COBRA Golf has announced their new KING SPEEDZONE club series, marking an impressive upgrade to their KING F9 family from last season. Featuring metal woods, hybrids and irons, the KING SPEEDZONE series promises improved forgiveness, ball speed, and forgiveness throughout the bag.

Background and Technology

The biggest story of the new COBRA KING SPEEDZONE and SPEEDZONE XTREME, as their names suggest, is speed. Borrowing from design methods and characteristics of racecars, these drivers have been engineered to help you swing the club faster while translating to increased output on the golf ball.

In other words, these drivers are built to help you reach distances off the tee you’ve only dreamed about.

“Our new KING SPEEDZONE drivers emphatically answered the question we are always asked – can you really improve the driver any further and stay within the rules of golf? That answer is yes,” said Tom Olsavsky, VP of R&D for COBRA Golf. “By approaching design the same way you would if you were trying to create the world’s fastest cars, we left nothing on the table in terms of speed considerations. With our six zones of performance, SPEEDZONE is the fastest driver that we have ever produced.”

Key highlights of the new design include what COBRA has designated as six different “zones”, each featuring their own level of innovation.

From COBRA:

1. POWER ZONE – CNC Infinity Milled Face - the face is the engine of the driver and is crucial for generating speed.

2. STRENGTH ZONE - COBRA’s SPEEDZONE drivers feature a new Titanium T-Bar Speed Chassis. COBRA engineers removed unnecessary titanium to create more discretionary weight while maintaining a strong structure designed to withstand high speed collisions.

3. LIGHT ZONE – The new SPEEDZONE chassis allows for more carbon fiber than ever before. A 360 Carbon Wrap Crown design makes up 50% of the driver body, providing ample stiffness and support to the chassis while saving 25 grams of discretionary weight. That weight has been repositioned low and back and around the perimeter where it is needed most.

4. LOW CG ZONE – In the KING SPEEDZONE driver, COBRA continues to deliver a low CG for optimal performance, similar to the 2019 SPEEDBACK driver. In the SPEEDZONE driver, 69 grams of mass (vs. 40 in SPEEDBACK) has been strategically positioned low in the driver for optimal launch conditions.

5. AERO ZONE – The new SPEEDZONE shaping harnesses airflow for maximum drag reduction and increased clubhead speed.

6. STABILITY ZONE – SPEEDZONE’s High MOI Design positions weight away from the center of the head to maximize stability on off-center hits for longer, straighter drives.

On top of all that goodness, the KING SPEEDZONE drivers — along with the new irons, hybrids and fairway woods of the same family — come equipped with COBRA Connect, the Arccos-powered shot tracking system. This makes the new line of clubs an incredible value for players of any caliber compared to competitors.

The COBRA KING SPEEDZONE drivers are available in both men and women’s shaft flexes and multiple lofts throughout the line. Each will be fully adjustable with COBRA’s patented MyFly hosel technology. Shaft options for the SPEEDZONE and SPEEDZONE XTREME models include a high-launch/mid-spin UST Helium (4 F2– A-Flex or 5 F3–Regular Flex); a mid-launch/mid spin Tensei CK AV Blue 65 (Stiff and Regular); a mid-launch/low spin Project X HZRDUS Smoke Yellow 60 (X-Stiff and Stiff); or the low launch/low spin Aldila Rogue Silver 60 (X-Stiff, Stiff).

Both drivers will be available at retail and online on January 17, 2020. For more information on the full KING SPEEDZONE family visit, www.cobragolf.com.
