COBRA AEROJET IRONS | MyGolfSpy

Seeing the phrase “Jet” linked to any line of golf merchandise (bear in mind TaylorMade’s JetSpeed?) takes me again to McCartney’s Band on the Run album and that anthem-like single I beloved to crank on my stereo: “Jet, with the wind in your hair of a thousand laces, climb on the again and we’ll go for a trip within the sky.”

COBRA is angling for a a lot completely different “trip within the sky” with AEROJET.

Evolving from final 12 months’s LTDx irons, COBRA’s newest game-improvement providing pushes the velocity and distance narrative for that class.

Let’s face it: the vast majority of golfers who play for enjoyable are transfixed on extra distance with the driving force.

Counterpoint: Extra distance from seven golf equipment, not only one, gives the identical form of enjoyable however with plain game-improvement advantages.

That’s what COBRA desires to speak to their goal market about AEROJET. Of their phrases: “New ranges of velocity and distance than they thought attainable of their iron sport.”

Floating PWR-Bridge.

PWR-Bridge has changed the PWR-COR in LTDx from a 12 months in the past.

Why is COBRA calling it a “bridge”? The inner 70-gram metal weight (fastened in LTDx) now could be separated from the 431 chrome steel physique, face and sole of the hollow-bodied iron head. Being utterly untethered means the load is successfully “floating,” serving to to create further room across the PWR-Bridge. That gives the pinnacle construction extra alternative for clubface and physique flexion.

COBRA’s touting a double-dip profit: a decrease and “extra centered” middle of gravity (CG), creating increased launch and extra velocity/distance.

PWRShell Will get a Facelift

Making face deflection a precedence on the AEROJET agenda meant a bit of cosmetic surgery to the face profile. Wrapping round onto the toe of the irons, the solid 17-4 PWRShell insert now has a variable thickness patterned H.O.T. Face with a 22-percent bigger “skinny” space (the thinnest level being simply 1.9 millimeters and the thickest being 2.3) than the earlier LTDx mannequin.

“H.O.T.” on this case stands for Extremely Optimized Topology. Designed by COBRA utilizing synthetic intelligence, the face design has
a number of zones with diverse thicknesses and shaping, delivering what COBRA is asking a bigger “Candy Zone.” The tip sport is extra environment friendly velocity and spin throughout a bigger space of the clubface.

How A lot Extra?

In line with COBRA, combining PWR-Bridge, PWRShell and H.O.T. Face applied sciences produced 10 p.c extra face deflection in AEROJET than LTDx. Robotic testing revealed a 1.8-mph acquire in velocity and three.5 extra yards of distance.

Upgrading for Sound/Really feel?

The AEROJET iron head is injected with foam to improve acoustics and feel. In COBRA-speak, it’s a “Polymer Really feel System.” Engulfing the hole space across the PWR-Bridge weight, the filler acts prefer it does in all of those sorts of fashions—a vibration dampener serving to to offer a softer, extra forged-like really feel and a high quality sound at affect.

Trios of Setups

Variable-length AEROJET irons are available in three setups:

Seven-piece metal: 4-PW (RH; stiff flex)
Seven-piece graphite: 5-GW (RH/LH; stiff and common flex)
Seven-piece graphite combo: 5H, 6-PW, GW (RH; stiff, common, lite flex)

For graphite, COBRA provides the KBS PGI (85 gram-stiff flex, 75-regular flex, 65 lite flex) with Lamkin Crossline grips. KBS Tour Lite 100 (common and stiff) will get the nod because the inventory metal shaft.

COBRA’s ONE Length irons, constructed to 7-iron size (37.25 inches) with the very same weights, additionally come 3 ways:

Seven-piece metal: 5-GW (RH/LH – stiff, common)
Seven-piece graphite: 5-GW (RH – stiff, common, lite)
Seven-piece graphite combo: 5H, 6-PW, GW (RH – common, lite)

They’ve the identical shafts because the variable size however with one grip distinction: Lamkin Crossline grips for ONE Size are distinguishable by red-and-blue paint fill.

The AEROJET “Fore the Ladies” line boasts the identical velocity, distance and expertise story with one beauty distinction: the colorway will likely be silver and ice-blue. KBS PGI girls’s flex graphite shaft is the inventory providing. They’re bought as a combo set: 5H, 6H, 7-PW and SW in right-hand solely.
