Interactive adjustment guide
Enter your head's stated loft, then pick a position to decode it, or pick a loft change to see which positions get you there.
| Position | Loft | Lie | Face angle | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| -1.5 | -1.5° | std | square | Maximum lower-loft setting. |
| -1 | -1° | std | square | - |
| -1 DRAW | -1° | +2° | square | Draw-bias variant of the -1 loft setting: same loft, more upright lie for a draw tendency. The 2-degree lie effect of the draw setting comes from a Cobra engineer interview describing a predecessor MyFly hosel, not a MyFly8-specific published chart; Cobra's current MyFly8 SmartPad guide states no per-position lie values at all. |
| STDFactory | std | std | square | Factory ship setting: stated loft, standard lie, square face (SmartPad). |
| STD DRAW | std | +2° | square | Draw-bias variant of the standard loft setting: stated loft, more upright lie for a draw tendency. The 2-degree lie effect of the draw setting comes from a Cobra engineer interview describing a predecessor MyFly hosel, not a MyFly8-specific published chart; Cobra's current MyFly8 SmartPad guide states no per-position lie values at all. |
| +1 | +1° | std | square | - |
| +1 DRAW | +1° | +2° | square | Draw-bias variant of the +1 loft setting: same loft, more upright lie for a draw tendency.

Confirmed via Into The Grain's King F8+ driver article (intothegrain.com/cobra-king-f8-driver/): 'The adjustable hosel has eight loft settings to fine-tune launch and spin' and 'The Smart Pad ensures that the driver sits square at address in every setting,' both stated for the F8+ specifically. Cross-checked against Golf Storage Guide's Cobra F8 adjustment guide (golfstorageguide.com/cobra-f8-driver-adjustment-guide/), which lists the F8+'s own eight loft settings separately from the F8's own settings.
