    Why We Like It

    • The L-face insert (in which part of the face wraps around the sole) is used on the 4- through 7-irons to boost ball speed. The face has a new leading-edge channel that extends around the face from the sole into the toe area to help with impacts there.
    • For the first time in a Cobra iron, the interior leading-edge channel has been added to the 8-iron through sand wedge.
    • Cobra engineers used simulated golf-ball impacts to adjust the face pattern and interior leading edge and toe area thicknesses to deliver faster ball speeds.
    • Steel weighting is concentrated low and back to lower the center of gravity and to maximize the face’s ability to flex.
    • The medallion insert and a foam filler improve the feel by damping vibrations.
    • By using a softer 431 stainless steel for the hosel, custom orders can be bent by plus or minus 4 degrees of loft and plus or minus 1 degree of lie angle.
    • Top 5 in Performance, middle-handicaps.
    • SPECS: 7-iron: 27 degrees; PW: 42 degrees
