Just bought a Cobra DS-Adapt 2 hybrid, let's see what unfolds

Date: May 4th, 2026 8:16 PM Author: Paralegal Marandi (Death, death to the IDF!) the 2025 hybrid of the year according to mygolfspy tyvm (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5863654&forum_id=2...#49865307) |
Date: May 4th, 2026 8:43 PM Author: TurboGrafx-67 Been using the ds adapt max K and it's amazing. More forgiving than ping g440 max and way better feel off the face
Might have to look into their irons |

Date: May 4th, 2026 8:58 PM Author: Paralegal Marandi (Death, death to the IDF!) Nice dude. Cobra is doing amazing things right now.
I went back and forth between the 2H and 3H, but figure I can adjust loft down to 19 (from 17) in case I ever want to adjust my gapping. |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:29 PM Author: Judas Jones That’s lofting up, not down (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5863654&forum_id=2...#49865535) |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:30 PM Author: Judas Jones Thinking of building out a 12 degree one as my thriver/mini driver. 12 degree g425 has been good but I hate the sound and feel (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5863654&forum_id=2...#49865539) |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:36 PM Author: Paralegal Marandi (Death, death to the IDF!) I don’t understand mini drivers unless it’s just a driver replacement like the 2H will be for me. When would you use it over a driver? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5863654&forum_id=2...#49865550) |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:46 PM Author: TurboGrafx-67 I use my Callaway ti340 on super narrow fairways or dog legs. I could use my 4W (17*) for almost the same distance, but the mini launches higher and straighter with a more predictable flight off the tee
Also use the mini from rough to bump it back onto fairway if it's in a crispy lie or under a tree with a 1/4 swing when I need to stay low to avoid branches |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:47 PM Author: Paralegal Marandi (Death, death to the IDF!) I see (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5863654&forum_id=2...#49865571) |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:50 PM Author: TurboGrafx-67 Also would only consider Callaway for mini driver
Titleist and TM mini drivers seem LESS forgiving and no idea why anyone gets those |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:51 PM Author: Judas Jones This would be strictly off the tee and would take the 3W place in my bag.
45.5" 9-10 degree Driver on Trackman is 290 max, ~265 average on a good strike.
43.75-44" 13 degree 2W/thriver is 270 max, 250 average on a good strike.
Use the 2W on tighter holes, holes where there's no great benefit to an extra 15-20 yards, holes that favor a draw. Generally about a 50-50 split on par 4s and 5s between the 2, other than the odd par 4 that forces an iron or hybrid. |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:56 PM Author: Paralegal Marandi (Death, death to the IDF!) Nice man. Hopefully one day I can achieve this level of complexity. Right now my driver and 3w are unreliable so I hit a 5H off all par 4s and 5s. It’s a reliable 170 yard club for me but I’m hoping the 2H can get me up near 200.

Date: May 4th, 2026 10:00 PM Author: Judas Jones I can't hit a 3w off the deck with any consistency. Off the tee, like most mid handicappers, I get more benefit from the larger face of the driver than hitting a 3W. Hence the "2W" build as a secondary club off the tee. I hit ~10% more fairways with the 2W than driver in the 30 rounds I've had this set up, so I think it makes sense. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5863654&forum_id=2...#49865608) |

Date: May 4th, 2026 10:26 PM Author: Paralegal Marandi (Death, death to the IDF!) The 3w is such a shitty club man wtf is even the point with all these viable options. I feel like so many people carry it but very few can hit it at all. Gonna go throw mine in the trash brb (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5863654&forum_id=2...#49865701) |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:40 PM Author: TurboGrafx-67 They're crazy cheap right now too but I only see 12* in women's
Which might be ideal for a shorter shaft "mini" config
The ff33 adapter also lets you loft up the 10.5 to 11.9 or 12.5 while keeping standard lie

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:52 PM Author: Judas Jones I don't want to change face angle too much and add a left bias start line though. Would rather a 12 lofted up to 13 or kept at 12, depending on what the launch conditions look like. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5863654&forum_id=2...#49865587) |
|
Date: May 4th, 2026 11:48 PM Author: TurboGrafx-67 The whole point of ff33 is that it can change loft without any impact to face angle at all
That's what I meant by keep standard lie. You can also adjust the loft up and down in similar amounts and simultaneously bend the face upright or flat in increments of ~.7
Basically the ds adapt is taking all the guess work out of BUYING, while creating a possible downside of paralysis of options in the TUNING |

Date: May 4th, 2026 9:55 PM Author: Judas Jones There's always crazy good deals on cobra stuff. I sold my 2 year old ping i230s for $300 more than I paid for "demo" cobra king tours that were still in the wrapper. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5863654&forum_id=2...#49865592) |
