Oddly enough, I've seen more clubs from the AMP line in people's bags around me than I have Cleveland, Nike, or Callaway. Part of it can be that the AMP stuff stands out so easily, but isn't that their objective? I thought the equipment was good and they did something with the color scheme to grab your attention.

hahaha, I guess so. Good one though, a little rep for ya on that one.
I've experienced the same thing around here. At my home course, I've actually seen very few 2012 model clubs put in play. Last year it seemed that everyone was trying the G15, R11 or the burner 2.0 irons. This year I know of 3 people that bought the 2011 Superfast, 3 with the RBZ, 2 with the Cleveland Classic, two with the Amp and one with a TEE.
I'm actually surprised I have not seen a Classic anywhere outside of THP.
I will say that I practiced at a place early in the year that younger (high school/college) players were at and they were all very interested to see the AMP driver when I was reviewing it. However, most of these kids aren't buying much gear.
I agree to an extent, Donne. I have to wonder if those kids have parents that are buying them stuff though. Still, it's not the same as the guys at clubs that really have money to burn.
Agreed on the tech. I thought the AMP stood up to just about anything out there.
I thought Cobra's marketing campaign was pretty bad. Cobra has many loyal followers that are at retirement age. Those guys aren't known for liking bright colors like Yellow and Orange.
I am nearing that age and honestly,I liked the colors.For an older guy,I like a little flash, and thought they looked good.As ,a side note,I still just ordered a "plain" looking Callaway Razor Fit !
I thought about this thread a bit last night and for me it's simple: I probably would never buy anything from Cobra in 2012. It just doesn't appeal to me and there's too much other stuff that does.
I concur. I won't begin to speculate on their #'s or figures b/c I have no idea where to get them from or what to even compare them too.
I certainly wouldn't trust a rep either. I meet reps all the time and I've never heard one of them mention how their brand is struggling. Funny how they're trying to sell stuff.
