I bought this driver for two seperate reasons. One is I have owned a Cobra driver before. Two I bought my original Cobra Driver because my game was really starting to suffer, just as it is now. I bought the Cobra S3 Max Driver with an 11.5 degree face, and the Blur shaft with senior flex. I am 69 years old and I've finally had to admit that I don't finish my swing with my belt buckle facing the target like I used to, which tends to make me hit most of drives to the right, even though I don't slice the ball. With my new Cobra S3 my draw is back and I leave most of my drives in the right center of the fairway. I tried some other new drivers with 10.5 and 11.5 degree heads, including some with adjustable heads and I lost too much yardage. With the S3 I'm not loosing that yardage. I have more confidence in the Cobra S3 so that I am now taking a much better swing at the ball, with a lot of improvement in my game. My handicap before the S3 was up to 18, but I am sure it will improve this spring and summer. I really like the S3 and am glad I deceided to go back to a Cobra Product. I would recommend the S3 to anyone in my age group because I love it.Read full review
I am a golfer of 35 years experience, currently playing of 16. I have always sliced , on a good day call it a fade. When looking for a new driver, I Googled "best driver for mid handicapper who slices", several responses but the S3 Max stood out. On purchasing the club I could not be happier. I opted for the regular shaft, and whilst no club can cure a slice completely, any type of OK swing the ball goes pretty much where aimed. Put a shocking swing on it and it still goes aray. Distance wise, it is similair to other drivers I have used, however that is probably more the player than the club. Love the club and could not recommend it high enough.
After reading constant reviews on different drivers, I choose the cobra S3 MAX because it had the qualities that were close to the driver that I had made through an on line vender. I'm 65 and not long at all but I can hit it 200. With the S3 max I can now do 230+ STRAIGHT. The offset head and T006 Blur regular shaft suit my swing style. I have 5 different drivers. The 3 that have offset heads are the only ones that I can hit straight or with a slight fade consistently. But I wouldn't trade my cobra for anything. What a fantastic product.
Starting golf at age 64 was challenge enough. Couple that with rheumatoid arthritis from age 45, this presented two minor obstacles for golf. With strong encouragement from friends I purchased a set of used King Cobra clubs, and began playing daily with advice from all, all I played with. Nine months later with constant study, tryouts of various club brand and types, it became clear Cobra had me in mind when designing this club. My game is 10 strokes better with the complete set of S3MAX/Hybrids. The driver gives me added distance even with a slow swing speed. Thank you Cobra, you will have my loyalty for life.Tracy
I purchased this driver because my current driver, also a Cobra, was about 10 years old. Since I was also 10 years older I felt that a newer driver with a higher loft and a more flexible shaft would add distance to my drives. I am very pleased with my selection. I'm hitting the ball longer and straighter, although there is plenty of room for improvement and my part. The offset of this driver also helps prevent slicing which I had started to do with some regularity. I have tried drivers by other manufacturers over the past couple of years, but have not found any that I like as well as the Cobra.
