Cobra introduces its first line of 3D-printed multi-material putters

Published

on

Cobra Golf today made its official entry into the putter market with its new line of 3D-printed multi-material putters, all of which feature SIK face technology.

The new releases arrive a year after Cobra first partnered with HP to become the first OEM to launch a commercial, 3D-printed metal putter with the limited-edition King SuperSport-35.

The new putters feature a 3D-printed nylon lattice cartridge created using HP’s advanced Multi-Jet fusion printing technology.

The 3D-printed lattice structure is designed to optimize weight distribution within the putter chassis to deliver a high MOI design for enhanced stability and roll performance in three distinct models: The GrandSport-35 (OS Blade), SuperNova (OS Fang), and the Agera (OS Mallet)

“We’re extremely excited launch our new family of 3D printed putters, continuing our partnership with HP, utilizing their Metal Jet Technology to innovate and transform the way golf equipment is manufactured through the use of 3D printing, an extremely effective process in the design and development of our new putter line. We are extremely excited for golfers to try our new 3D printed putters, while each is unique, they all deliver advanced stability, forgiveness and roll performance that will make putting easier for golfers of all levels.” – Jose, VP Marketing & Product Architecture, Cobra Golf.

In each putter, Cobra partnered with SIK Golf to employ patented Descending Loft Technology (DLT), which features four descending lofts on the face to produce a consistent launch angle and roll for different putting styles.  

The King GrandSport-35 ($349)

The King GrandSport features an oversize blade shape and an MOI comparable to other OS mallets on the market. A plumber neck design to create a 35-degree toe hang aimed towards players with a slight arc to their putting stroke.

A multi-material construction features a 268-gram steel chassis, 21-gram forged aluminum crown, and a 3D-printed nylon lattice cartridge.

With nylon being roughly half the weight of aluminum, the construction enabled weight to be removed from the center of the clubhead and repositioned to the heel and toe areas for increased MOI and forgiveness.

In addition, 30 grams of combined tungsten weight is in the heel and toe in design to enhance perimeter weighting for greater stability on off-center hits.

For enhanced roll performance, an aluminum face insert features SIK’s DLT.

The putter also includes a Tri-Plane sole with center relief in design for added versatility and a single sightline for improved alignment.

The GrandSport-35 is available in right and left hand in 34 and 35-inch lengths through stock (other lengths available through custom).

The GrandSport-35 shape is also available in a 41-inch armlock model with an oversize Lamkin Armlock grip. The Armlock model features an aluminum SIK face insert with more loft than the standard GrandSport-35 (7, 6, 5, 4 degrees) to account for forward shaft lean during the stoke.

The King 3D printed Grandsport-35 putters are equipped with a lightweight polyurethane Lamkin Sinkfit Connect Grip.

The King SuperNova ($349)

The King SuperNova putter features an oversize fang design with MOI over 5,700 designed for extreme stability on off-center hits. The stability is achieved using a 3D-printed multi-material construction with two 3D-printed nylon lattice cartridges, a 291-gram steel chassis, 18-gram forged aluminum crown, and 42 grams of combined tungsten on the perimeter extremities.

The two 3D-printed lattice cartridges use a lightweight nylon material to optimize weight distribution within the chassis making the MOI of the SuperNova greater than other fang-style mallets on the market.

The putter is also equipped with an aluminum SIK face insert and a lightweight polyurethane Lamkin Sink fit Connect Grip.

The King Agera ($349)

The King Agera putter features an oversize mallet shape and an MOI over 7,600, making it one of the most stable putters on the market today.

The design features a 3D-printed nylon cartridge, 261-gram steel chassis, 27-gram forged aluminum crown, and extreme tungsten weighting.

The intricate 3D-printed nylon lattice cartridge removes unnecessary mass from the center in design to allow weight to be redistributed to the perimeter in the form of 53 grams of combined tungsten to increase MOI.

Like the other putters in the King 3D Printed Series, the Agera also features an aluminum face insert with SIK’s DLT with four descending lofts (4,3,2 and 1 degree) to provide optimal launch and roll consistency.

The King Agera putter is equipped with a lightweight polyurethane Lamkin Sink Fit Connect Grip and is available in right and left hand in 34, 35, and 37.5 inches stock length (other lengths available through custom).

A 41-inch Armlock model is also available and comes with a special oversize Lamkin Sinkfit Connect grip.

    Would have expected these to come in a bit cheaper than most putters out there but the opposite seems to be the case. At the end of the day, most golfers are missing putts because of misreads or poor strokes. This being the case, it wouldn’t matter how much you pay for your putter so you might as well go with a cheaper option.

    I’d like to try one of these when they’re going for $35 on eBay in 6 months

    Luke, I am your Father! Are there jet propulsion blasters behind this thing?

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

Published

on

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.”
