Cobra to unveil new irons

Carlsbad, California - Cobra Golf will unveil a new line of irons at next week's PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, Florida. The new King Cobra II irons are designed with a Hump shaft and a reshaped clubhead.

The $800 steel shaft irons ($1,000 for graphite) are targetted for mid- to high-handicap golfers who seek clubs that are "easier to hit."

As a new facelift, Cobra's new irons will feature a satin finish offset by a deep gray shaft.

Unlike the old version with the oversized clubhead, Cobra narrowed the topline and redesigned the toe of the club. Cobra's new Hump shaft is lighter compared to Taylor Made's Burner Bubble and Callaway's Big Bertha irons.
