OUR TAKE
Cobra packed more technology into the F8+ than we can cover, starting with a machined circular pattern in the center of the face that not only saves weight but, according to Cobra, boosts ball speeds by as much as 1.6 mph over hand-polished models. With an improved carbon-fiber crown and a streamlined profile, the F8+ generates less drag—and a lower CG—than typical drivers. Tie that together with an adjustable hosel and moveable weights in the sole to tweak ball flight and a Tour-preferred head shape, and the F8+ is a high-tech tool for hard-swinging players.
FITTER COMMENTS
