Cobra’s New Air-X Driver & Fairways

Cobra Golf redoes the super lightweight Air-X driver and fairways and again offers straight neck and offset versions of the driver in both men’s and women’s models.

Lighter clubs can swing faster, and this can be a big deal for ladies and senior men, those with moderate swing speeds. More swing speed produces more yardage and makes the game more enjoyable. Cobra is committed to the idea of a lightweight line of clubs, and the Air-X drivers and fairways fit that description well; they are very light, with the driver tipping the scale at just 290 grams, including a 41g grip and 50g shaft.

Air-X drivers have a slight draw bias enhanced by the 13g heel weight in the sole, and the same size weight increases forgiveness in the trailing edge or skirt. Both men’s and women’s drivers are available with either a straight hosel or moderate offset catering to those needing help reducing the amount of side spin that produces a slice.

The current Air-X models can be looked on as evolutionary steps from those introduced two years ago but the interesting fact is the prices are the same, a nice benefit for any golfer’s wallet.
