COBRA<br />
Return of the King<br />
Two new multi-adjustable drivers bear Cobra’s legendary moniker<br />
obra made headlines a month<br />
C<br />
ago when it resurrected the<br />
legendary King name in its new<br />
Ltd driver. That club, with its unique<br />
SpacePort technology, was Cobra’s top-ofthe-range<br />
driver for 2016, with a price tag<br />
to match. Now the King moniker has been<br />
applied to two more models featuring<br />
tons of adjustability – but with sub-£300<br />
rrps. Both let you change your launch<br />
conditions, in very different ways.<br />
Cobra King F6+ £299<br />
Cobra says the F6+ is its longest, most<br />
adjustable driver to date. In a first for golf,<br />
the F6+ has a carbon sole track. This,<br />
along with a carbon crown, allowed<br />
Cobra’s engineers to save 18g of mass to<br />
use in a sliding weight which will change<br />
the launch conditions.<br />
It can be moved to five positions, from<br />
just behind the face (for lower spin and<br />
launch) to the back of the head (to<br />
increase MOI and forgiveness).<br />
We were among the first people in<br />
Europe to test the F6+, and our first<br />
impression was that it’s a solid club with<br />
simple tech that works (watch the video<br />

<strong>TG</strong> test pro Chris Ryan hit the F6+ on a<br />
launch monitor and saw a 2.8° increase in<br />
launch angle with the weight at the back.<br />
This extra launch increased his carry<br />
distance by 10 yards, which demonstrates<br />

An 18g sole<br />
weight is located in<br />
a carbon track and<br />
lets you move the<br />
centre of gravity<br />
from front to back.<br />
