Recently got fit into the Darkspeed X with an aftermarket shaft. I fully expect to be fit into an LS since I swing around 120 mph (or faster if I really get after it) but the dispersion was more consistent with the X. Plus more carry distance, it just didn’t roll as far as the LS. It beat the LS and the other top brands when looking at smash factor also.

I have the DS LS and absolutely love it. I’m at sea level and my swing speed is under 110 mph, I can drive greens at 300 yards. I carry 275 - 290 and the club is definitely more forgiving than expected. I loved it so much I bought the 5W LS as well and that is my 250 club straight as an arrow.

Darkspeed definitely got the cooler look though, but you may still get the very cool look of 50th Anniversary Aerojet LS for a 100 bucks cheaper!

I don’t think the new LS is better than Aerojet. You can’t get 2 mph faster with aerodynamics when both heads had the same size and same high skirt. The dark speed has a more rounded crown. That won’t get 2 mph. You just swung it a tad faster. The Aerojet face was faster in your test. But I’m pretty sure they are the same and you just had some better strikes with the Aerojet LS. Doesn’t seem like much of an upgrade unless you like the matte black better.

@christophercoleman61584 ай бұрын
I watched a comparison video last night of the Dark Speed LS and the Aerojet LS. The biggest difference was the dynamic loft. The Dark Speed LS was almost 3 degrees lower, giving you more roll out capability than the Aerojet. Other than that, they were almost identical. The most noticeable was the dispersion with the Dark Speed , which was tighter by 5 yards. This was done by a pro. Same shaft, same ball.

I think LTDx is Cobra's best golf club. It has a high balance of distance, forgiveness and good feeling. Aerojet had improved ball speed and maximum distance, but feeling and stability have deteriorated. Is ball speed and distance still the top priority for DarkSpeed? I don't think I will buy this club unless DarkSpeed has a total balance that surpasses LTDX.
@NewNineGolf6 ай бұрын
The LTDx is a great driver for sure. I'll have to do more testing with the Darkspeed but I was impressed with the Darkspeed X right out of the bat. Seems to be a good balance.

Take look at the A series from LA golf. My buddy needed a higher launch shaft and that worked really well for him. It'll still work with the LS head. You can also try to move the weight back in the head. You can also try a higher lofted head.
