It’s that time of year again, where golf manufacturers will start to debut what they have in store for the following year and one set up clubs that has almost immediately caught our eye is the new Radspeed range from Cobra.

It’s fair to say Cobra golf are no strangers to innovation having always pushed boundaries in club design, manufacturing and even forging strategic partnerships with companies such as Arccos for their users to get the most of out their product.

The latest SS21 range has arrived with the moniker “Radspeed”. The name is born out the latest technology used by Cobra in the new range called Radial Weighting.

The design concept originated from a popular formula in engineering called Radius of Gyration, which is the distance from the club’s center of gravity to each weight or technology location.

COBRA’s engineers discovered that by increasing the Radius of Gyration and the distance between the front and back weights, they could create the perfect blend of fast-ball speed, low spin, and forgiveness in one driver.

Utilising Radial Weighting, the weight is strategically positioned in each of the three new driver models, creating three distinct performances.

Each driver shares a common goal of distance by ironing out the flaws in game types, swing style and bio-mechanics. The Radspeed for example is tailored for a lower handicapper who want distance through faster ball speed and trajectory control.

The XB is slightly different as focusses more on getting you distance but consistency across the face and stability resulting in more forgiveness.

The third and final variant is the Radspeed XD, for those who continually struggle with slicing the ball by overcompensating on creating a draw. Let’s go into a bit more details on each driver.
