Agree.... my FTB irons from the 2018 MC look as good as they did after 1 month in the bag. The DBM finish is the real deal.

Lots of solid shots out of the FTBs today. Best was easily a 6 iron that needed to be laser straight trying to set up for an eagle and it executed perfectly.
I'll have to grab some photos next time I am on course to show off the (lack of) wear that I've experienced. As long as I am diligent and clean the heads, I think these could easily make it through a season before some real wear would start to be present. Once again the DBM is about as good as it gets for black finish wear quality.
Also, the sound when you connect with these? Fantastic. Very addictive.
I think with a little care they will stay looking good for more than 1 year. Mine show slight fading on the sole and face but have the DBM has held up really well.
The sound of a well hit ball is really nice with these clubs.

I got out for 27 holes at a challenging par 3 course and had my best ball striking day by far with these. It didn't hurt that earlier in the week I had a lesson with my instructor who really helped me understand a flaw in my swing that was causing some inconsistencies. I was hitting really nice compressed shots and had a straight ball flight with the occasional fade. I did not hook a single ball which is huge progress for me. The ball flights were solid into the wind and the round was fun with all the shots hitting on or around the greens. Even with all the forced carry holes I did not lose a single ball and scored well.

The distances are good. I have a problem with overswinging and working with a coach I am stopping at what seems like 3/4 of a swing yet the distances are solid and the contact is more consistent. Looking at Arccos the only odd thing is that my king black SW is going further than my FTB GW. I'm not sure if that's me or if I need to get the gapping checked on the GW but everything else looks good. These really feel good with the modus3 105 for me.Sounds like a great experience my dude. How are you liking the distances you're finding with them?
I am seriously pondering pulling the 120 Tour V's and throwing in my favourite 110 Tour V's to try and bring down the swing weight a bit. I've gotten so used to a lighter club head in my irons and I think it really benefits my swing to get through earlier and easier.

Yeah.. Both the king black SW and the FTB GW have the Modus3 105t stiff shafts in them. The SW is averaging 103 which is right where I expect it with a full swing. The GW is averaging 98 and the longest I've hit it according to Arccos is only 104. It has been windy so maybe it is ballooning up or something and more swings might average it out but Arccos shows I've come up short 100% of the time with the GW. I normally hit my GW 110-115 on a smooth swing. My PW is averaging 127 which is where I expect it. I'm going to get the loft checked out and keep tracking it.Same shafts and everything? That's interesting. I'm going to need to spend more time with mine, but I am also really not having much luck with the GW. I get some massive distance out of everything above the 9 iron though.
Called Cobra customer service. In less than 10 minutes I had an overnight label to Carlsbad. Hopefully get it back before the weekend.

I mean the real win would involve epoxy not failing after like 2 months but since I just got a FedEx notice that the club I sent out for repair Monday morning will be delivered back to me tomorrow I won't get too upset.Dude, that's fantastic. Another CS win.

I've done an awful lot of clubwork in my time down in the Canadan Custom Shop (lol), and I can say that sometimes, it happens. No fault of anyone, just a bad bond and life goes on.
Sooner or later it happens to everyone. I don’t draw any conclusions from it.
I'd be a lot more worried if CS ignored nolan. Fortunately, they rock.
I had a good round yesterday where I shot a personal best +13 which could have been better if I hadn't bled a bunch of shots with some ugly closing holes. It was quite windy but the well struck shots were not affected much by the wind. I was getting much better contact and did not have any bad hooks with my irons. Pictured is one of my memorable holes where I pulled my drive left into the trees. My ball was sitting down in the rough and I needed to elevate quickly to get up over the trees and somehow I pulled the shot off and found the left side of the green. I still believe these are some of the best looking irons that Cobra has ever created and the performance is solid!!
