Cobra-Puma’s new driver, the AMP Cell, is the company’s most complex to date.

It allows golfers to adjust the loft from 8.5 degrees to 11.5 degrees (7.5 to 10.5 in the Pro model), while keeping the face angle relatively square thanks to the company’s 1.7 mm SmartPad.

The AMP Cell drivers also use Cobra’s E9 face technology and Cell technology that Tom Preece, vice president of R&D for Cobra-Puma, says expands the driver’s sweet spot and creates additional ball speed on off-center hits.

To help our viewers truly understand the technology in Cobra’s new products, we shot a video with Preece and actor/Cobra-Puma spokesman John O’Hurley, who translates for Preece. Do yourself and favor and check it out below.

In our forums, not everything is about club selection and shaft options. A heated debate has bubbled up surrounding the best sock options players can wear on the course.

@CletePurcel asked:

“Just bought 2 new pairs of FootJoy shoes and trying to find out the most favorable socks to wear. I try to walk 9 holes two to three times a week and good socks are a must. Thanks in advance.

Members in the forum chimed in with their favorite footwear accessories. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

Maroon_19: “I’ve only worn Kentwool socks for golf for the last 8 years – regardless of weather. I walk 90% of my rounds and play anywhere from 50-75 rounds a year (going to go up as I just retired). They only get worn for golf. As long as you care for them, they’ll care for you. Have had zero blisters with them. I just started using my second set of 8 pair for our Bandon trip earlier this month. The old ones will now go into the daily wear rotation. Still good after all these years.”
smoova: “I’ve had good luck with Swiftwick. Walk every round 12 months a year in Colorado.”
Hawkeye77: “FJ Pro ProDry is what I’m usually wearing just because I have more of them, but I’ve got some Smartwool socks I love for the wool aspect – they sell them as running socks. The thicker socks are better for certain shoes. I’ve gone merino/other wool in almost all my socks – athletic, “dress” and so forth – no more “Orlon”, lol, some golf socks are the exception.”
th6252: “Another vote for Kentwool, honorable mentions to Balega and Falke(thanks to someone on this forum for turning me onto the RU3).”
