Cobra announce a brand new range of 3D Printed putters for 2024 that have been enhanced to deliver better feel and a purer roll
Cobra have been manufacturing 3D Printed putters since 2020, and year after year they have competed with the best putters on the market – will 2024 be a repeat of the same?
It wouldn’t be at all surprising to see Cobra’s new range of 3D Printed putters featuring highly among both the best blade putters and best mallet putters in 2024. Could one of these putters receive the ultimate nod of approval and make its way into Rickie Fowler’s bag?
The brand-new upgraded 3D Printed putter series flaunts innovative designs and new technologies. Cobra have made drastic improvements from their original King 3D Printed putters. Their new range showcases a lightweight, 3D printed cartridge, crafted with HP Multi Jet Fusion Technology. Not only does this allow for optimal weight distribution, but it also promotes an enhanced sound and feel.
There are eight 3D Printed putters in this collection to choose from. No matter your putting style or preferences Cobra have you covered. As well as traditional putters in this range, there are armlock versions of the blade and mallet, and a counterbalance mallet too.
Whether you decide on the armlock mallet or the traditional blade every putter head features the same distinctive technology – LA GOLF’s patented Descending Loft Technology (also featured in Cobra’s Vintage putter series). This technology provides golfers with four different lofts in the same milled 6061 aerospace grade aluminum face insert. Ensuring an optimal launch on every stroke and producing exceptional end-over-end roll was the driving force behind incorporating the Descending Loft Technology. The lofts descend in one-degree increments from top to bottom, starting at four degrees at the top and one degree at the bottom of the insert.
The new range of 3D Printed putters features a multi-material construction. Joining the aluminum face insert and 3D printed lattice cartridge is a carbon fiber crown and metal injected molded (MIM) body made from 304 stainless steel. Cobra have designed this series of putters to be incredibly forgiving and stable thanks to a phenomenally high MOI.
On the sole of the putter heads there is adjustable weighting. Golfers have the choice of five different weights which can be swapped out with ease. Having the ability to decide between 5g, 10g, 15g, 20g, and 25g weights in your putter offers outstanding flexibility for every individual to build their putter to their preferences.
“Cobra was the first company in golf to utilize 3D Printing in golf club and putter design,” said Jose Miraflor, VP Marketing & Product Architecture at Cobra. “Our new 3D Printed family is the most advanced yet and sets the standard for putter technology and performance.”
Let’s take a look at the eight models you have to choose from when Cobra release their brand-new range of 3D Printed putters on February 23…
Cobra 3D Printed Agera
RRP: £299.00 / $349.00
The Agera is Cobra’s largest mallet in their 3D Printed putter series. It’s an incredibly stable putter given its large footprint and it’s also very forgiving. With a single bend shaft and being completely face balanced this putter is likely going to suit the vast majority of golfers providing you have a neutral putting stroke.
This putter sits beautifully behind the ball and the white alignment line that runs through the center of the head is hugely confidence-instilling.
Cobra 3D Printed Agera CB
RRP: £299.00 / $349.00
The Agera CB is a counterbalanced putter that plays a 38″ length and has a longer 17″ SuperStroke grip. The head weight of the Agera CB is 20g heavier than the Agera and both Agera RS’ (385g v 365g).
The counterbalanced Agera comes as standard with 25g weights in the sole of the club, giving it more weight which makes the putter extremely stable. This putter is the same footprint as the standard Agera – the largest mallet in the series.
Cobra 3D Printed Agera AL
RRP: £299.00 / $349.00
The final Agera in this line-up is the one that impressed me most. The Agera AL is not only the heaviest putter in this range (395g) it’s also the longest at 41″ long. Before putting with the Agera AL, I’d never used an armlock putter and I was pleasantly surprised.
The armlock Agera sits six degrees more upright than the non-armlock 3D Printed putters which warrants a more upright stance. This is very much a love-or-hate putter but I’m definitely in the love-it camp!
Cobra 3D Printed Agera RS
RRP: £299.00 / $349.00
At first look it’s difficult to see any difference between the Agera and the Agera RS, but once you put the two down next to one another you will notice that the Agera RS has a slightly smaller footprint (15% smaller).
Like the Agera, the Agera RS is face balanced with a single bend shaft which makes this model well-suited for golfers with a straight back and straight through putting stroke.
Despite being a smaller mallet, the Agera RS is still very forgiving – and like the Agera – has a white alignment line running down the middle of the putter head which is great for lining up putts and ensuring your face is square at address.
Cobra 3D Printed Agera RS-30
RRP: £299.00 / $349.00
The second Agera RS model in the 3D Printed putters series differs from the previous model because it’s a toe hang putter featuring a slant neck. Compared to the Agera and Agera RS this putter is designed for golfers with an arced putting stroke.
Like the Agera RS, the Agera RS 30 is 15% smaller than the Agera. The slant neck means this putter has slightly more offset than the face balanced Agera models and the other Agera RS – definitely something to bear in mind!
Being the same head as the Agera RS this head features the white alignment line to help you hole more putts.
Cobra 3D Printed Supernova
RRP: £299.00 / $349.00
A slightly different mallet from the Agera, the Supernova has the middle section cut out to make a fang style profile. Compared to other fang style putters, the Supernova is still fairly square which makes it easy to square up at address.
Featuring a single bend shaft and being face balanced, this mallet is great for golfers with a straight back and straight through putting stroke. I’m a huge fan of fang style putters and I was massively impressed with how this puter performed.
Cobra 3D Printed Grandsport-35
RRP: £299.00 / $349.00
This is Cobra’s traditional plumber neck blade which has 35° of toe hang. The Grandsport 35 has a small alignment line on the putter head to help line up your putts and check the club is square at address.
Blade putters always look good behind the ball, but they aren’t always the best option for every golfer. With full shaft offset and 35° of toe hang, the Grandsport 35 won’t suit every golfer – especially those with a neutral path.
Cobra 3D Printed Grandsport AL
RRP: £299.00 / $349.00
Another armlock putter in Cobra’s 3D Printed putters line-up, but this time it’s in the form of a blade. The Grandsport AL is 41″ long and six degrees more upright than the Grandsport 35. Also, the putter is 25g heavier than the Grandsport 35.
The market for armlock blade putters isn’t as competitive as armlock mallet putters, so Cobra will be hoping for this putter to perform well against the competition.
