Well I went to my local Dick's Sporting Goods and spent an hour with the pro testing drivers and walked out with my brand new King Cobra Speed LD F.

I had gone in eyeing the Nike SUMO, then tried out a Callaway, and finally landed my best shots with the Cobra by far. Even my misses were going about as far as I could get with the Nike.

The pro said this is a brand new club from Cobra, and after looking it up I see it only hit retail on March 1st, 2007, so I'm curious if others here have tried it or have it. I can't wait to hit the course this weekend with this baby, and let her rip.

I had originally tried out the M shaft instead of F, however F is rated for up to 150, which is nice because I'm currently in the 140 mark, so it'll give me some breathing room for improvement.

I'm pretty new here so if there is other information anyone would like to hear about, let me know. I hope to get a video of my swing up sometime soon too, I'm eager to learn from others and improve my game as much as possible this season.

Next weekend: fitting for irons (I opted not to tonight after hitting 50 balls for the driver, and the pro said it was a smart idea). Currently eyeing the Cobra FP's to go with the driver, but really want to test out the Callaway X-20's and the Adam's IDEA a2.
