Well played. A few years back I got my Radspeed with hzrds shaft... tax in, delivered (after signing up for a Amazon card) for $178. I didn't need a driver that bad, but I crushed my friends radspeed and I couldn't argue the price. COBRA drivers get it done
Wohooo! Finaly. 👍 LTDx LS is a monster. First driver that I reached 170+ mph ball speed with. Do the test again with a right fitted shaft for both heads.
Great to see this Cobra review. I love the LTDX LS but have an Aerojet and have now bought a Darkspeed LS head. Just back from a total knee replacement so will begin testing next week. Funny the way the previous ones played out. Got the LTDX in the lowest setting, playing at 7.5 and still goes long and high. Same shaft in the Aero and have to play standard at 9. Cant wait to mix Darkspeed in next week. Getting older now so every yard is vital. Keep up the good work at 2nd swing.
LTDX is definitely the best value for the money. You can tweak both drivers if you want to with shafts and settings, but the straight up testing here shows them basically at par. With the exception of ball speed being higher. Ball speed is a number on your chart, but if the actual distance that the ball ends up is 309 yards it doesn’t matter if your ball speed is 10 mph faster with one club than another if the end result is the drives the same distance on the fairway then that is that. I would never pay the money for the new club when the older one is keeping up. But it’s a good review to tell everyone that technology has not gone leaps and bounds in the last couple of years.
I have the ltdx ls and a darkspeed X. I think the ltdx is the best sounding driver I have ever used and it generates great ball speed. The darkspeed x doesn't sound as good but sends the ball as well as the ltdx ls with significantly more forgiveness. Love them both. Great review thanks for doing it.
I am still playing my Cobra Rad speed driver! I will look for a new driver when the shaft I am currently using is too stiff. I can’t afford to chase a few more yards every year.
Finally. Here we go❤ cobra woods all the way. Awesome review guys. Now we know which feats to weigh on for both lineups (ltx & ds) and i kinda like the face feat difference bet the infinity and hot face. It gave me better info on what im benefiting from. Now i just need to know if im better w X variant or LS. Hope you guys could also do a 6 (if incl max variant) or 4 way comparison of the standard variants and ls variants head to head. I cause im really kinda liking the adjustability feats and i have a gut feel it significantly influence mine. Im being my own fitter cause it's expensive to get fitted in my country let alone trust a good fitter here unlike in other countries wherein theres a lot of good fitters and club builders available.
I never understood what infinity face was when I bought the club new, bc I was just a guy with money who drank on the golf course with a side of golf. Now that I've cleaned things up, and realize more about that face... I miss it. I game a brand new driver and a Speedzone. Most of the time, I use the Speedzone. I love that driver, and I love how the face bend over the top of the club for those awful shots.
I bought the LTDx LS and played it a few days after and could have sworn I broke it. There is a small gap between the face and the top of the club like I see at 22 seconds in your video. I'm guessing that is supposed to be there, any reason why?
I understand there needs to be "tweaking" but you can say the same thing for the LTDX LS. With that dispersion on the LTDX vs the Darkspeed, who in the world is spending an additional $300 because a monitor says your ballspeed is 4MPH faster? On the course you have no idea what your ballspeed is. On this test he's essentially hitting these drivers the same distance, one has better dispersion and didn't dip left on you, and you can buy new for under $200 right now.
My ltd max has a beautiful matte finish. Don’t love the colored accents but they are subtle. Overall great looking driver. I also hate glossy looks on all clubs and look to avoid where possible.
Bought the LTDX LS this past season and I love it. Happy I saved the money!

This is the first video I’ve seen with this fitter. I think this is the best on camera duo you’ve had since TC left.
Tyler is great!!

Thank you for watching and your feedback! Awesome to hear of your experience with these drivers. Keep us posted on how things test out for you

I still rock my Radspeed... no issues, still bombs.

Thanks for watching and for the comment. Definitely understand your position, and Radspeed is a terrific driver!

I switched from the Cobra LTDx LS to the Darkspeed LS this year. The Darkspeed is a bit more forgiving.
I found the ltdx ls way more forgiving direction wise.

Wow just what I was looking for!
Nice idea but please show us impact location data.

Just a different clubface design and material on the LTDxLS vs the Darkspeed.
"That was a large miss....WOW." Right down the middle

I've had rad speed since launch. Was going to buy the darkspeed but just purchased the ltdx ls for $300 brand new... might of saved myself $500 ...
Driver heads in matte just look better than the gloss look imo
Standard Ltdx LS is matte . Black with orange accents. Not this blue red deal.
My ltd max has a beautiful matte finish. Don’t love the colored accents but they are subtle. Overall great looking driver. I also hate glossy looks on all clubs and look to avoid where possible.
So save some money, the LTDxLS looks identical and more forgiving.
LTD LX series is an all-time great
