Cobra Golf’s new KING BLACK EDITION TOUR irons, which go on sale from October 18, are aimed at skilled golfers who place a premium on high levels of feel and shot shaping ability.
The King Tour, which was initially introduced in a chrome finish, now feature a durable black metal finish which diffuses sunlight, while also offering extreme resistance to wear.
Like their chrome counterparts, the KING Black Edition Tour irons are constructed from 1025 carbon steel using Cobra’s five-step forging process. While other forged irons have traditionally used a four-step process, COBRA utilizes a fifth forging strike to deliver unmatched soft feel and precise shaping.
Benefits of the 5-step forging process include more precise shaping, tighter weight tolerances, improved consistency of loft and lies, improved face thickness consistency, improved aesthetics and reduced glare, as well as significantly enhanced feel at impact.
The Tour edition irons blend soft feel and playability with enhanced distance and forgiveness. A key to the enhanced forgiveness and overall performance are CNC undercuts in the back cavity of each iron, which allow weight to be repositioned from high centre to lower centre and heel and toe areas of the clubhead, creating improved launch conditions and more forgiveness on off-centre hits.
These cavities progress from deeper in the long irons for enhanced stability to shallower in the short irons for enhanced control. To improve feel, each CNC undercut is filled with a soft TPU material and topped with an aluminum co-molded medallion, which dampens vibration for a more pleasing sound and feel at impact.
The Tour model also features 2° stronger lofts than Cobra’s CB & MB irons for more explosive distance off the face.
They are available in 3-GW (RH/LH), with the stock set offered in 4-PW in RH only. LH sets are available for custom orders only.
Limited edition all-black Lamkin Crossline grip and limited edition KBS $-Taper steel shafts with black PVD finish in stiff flex come as standard.
RRP: £1,129/7-piece set.
