Cobra King Tec, King Tec-X and King Tec-X single length shackles

Gamers looking for a look and feel forged with modern performance technology have a new option. Cobra is unveiling its latest irons in the ever popular Category “remote players”. with the fifth generation of King Tec, King Tec-X and King Tec-X ONE Length cuffs.

Cobra King Tec Handcuffs

Cobra bills the new one King Tec Handcuffs as “the ultimate golfer’s distance iron” and, like the rest of the family, the irons are built around a new PWRSHELL forged face insert with HOT variable face thickness geometry. This means that the club face is thinner AND stronger, which helps produce higher ball speeds.

All three new models also use a five-step forging process, which the company says helps improve feel and allows for precise shaping.

With the King Tec, the shaping has been refined from the previous generation to shorten the length of the blade, soften the topline and create what the company calls a “wrapped toe”. The lift wedge in the kit also has a flatter topline and straighter leading edge.

KING TEC irons are designed to inspire a better ball-striking experience. Featuring a new 5-step forged body and face, and refined shaping, these irons deliver true feel and better player looks with all the forgiveness you need. REFINED SHAPE Experience unmatched ball strikes through a sleeker, more refined shape featuring a thinner topline and reduced offset that inspires accuracy and playability. ENHANCED FEEL THROUGH FORGING AND FOAM TECHNIQUE Each TEC iron is crafted from 1025 carbon steel and precision forged 5 times to deliver the soft, player-preferred feel. The hollow body design is filled with a new foam that is lighter and softer to improve feel and response. INCREASED SPEED & STABILITY: PWRSHELL HOT FACE & TUNGSTEN WEIGHT Dynamic distance is unleashed using a hollow body, a thinner and stronger PWRSHELL insert with HOT Face technology and 20g of tungsten in the toe for added stability.

The hollow part of the heads is filled with expanded foam microspheres to dampen vibrations and improve sound.

The King Tec 4 to 7 irons also feature a 20g tungsten weight in the low heel area to make the clubhead more stable at impact while increasing its resistance to twisting. The 8-iron wedge has no tungsten to help reduce ball flight.

Cobra King Tec-X and King Tec-X ONE Length

King Tec-X AND King Tec-X One length are intended as a game improvement iron as they have a larger profile than the King Tec.

Compared to the previous generation, the new King Tec-X models have a rounder and sleeker topline, while having visual lowering, meaning the club looks like it has less offset than it actually does – a favorite look of many players.

Like the King Tec models, the King Tec-X models are also built around the PWRSHELL forged face insert with HOT variable thickness face geometry, but the King Tec-X features softer and lighter foam microspheres in the hollow head of the club to improve the feel.

KING TEC X Irons redefine what a game-enhancing iron should look and feel like. Exciting distance and forgiveness are achieved through a 70g tungsten internal weight and hollow body construction, giving you the keys to improve your game while looking like a serious player. GAME IMPROVING SHAPE Featuring a slightly larger profile than the KING TEC, the X model is designed to inspire confidence in a more forgiving shape that delivers added stability on off-center shots. IMPROVED FEEL: SOFTER FOAM CUFF CONSTRUCTION A hollow body design is filled with a new foam that is lighter and softer to improve feel and feedback. INCREASED SPEED & STABILITY: PWRSHELL HOT FACE & TUNGSTEN WEIGHT Dynamic distance is unleashed using a hollow body, a thinner and stronger PWRSHELL insert with HOT Face technology and 70g of tungsten in the toe for added stability.

The weight of the tungsten in the King Tec-Xs is also more than three times the size of the King Tec at 70g and is suspended across the bottom of the clubhead to improve stability and forgiveness on off-center shots.

For those who want the consistency associated with a single length set, Cobra also unveiled a refined ONE Length version of the King Tec-X.

The King Tec-X ONE Length has all the same technology as the standard version, but the 4 to 6 irons have 1.5mm wider heels, increased loft and more offset to make them easier to launch .
