Performance index
Six researched ratings, lower (blue) through to elite (gold).
Where it wins
- Feel86
- Looks85
- Sound82
Watch
Rated highest for feel and looks; its softest dimension is workability.
You want the most forgiving, straightest-flying Cobra of its year, with an easy high launch.
You want to work the ball, chase the lowest spin, or prefer a compact head — the standard suits better.
Pros
- Cobra's most forgiving driver of 2020 — a ~5,500 MOI head that forgives even bad toe strikes
- Easy, high launch and straight flight for a wide range of golfers
- A rock-solid feel across the whole face
Cons
- Straightness-first — not built for shaping shots, and less adjustable than the standard
- A loud, slightly hollow sound and a big footprint won't suit all
- Six seasons old — newer high-MOI heads carry more ball speed
By dimension
Forgiveness
StrongThe safest miss Cobra had made — a ~5,500 MOI head that keeps even a bad toe hit straight and long.
Distance
SolidFast with an easy, high launch — off-centre hits hold their distance well, if it gives up a touch of the standard's low-spin pace.
Workability
ModestStraightness over shot-making — the big, back-weighted head is built to fly dead straight, not to bend the ball.
Feel
ExcellentA dense, planted strike — it hits hard and stays composed whether you catch it flush or off the toe.
Sound
ExcellentA ringing, faintly empty tone at impact — a fair bit of volume, and a shade louder than the standard head.
Looks at address
ExcellentA large, reassuring head that looks bigger than the standard — a textured carbon top and a pair of sole ridges lend a quick, aerodynamic feel.
