Can Cobra One Length Irons Help a Mid Handicap Golfer

- Hi All, this week I am going from one end of the spectrum to the other and trying out Cobra One Length Irons a week after trying the Taylormade P7MB irons in my last video. I love the theory behind these clubs but can they help a mid handicap golfer shoot better scores. thanks :-)
I switched regular clubs for the One length F9 in 2019 and I can say this was the best investment that I have made in golf clubs. My confidence went up 100%. Went from a 20 to a 14 handicap and has been as low as 11.6. Just got the dark speed one lenght sand wedge because the shaft on my F9 was cracked. Love it. It does go a little further but the same nice high shot from 110yds and in. I am getting a new shaft on my F9 as it is now my sw wedge around the green. I hope they are working out for you as well as they are working for me.
Awesome... a longtime user of one length. 💪🏻😎🤘🏻
Great video, started playing last june yet to get my handicap as only joined my local club end of summer (usually shoot 90-95 so would say high handicap) i brought a brand new set of LTDx one lengths about a month back for £300 with graphite shafts Bargain! Deffo been a game improvement for me. In terms of struggling more with the "long" irons id say what definitely helped with one lengths is ball position and playing them in a similar way to what i would a standard 7 iron as thats what the shafts are set to on them...was hard to tell on ball position with some of the camera angles but fantastic content keep it up 👍
Thank you 🙌 yep I think they can definitely help but as you said I would probably need to play about with ball position and potentially get some different shafts. Glad to hear they are going well for you. Thanks for watching 👍
Great video, I have just started uploading to my channel after years of watching from the shadows😂 keep up the great content 🍻
i have a 2022 set *9 handicap and they felt a bit odd at first 4i-6i (rest felt totally fine, i even bought the 56 & 60). Your brain will fight you once you get above a 7 iron (you look like you are standing much too far from the ball like you'd be doing it with an actual 4 iron) and also trying to hit it harder etc.. i feel you, i had a few really rough sessions with them but i did get used to them. I still go back to my standard length here & there (Mizuno JPX tour/forged split set 919). But i dropped a bomb on the fitted set of one-lengths so giving them their chance!
I switched to one length and I absolutely love them. I only have 60 to 5i in one length. My hybrids are normal length.
Spot on analysis, I have a set of 2022 OL. I absolutely love the longer 8-PW. They allow for a very smooth and controlled swing. On the other hand, the shorter 5 & 6, are extremely hard to make consistent contact. As a result most of those shots go low and/or left. Gapping gets tight towards the top of the bag too I'm working it out, and they are getting better. Very odd that the theory and premise around OL irons were that the long irons would be easier to hit and short irons would have less control, yet I have found the complete opposite to be true. For the time being I have a Variable Length 4i on the bag and have been contemplating going variable length 5 & 6 to mesh up with my OL 7-PW.
Yep it's very strange isn't it, I'm sure others must have had the same experience, glad to hear it wasn't just my swing 😂 I love the look of the clubs so it was a shame they didn't perform. Thanks for watching 👍
I have multiple sets of high end Japanese irons. Love them all even though each set is different in specs from each other.
The last set I was using a lot was my Honma TWX hollow irons. Great clubs.
Bought the Cobra LTDx one length on a whim last summer.
Took awhile to get used to them.
Went through some of the same issues you did.
Kept putting my Honma’s back in the bag and would go back and forth a bit.
However something clicked one day with the OL’s.
Now I’m shooting my best scores and most consistent golf of my life.
Total confidence in these Cobra’s now!
I pulled the ball in closer and have more of a single plane swing with upright body position ala Bryson.
I’m hitting with more compression than I ever have and hitting absolute bombs.
May get the Forged Tec versions of the OL’s just because I’d prefer less offset and a more lofted iron to gain a bit more spin around the greens.
Overall I can’t go back to standard irons now.
Just love these.
I’m a 8 handicap and have shot multiple round just under par with these.
I started with the F7s, and after several rounds had that same moment where it all clicked. Got some Forged Tec OLs earlier this year and they’re amazing. Don’t hesitate, pick up a set
I had a similar problem when I played my first round with one length, I realized I was about a half ball too far forward in my stance. Once I made the adjustment I have been striping the irons,
That's good to hear they are working out, maybe if I put the reps in I could figure them out better, thanks for watching 👍
Awesome. 💪🏻😎🤘🏻
One length irons (low lofted especially) play much more upright than standard irons. This will explain the irons going left a bit. You will also swing the 4i harder than the PW because your brain wants the ball to go 4i distance which usually makes the ball go further left.
The benefit of OL is hitting the center of the club face more often which should lead to fewer mishits and improved consistency. Takes a while to get used to playing everything the same. Keep at it for a couple more weeks and don’t switch between your standard length clubs and OL. See if that helps.
As a high handicapper i used these for a few months as i thought they would be good for me but it wasn't the case. I found that the longer irons like the 5 iron i was losing distance and when it came to the wedges, it was hard to keep the shots short and just kept over hitting them. So they didn't work out for me unfortunately. - Gavin
I wouldn’t mind a set like this with a quarter inch variation starting with a normal 7 iron length.
Had same issue, bought 4i-7i couple years ago and I play off 13HC and use Mizuno MP-15 irons for last 8 years and one size I could not get off the deck, felt too heavy on impact, never a cotton wool feeling of puring them. novelty idea and curiosity to try them but wasted money in honesty IMO - ok off tee box but different story hitting off the deck strangely
That's exactly it, they feel almost too heavy and you just can't get a clean strike off the fairway. Glad it's not just me 😂👍
When switching to single-length irons, forget the various distances your conventional irons give you. Start fresh. Copy down the corresponding distances of your new irons. Of course, the respective distances will be different from your old clubs. Accept it and forget it.
With single-length irons, you'll essentially be playing the same club for every swing. The distances will be longer or shorter depending on the club you're holding. Your position at address stays the same for every iron.
Why is there such a controversial argument about single-length irons? Among golfers whose thinking isn't constipated, there isn't an argument. Trying something different takes patience, time, intelligence, and an open mind. If these fundamental elements are missing, you'll never improve your understanding of diversity. Single-length irons make more sense than a conventional set of irons because they eliminate the need to adjust your relative position at address for each club. If you're comfortable with the pitching wedge in a set of single-length irons, you can now swing all of your irons like they are a pitching wedge.
U could choke up on the wedge.
Get a set of wishon. Much better feel bs cobra.
The Wishon's are great clubs. 💪🏻😎🤘🏻
