That's that one where again, I finished off down that left-hand side But just I've just again off camera and with this offset I really struggle to do anything but get that ball starting off slightly down that left-hand side Which is something I would have an issue with Let's hit one more ball I mean the ball I like sound Sound and feel because I just picked up on it then Fantastic, I mean it really is it's nothing like what I would expect and When I just swung through the ball when I've got over the fact that I'm just looking down on something I find incredibly weird when I hit the ball when I swing through the club absolutely fantastic It really is and the performance numbers I know are going to be right up there the ball flies out It's almost it's this thing again. It's the same old tell that we've done a lot of videos of late It's that situation where can you overcome something that is so alien to you? But in reality would be a massive help to you and that's the reality because I can't see I haven't played this out on the Serve I don't know whether T-Rail cuts through to if I can tell you it worked in terms of the F9 hybrids last year Can I so I can't I can't vouch for that, but I can't see it being a negative either but in terms of Club on ball slipped a little bit there look absolutely solid and the sound is fantastic Little bit sharp, but it's by no means anything that would bother me whatsoever Quite surprising in terms of the whole package there is really decent to be fair. So in terms of playing shots Fantastic, let's see what it did in terms of the numbers and what have we got Right, okay, let's summarise this one nice and quickly because I think you've got the opinion in terms of the performance But how did it do in terms of numbers and they ended up quite it in quite a few shots on this one to be fair to get a Good ratio of numbers and here they are in front of you now Okay So first thing to note is that ball speed in relation to club head speed was really very good indeed I'm very consistent again across the club face. That was the really impressive part Spin again from this type of club amazed 5-3 on average spin. There's a couple of low spinners in there in the 4,000 mark that you'd be a little bit concerned with for those who are spin obsessed But look at the performance in terms of carry distance, but more importantly not the carry distance itself Which was 170 which was really good number and in terms of the loft 30 degree loft in terms of the type of product I've got in my hands 170 where expected to be at the top end of it, but look how consistent it was That's the bit that interests me these clubs are often criticized for the kind of the flyers The variables in terms of their performance But for me again an average golfer who's going to find all different areas in that club face I would imagine then over that cross section of numbers to get that consistency in terms of that carry distance I thought was a fantastic number to be honest with you like I said 170 overall yet We had a long ball in there But overall it was pretty much where they want it to be again launching at 18.5 a couple of those sort of Lower launching balls have impacted on that because overall my what I seen basically out there was it's a very high launching Ball flight so don't be put off by summoning peak height I mean like you I mean as you can see 99 in terms of peak height And you can see a couple got right up there and that descent angle of 48 degrees So that tells you where it's at so in summary it's high launching fast ball speeds across the club face Must have been some forgiveness across the club face because I hit it over a wide number of golf shots And it maintained it and kept it up there very very easy to use can put half a swing on and get the ball out there This club is without doubt if you can get over the looks of it if you can get over the ego elements This is without doubt a club that would suit a lot of golfers out there So all I can say is forget my opinion as ever get out there give it a try for yourself And let me know what you think of this Cobra product but for right now Cobra are doing some interesting things and it's a real interesting product and Yeah, it's a big thumbs up from me even though. I think for me. It's probably not one-eyed game But massive thumbs up all the same. Anyway, as ever. Thank you for watching comments down below and I'll see you all very soon
