Cobra S9
$699, steel; $799, graphite
cobragolf.com

We tested: 4-GW in Graphite Design YS graphite shaft. Shaft length/loft (6-iron): 37.5"/28.5°

Company line: "A three-piece polymer topline allows 13 grams to be redistributed lower in the heel and toe, for a lower CG, higher MOI, higher launch and more accuracy. The wide sole has a chamfer relief in the center section to limit turf contact."

Voted Best for Accuracy

Our Test Panel Says:
PROS: Tops for accuracy in the test; wonderful balance of help on mis-hits while still hitting it where you want it, not where it's programmed; feel is a strong suit, impact is pure, crisp and smooth; offset head is not so obtrusive; nice, balanced feel on chips; S9 has a very clean look for a max game-improvement club; consistent, repeatable distances on solid strikes; oval aid on the face helps to line up.

CONS: Generous, but not as forgiving as some pre-programmed competitors; mis-hits are less kind to distance than direction.

"Perfect clubs for high handicappers." — Bud Adler
