Cobra Golf Introduces King Oversized Hybrid

Cobra Golf, a leader in golf club innovation and design, unveiled today the ideal complement to its celebrated KING Oversized Irons, the new KING Oversized Hybrid. The oversized profile coupled with improved performance technologies deliver an easy to hit long iron replacement built for explosive distance and maximum forgiveness.

The KING OS Hybrid utilizes a wider, oversized clubhead shape to improve confidence at address and provide high launch and maximum MOI for a straighter, extremely forgiving ball-flight. In addition, the larger PWRSHELL face increases the Sweet Zoneā„¢ providing more speed and distance on off-center hits.

“Last fall we introduced our popular KING Oversized irons and now we have a super game improvement hybrid to perfectly complement that set,” said Tom Olsavsky, VP of R&D for COBRA Golf. “The oversized head will provide golfers with even more speed and distance on off-center contact without sacrificing forgiveness or control.”

In addition, the KING OS Hybrid employs several of COBRA’s cutting-edge innovations, including a PWRSHELLTM Face to deliver more flex at impact providing extreme speed and higher launching ball flights across all points of contact on the clubface. Further enhancing the perfect blend of forgiveness and power, the club blends Internal Tungsten Weighting to strategically position the CG low and deep with a TeXtremeTM Carbon Fiber Crown that saves 8g of weight compared to traditional steel hybrid crowns for higher launching, lower spinning shots from a variety of lies.

“As is the case in our award-winning KING OS irons, the key to distance is lower CG and less spin, which is a big challenge when you create a larger clubhead,” said Olsavsky. “Our multi-material head construction and strategically-engineered tungsten weighting in our KING OS Hybrids allow us to achieve the lower CG while still providing a head profile that inspires confidence at address.”

The KING OS Hybrid features COBRA’s propriety MyFly8TM with SmartPadTM adjustability technologies helping golfers to manage desired trajectory and fine tune launch conditions to maximize distance, while keeping the clubface square at address regardless of loft setting.

The KING OS Hybrid in RH or LH, is available beginning Friday, June 2, 2017 in store and at cobragolf.com. The KING OS Hybrid is available in 3-4H, 4-5H and 5-6H models providing loft options ranging from 19-degrees to 28-degrees, depending upon the setting. Each KING OS Hybrid features a black Lamkin Crossline grip and comes stock with a UST Recoil 460 ES graphite shaft (in Xstiff, Stiff, Regular and Lite flexes) for $249 MAP. An 8-piece combo set composition (will be available on July 8, 2017): Steel shaft irons; graphite Hybrids – 3-4H, 4-5H, 6-PW, GW ($1099); All Graphite: 3-4H, 4-5H, 6-PW, GW ($1,199).
