I own a set of Cobra's 3100 I/H I bought as a shop's demo-set when I started playing seriously two years ago. As time brings new developments I thought it was a good idea to have a look into the new irons, so I went for a fitting session to try out a bunch of newbies and compare with my own 3100's. The only cadidate not available for testing was Taylormade, but they are pricy so not really on my wish list.
Below is a list of new and used cobra FP irons for sale.
After warming up with my own 6-iron I hit several balls on the launch monitor with each club. Later I could compare my feel with the results. Definite no-go's were the Wilson Ci7 (no feeling, balls all over the place). The Callaway X-20 felt good, slightly heavier than my Cobra but ball flight and distance were good. The Ping G10 was not my club, pushed most shots to the right and the feedback was a bit dead. Apart from that they look terrible with a tacky orange shaft and rather plump head, but this is off course secondary to performance.
I already knew I could not hit the Mizuno MX-25 and I did not like the MX-17's so I skipped Mizuno to move on to the Cobra FP 2008. Slightly heavier feel than my old 3100's but for me it was by far the best club. Very consistant distance and minimal spread in direction. Ball flight was slightly lower than the Callaway X-20. Good feel and as a bonus nice looks, an improvement compared to the older Cobra designs.
Just to make sure I also tested the S9 but for some reason I had more trouble hitting these than the FP although they are supposed to be easier to hit. Strangely enough I had the same experience with the 3400 X/H three years ago when both sets were available for sale as demo-sets.
