Why We Like It
Cobra went outside the typical design box with this all-hybrid-like iron set as an alternative to its Air-X iron offering. A stainless-steel face with 15 variable-thickness zones helps generate more ball speed. Then, to mask as many flaws as possible, rails are used on the sole. This reduces the consequences of fat shots, and the front portion of the rails is hollow, adding flex on the leading edge of the face.
Characteristics
- The face insert is larger and more flexible than last year’s T-Rail.
- Thick internal ribs are intended to produce a pleasing sound.
- This model is offered with graphite shafts exclusively.
- 7-iron: 29 degrees; PW: 44 degrees
Highlights
- Top 5 highest-flying super-game-improvement irons, high-handicaps
- Top 5 softest super-game-improvement irons, high-handicaps
Price
$143 per iron
HOT LIST PLAYERS FEEDBACK
Ratings are based on players’ assessments in three key performance areas.
Reviews
Clean strike with a sharp metallic sound through impact. Good feedback in the hands. The rails improve turf interaction. Lightweight design gives me more feel and a mid ball flight that doesn’t balloon.
Gary, 36, Handicap: 13Easy to find the sweet spot. Shots jump off the face and stay on line. The ball comes off with a mid trajectory that doesn’t balloon.
Peter, 56, Handicap: 7A well-balanced club that moves through impact smoothly. The ball gets up quick and stays there. Ball flight rises fairly quick and falls softly.
David, 56, Handicap: 13Why Impact Is Critical to Your Iron Play
Consistent shot shape requires one skill above all others: the ability to make flush contact with the ball. It’s the No. 1 fundamental in golf, and without it, this game can be an eternal mystery. Here, Sean Hogan, one of Golf Digest’s Best Teachers in Florida, helps you improve your impact from tee to green.
