Quick reference

OPTM	January 20, 2026	Gloss carbon crown with a colored accent by model: black (LS), blue (X), silver (Max-K), red (Max-D)	$599

Sub-models

LS: the low-spin model in every year. The DS-Adapt LS is a smaller 445cc head with three sole weights.
X (2024 onward): the mid-launch, all-around model.
Max: the most forgiving model through 2024, with draw weighting.
Max-K and Max-D (2025 onward): Max-K is the high-forgiveness model (over 10,000 MOI on DS-Adapt). Max-D has a heel weight for a draw.

DS-Adapt vs OPTMBoth use the FutureFit33 hosel, so the hosel won't separate them. Read the name on the sole, and look for OPTM's colored crown accent. OPTM sells for about $100 more used.

Source: completed eBay sales from the 90 days ending September 24, 2026, via eBay's Terapeak research tool. Ranges show the middle half of sales (25th to 75th percentile), so unusually cheap or expensive sales don't skew them. Titles are seller-reported, so a few model or year labels may be wrong.

Driver prices exclude listings for headcovers, shafts, weights and head-only sales, and sales under $100.

Samples for the older models are small, so treat those ranges as rough. LTDx and Aerojet sell for about the same, and condition and shaft matter more than the year.

Great to play, harder to flipIn our data, a 2025 DS-Adapt sells for about $240 used, while a 2025 TaylorMade Qi35 sells for about $280 and a 2025 Ping G440 for about $370. That makes used Cobra drivers some of the best-value buys, but the margins are thinner if you're reselling. See our TaylorMade and Ping driver guides to compare.
