It's for: All skill levels
Key feature: Three distinct models based on ball speed
Cobra tweaked the shape and face size of its Speed LD driverin creating S9-1. The new stick is shorter from face to rear than Speed LD, narrower from heel to toe and has a more rounded topline and leading edge. This profile (5-percent less overall surface area) delivers a bigger hitting area while freeing up more weight than in Speed LD. As a result, the S9-1 is more stable (higher MOI) and has a hotter face (faster ball speed). The dual rhombus pattern behind the face also helps to shore up ball speed on off-center hits. The S9-1 is also lighter (by 6 grams) with a longer (45.5-inch) shaft to help you swing it faster. Lastly, the center of gravity location is more draw-biased as you move from the F/Speed to M/Speed to M/Offset version.
