NEW! COBRA Golf AIR-X game improvement drivers and fairway woods

COBRA Golf has introduced the new AIR-X franchise, the latest evolution of its popular lightweight club category. 

Continuing its focus on weight-savings and forgiveness, COBRA’s new AIR-X men’s and women’s Drivers and Fairways each boast an additional 8 grams of total weight savings. 

At just 277 grams, the AIR-X driver delivers a new level of lightweight performance to improve feel and maximize clubhead speed and distance for players with moderate swing speeds.

COBRA’s AIR-X line is anchored by new and improved metalwoods that have been re-engineered with new weight saving technologies.  The AIR-X drivers now feature a lighter and thinner ply carbon crown that is 30% thinner than the previous generation (F-MAX). 

The new thin-ply carbon fiber saves a total of 5 additional grams compared to last year’s carbon fiber construction, allowing COBRA engineers to reduce the clubhead weight by 2 grams (190g total) while maintaining a high MOI of 5,000 for maximum stability and forgiveness.

To add to the weight saving technologies, the driver now utilizes a standard size 37g Lamkin grip, which is 4 grams lighter than last year’s model, and a sub-50-gram ULTRALITE shaft. 

Together, the lighter grip (-4g), lighter head (-2g), and lighter shaft (-2g) combine to bring the total overall weight to an unbelievably light 277 grams - 8 grams lighter than its predecessor. In addition, the AIR-X Drivers feature heel-biased weighting and an offset hosel design to help correct a slice and make it easier to hit straighter drives down the fairway.

Updated for 2022 is an offset that is increased by 20% delivering even more slice correction for those who need it.

For players who prefer a traditional, square setup at address, the AIR-X Drivers are also available in a straight neck model. 

COBRA’s new AIR-X Fairways employ similar weight-saving innovations as the driver, including the updated lighter weight carbon crown, and a 6-gram lighter 41g Lamkin grip. 

Additionally, a low profile, shallow face design lowers the CG for higher launch while back/heel weighting creates draw bias to help correct a slice.
