First Look: 2013 Cobra AMP Cell Pro Irons

Published

on

Ever since we got a look at Rickie Fowler’s forged Cobra blades last year, we’ve been waiting for Cobra to release a new set of forged blades. Well, the wait is over. Check out these pictures of the new Cobra AMP Cell Pro Irons that Rickie Fowler, Ian Poulter and Jonas Blixt have been busy testing this fall.

These aren’t Fowler’s butter knives from 2012, but don’t fret. Fowler’s exact irons will be available through custom in Spring 2013, and will likely be priced at $899.

Look for the AMP Cell Pro Irons to officially launch in late March for $899.

      Nike didn’t invent the mixed cavity & blade set. Wilson made the staff progressives in the early 90’s or before Nike was in the club making business. Then there was the titleist 731 that were Phil Mickelsons before he left for callaway. So no they are not a ripoff of Nike pro combos.

    Nice. They look like Trusty Rusty wedges morphed into irons.

Why Ben Griffin is making the surprising switch to a Maxfli golf ball

Published

on

Ben Griffin might be a little too young to remember some of the iconic Maxfli golf balls that won on tour, but that isn’t stopping him from putting the newest Tour X ball from the brand in play. Today, Maxfli and Griffin announced an exclusive partnership that will see the PGA Tour player using the company’s four-piece golf ball.

While Griffin might be the first PGA Tour player to put a new Maxfli golf ball in play, he isn’t the first profesional golfer to do so. Lexi Thompson has been playing the Maxfli Tour golf ball on the LPGA Tour since the beginning of the 2024.

A post shared by GolfWRX (@golfwrx)

We caught up with Ben at the CJ Cup Byron Nelson in Texas this week to ask him about the new ball switch.

“I was able to finally get my hands on some and try it and immediately I saw faster ball speed with the driver, which is always something every golfer wants to see.

“Then I had to test a lot around the greens and test irons, test spins, test everything like that. Basically, I came to the conclusion that I thought this was probably one of the best golf balls for my game.

“And so I decided to make it official and partner with them and very excited to help kind of launch this golf ball and see where it takes us.”

Griffin’s ball of choice is the Maxfli Tour X, a four-piece golf ball that is made for highly skilled players that want consistent distance off the driver and spin around the green. An updated core design helps add the ball speed that Griffin mentioned and two ionomer mantle layers separate low spin driver shots from higher spin iron and wedge shots. Maxfli uses Center Of center-of-gravity balancing to ensure each ball has consistent flight in the air and roll on the green. Like all golf balls on tour, the Tour X features a cast urethane cover for maximum performance, and it has a tetrahedron dimple pattern to enhance aerodynamics.

It is exciting to see a golf ball at a lower price point — $39.99 at Golf Galaxy — being used by a top 100 ranked player in the world like Ben Griffin, and equipment junkies will be keenly watching his performance with the new ball.
