Cobra Speed LD
$299, graphite

We tested: LD/F 9.5° and 10.5°, LD/M 10.5° and LD/M Offset 10.5° in Graphite Design Tour AD YS graphite shaft. Shaft length: 45"
Company line: "Increasing the crown slope and deepening the dimples moves the CG lower and deeper. The result is increased MOI and high launch for greater distance. The milled dual rhombus face insert maximizes COR."
Our Test Panel Says:
PROS: Not as loud and "pingy" as previous Cobras; sneaky long; accurate and forgiving; head is easily identified at the top of the backswing; easy to hit draws; good distance forgiveness all over the face; draw-bias keeps mis-hits in the fairway without encouraging hooks; second-highest trajectory in test.
CONS: Impact can feel hard and not descriptive; too much going on in the crown design; lack of sound, too muted at contact.
"Quite forgiving no radical movement in any direction, even if I slash at the ball." Alan Dante (12)
