In the last year, Cobra’s One-Length irons have represented 60 percent of its iron sales, according to the company. That’s significantly higher than the 20 percent of sales that company representatives were predicting.

As such, Cobra unveiled a number of new One-Length offerings, along with other new, traditional-length golf clubs. See all of Cobra’s new products it showed on Day 2 of the 2018 PGA Show, and check out all of our photos from the show here.

King Black and King Black One-Length wedges

Cobra’s new King Black and King Black One-Length wedges (the length of a 7-iron), have Dimonized Black Metal (DBM) finishes — the same finishes that Rickie Fowler has on his King Pro irons — and are made from 8620 carbon steel.

They are available in three different grinds (Classic, WideLow and Versatile), and come in lofts of 50, 52, 54, 56, 58 and 60 degrees.

The new black wedges will sell for $149 apiece starting on March 2. They come with True Temper Dynamic Gold S200 shafts with a Powder Coat finish, and they have Lamkin ACE Crossline grips equipped with Cobra Connect.

Forged Tec and Forged Tec One-Length irons

Cobra was being tight-lipped about the technology of the Forged Tec and Forged Tec One-Length irons. From what we can tell, they have a finish that looks similar to the DMB wedge finish, and they have True Temper’s AMT shafts in them. It also appears they have carbon fiber badges in the cavities, as well.

King Utility One-Length

Cobra would also not reveal any information about its King Utility One-Length offering, but we know it has an adjustable hosel, and will in all likelihood come in a 7-iron length.

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

Gianni Magliocco

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.

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.

PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300. The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length. I am playing a Ventus Red 70. I play 70 grams in my fairways. I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee. When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time. So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck. The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
