Glad you enjoyed it!
Yeah, that’s where I am with mini’s, on my course there are a handful of holes where it’s a really smart, and fun, play for me.
This has been long awaited. The size component seems like a good fit to me in the current market. The FF33 and what hype has been heard about this club will be enough for me to give it a solid chance to be in my bag in 2026
This is why I’m looking as well the 2 main course I’m a frequent flyer at the mini would be solid to have back in the bag.
Love having another mini option out there. FF33 makes this such a versatile option
When I see one I will try it. Don't think it really suits my game but I will always try something.
Won't lie, a little sad to see RH only, but stoked to see this being a reality for you righties. Great looking club and love the ability to plug in a 3w shaft like that. Having the ff33 on this is awesome to see. Should make for a really versatile club for those that like these. Cool to see!
Yeah, definitely not surprised though. They even resisted making it for righties for a few years because it wasn’t clear if it would sell enough haha. Now we’ll see how well it does with righties
Nice article @Jman ... I am curious about the tidbit you added at the end about compatibility of 3W & Mini shafts. Do you know if this is something exclusive to Cobra or if it's pretty standard w/ others as well?
Also.. if this has already been asked I did indeed skim as I am swamped at the office having been away last week. Apologies if needed.

There’s typically some variance with other mini drivers in terms of adapter, adapter install depth within the heads, and the height of the mini.
Cobra set out with intent to make sure it was something that would be a 1:1 swap in theirs.
That is a pretty cool move by Cobra.
I've been actively playing a MD for a year now and I have a good feel for the Elyte I've been playing. I am, however, looking forward to at least bay hitting this Cobra. I like the thought of dialing the loft up or down with the FF33. Mine is the 11.5 and I'm not so sure I'd like a 13.5 loft but I'd definitely entertain 12.5.
Have you had a chance to demo them yet?Absolutely hyped about getting this in the bag! I should have mine by the end of the month.

Fortunately, thanks to FF33 you could take it to 12.5 or 11.5 without altering the face or lie angle. So so so cool.

Thats the beauty of FF33. I for one like the 13.5 slot, it gives you options to fit the gapping and shot shape you require
Oh, that looks nice! I love my mini driver it is so fun to hit and worthy of a bag spot. Glad to see Cobra coming out with this.
The 13.5 degrees of loft works perfect for me in theory. It's a nice slot for a Driver alternative vs driver replacement. At 13.5 my driver should be longer than the mini still, but the Mini should give me enough distance to work with when the Driver isn't playing nice or there is trouble in the Driver landing zone. And the added size of the clubhead should give me more forgiveness than going 3W.
This thing is going to be point and shoot, for real. The FF33 in a mini driver is going to make this club a freaking weapon. I have one hole on my course that is very narrow in the fairway and this is going to be perfect for it.
This is why I'm interested in this offering ^^^^^
Great looking club and the write up is excellent @Jman. All these mini drivers hitting the market have me thinking about trying one even though I am not really the target market. I do have 2 holes on my course that it could definitely help though and if I could hit it off the deck on occasion that would help.
