Cobra S3 Max irons
Last updated:
RRP: £399
LOFTS: 6-iron: 28, PW: 43
TECH TALK Cobra kept the sole design (a reduced contact area to prevent digging) from its S2 iron and switched to a low-profile head to move the centre of gravity lower and further back to improve forgiveness and increase the launch angle. Available with two hybrids or as an all-iron set (4-iron through gap wedge).
PLAYER COMMENTS
M “These provide consistent flight and distance, even on mis-hits.”
H “It’s nice to have a forgiving club that doesn’t distract you by its size at address.” … “If there’s such a thing as a players super game-improvement iron, this is it. A great choice for the avid bad golfer.”
HOT Those who eschew hybrids have to love the economy-size sticker on the no-hybrid set. That’s an awful lot of golf club at an attractive price.
NOT It’s true that people want more distance in their irons, but a strong-lofted pitching wedge (43 degrees) seems like too much.
