Cobra DB1 Stand Bag Review

Take any Cobra stand bag for the last five years and compare it to the DB1 and it wouldn’t take you long to recognise that’s like putting a seaside donkey up against Red Rum.

The DB1 is an excellent bag with a colour scheme that should sell well in Sweden and the Ukraine! But, as ever, in case ‘Mr Boring Golfer’ says it’s just too bright, Cobra are also working on a range of lower-key tones. Feature-wise the DB1 could quite simply be described as the ‘DBs’ (and if you need to ask what this means, please don’t!).

It features a valuables pocket with key fob to hold car keys, plus a special water – resistant zip opener, insulated bottle holders, snazzy towel clip, heavy-duty back pads for added comfort, latest Izzo dual, rubberised zip pulls, Velcro-sealed umbrella loop… need we say more?

The main clothing pocket took the bulkiest jacket and trouser combination we could find, plus you could squeeze a jumper in there too. Ample ball pocket space, plus two lined pockets for valuables. This bag was a bit bigger than some, so we expected storage to be good.

Cobra’s resurgence as a serious golf brand – thanks to the success of their titanium drivers – seems to have rubbed off on their bag range. This is a belter of a bag but cheap. Also, the material is a little bit on the heavy-duty, crispy side for me.

For the all-weather, carry-everything golfer you’ll struggle to find a better, or brighter, golf bag.
