Why we like it

You’ve heard the phrase “pound for pound, the best”? That would apply to Cobra’s R&D team. Although outnumbered and out-budgeted by the biggest companies, Cobra continues to innovate in meaningful ways, and this iron is the latest example. The face of the hollow-body irons, designed with the help of a supercomputer, is 1.5 millimetres at its thinnest, providing explosive ball speed. Inside the cavity is a soft polymer (used in underbody coatings in cars) to dampen vibrations.

  • Available in One Length shaft length.
  • An internal weight bar allows the bottom of the face to flex.
  • Grooves are milled into the face to ensure exact specs.   
  • 7-iron: 27 degrees; PW: 42 degrees

Top 5 best looking, game-improvement irons, low-handicaps

Reviewer profile

“The thinner topline resembles a players iron at address, but the sole is thicker. Good feel with plenty of energy at impact.”
