Cobra introduces Air-X Irons & Hybrids – Golf News

COBRA Golf’s new AIR-X range of irons and hybrids, which are at retail from today, are designed to make it easier for slower swing speed golfers to create more distance.

AIR-X Irons
Featuring improved H.O.T. Face technology, a new Speed Channel, and an updated profile, the new irons provide faster ball speeds, higher launch, and more carry distance than the previous AIR-X design.

• O.T. Face Technology – A new thickness pattern that is 15% thinner in the center and around the perimeter is designed with A.I. technology to create optimal ball speed and improved spin efficiency across the entire clubface.
• Progressive Low-Profile Design – Lower blade height on long and mid irons lowers the CG location and encourages easier launch and higher trajectory shots. Blade heights progress from lowest in the 4i to highest in the PW for more boring short iron shots and increased accuracy on approaches.
• Cavity Back Construction with New Speed Channel – A deep cavity back design and new speed channel create increased flexion low on the face (where most recreational players make contact), a higher launch, and increased overall distance.
• Offset Design – 10% more offset increases dynamic launch for higher ball flight and a steeper angle of descent into greens while also making it easier to square the club at impact for straighter shots.
• Premium Multi-Material Construction – An Aluminum and TPU Medallion work to damp vibrations which yields a softer feel and improved sound at impact.

SPECS AND RRPs
Men’s and Women’s AIR-X Irons (£599 steel; £699 graphite) – 7-piece, stock 5-PW, GW iron set features an ULTRALITE steel shaft (£599); the 7-piece stock graphite combo set (4H, 5H, 6-PW in regular flex and 5H, 6H, 7-PW, GW in lite flex) features an ULTRALITE graphite shaft; both available in RH/LH versions in Chrome/Red colorway. Men’s graphite iron sets are available in custom only for £699.

AIR-X Hybrids

The men’s and women’s AIR-X Hybrids feature similar technologies as AIR-X drivers and fairways with a lightweight construction and low-profile design.

• Forged H.O.T. Face Insert – A thinner face design with the H.O.T. Face Insert allows for more speed and consistency across the face.
• Back/Heel Weighting – A back and heel weighting help to improve draw bias and deliver straighter shots, easier launch, and higher trajectory shots.
• Offset Hosel Design – Allows the club to square at impact more easily for straighter shots and improved launch conditions.

The Men’s AIR-X Hybrids (£169) are available in 3H (19°), 4H (21°), 5H (24°), 6H (27°) and 7H (30°) (RH only). The Women’s AIR-X Hybrids are available in 4H (21°), 5H (24°), 6H (27°) and 7H (30°) (RH only) in ladies’ flex.
