2020 Cobra Golf T-Rail iron hybrid set
New for 2020, the Cobra Golf T-Rail (Transitional Rail) super game improvement iron—the company’s first all hollow iron hybrid set.
Cobra T Rail irons fuse a hollow, hybrid shape with an iron face and topline, with the iron-hybrid design aiming to provide golfers with the perfect blend of distance, forgiveness, and accuracy.
According to the company, the hollow body construction creates a lower, deeper CG than traditional cavity-back iron designs. The lower, deeper CG aims to aid golfers in getting the ball in the air and on line easier than conventional cavity-back irons.
Speaking on the new T-Rail irons, Tom Olsavsky, VP of R&D, Cobra Golf, stated
“T-Rail irons make it easy for beginners and golfers who have lost some distance and control to gain the confidence needed to play better and have more fun. Players who need max forgiveness and are looking for more distance will be amazed at how far and straight they hit these, even being able to get them airborne from tough lies.”
The irons feature the brand’s Baffler Rails technology which seeks to provide players with more speed and stability out of every lie through its turf interaction.
The irons also contain a high-strength, forged steel face designed with E9 technology, which includes a thin pocket from heel to toe which is intended to offer maximum ball speed and forgiveness on off-center hits.
The new additions from Cobra arrive in a hollow, iron-hybrid construction in the 5-PW with a 4-hybrid to make a 7-piece set. The irons, which come in a black/blue colorway for men and black/lilac colorway for women, come equipped with Cobra Ultralite 50g graphite shafts (Stiff, Regular and Lite) and Cobra Lamkin REL midsize grips.
Both the Men’s and Women’s T-Rail sets will be available beginning November 1, 2019, and cost $899.

Coolest thing for sale in the GolfWRX Classifieds (5/13/24): Full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs
At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals that all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.
It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.
Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, there is a listing for a full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs.
From the seller: (@CaymanS): “During the year of recovery from leg surgery that never quite healed, I was bored. One thing led to another, and I ended up gradually building/acquiring the individual pieces to complete a set of “Tiger Slam” clubs. They are what Tiger played to win 4 consecutive majors, which nobody has ever done. This is not an exact replica of course, but something close that fit me to play a few times per year and experience what Tiger did. But my bad leg, 4 shoulder tears, and age prevents me from the ball-striking needed to enjoy these to their fullest. They may not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially since the driver and fairway shafts are regular flex and most players good enough to play these will need to change them, but it’s not a perfect world. I am not a historian on this stuff, but my research indicates these are the same models Tiger used, with slightly different specs to fit me.
Full set $1,600, or…
…a donation for a Pro Kids fundraiser, or…
Driver: $70
Fairway: $250
Irons: $1,100
Wedges: $100
Putter: $350″

I have been playing with a senior set of hybrids from Adams and being in my eighties now allows me to continue and enjoy golf. Anyone approaching their senior years consider this type of club.

Surprised they didn’t make a 3 and 2 iron for better players to use this as a driving iron. Seems like a missed opportunity

This is the future of iron sets for many of us. Full sets of hybrids with a traditional sand wedge. It’s actually a return to how the game began. Most early clubs were woods with just a rut iron or the like here or there.
My only concern is that for those who refuse to use head covers these are going to look pretty bad in short order. The various Cleveland models of this type tended to really suffer in this way, so much so that some took to removing the paint altogether.

I might have to give these a try! I’ve always wanted to play a round with a full hybrid set. Maybe its just what my awful swing needs.

My step dad got a hand-me-down set of full hybrids from my uncle a couple years ago and he loves them. He’s not an avid golfer, but he hits them better and has more fun.

Some folks like to just enjoy the fresh air, a nice walk or cart ride, some quality time with their playing partners, a couple beverages, getting away from their family etc. Whatever the case may be, enjoy it! A bag full of hybrid irons will help you do that. Making even the most horrible of swings somewhat reasonable. It’s like taking opioids for pain, just mask it for the short term and then die before you ever figure out the real problem 🙂 golf is fun for everyone!

There comes a time when a golfer becomes so bad that they should quit instead of carrying a bag full of whistling ginties.

Well I’m 70 years old carry hybrids 2 through 8, have a handicap of 8.5 and the increase in the number of hybrids I carry has resulted in the lowering of my handicap. I hit the hybrids longer higher, more accurately and they land more softly. So an off the top analysis would question your conclusions.
