Cobra Golf har lanceret deres nye F-MAX SuperLite udstyr, som er lettere end det udstyr man er vant til. Det giver længere og højere slag.
For at slå længere skal man have mere fart i køllehovedet, hvilket kan opnås gennem styrke og fysisk træning eller øget smidighed. Man vil også automatisk svinge hurtigere med lettere udstyr, hvilket er tanken bag Cobra F-MAX SuperLite, som kan købes i butikkerne nu. F-MAX SuperLite er den nye version af den succesfulde F-MAX serie, som blev lanceret i 2017.
Cobra F-MAX SuperLite henvender sig til golfspillere, med en mere moderat fart i køllehovedet, hvilket må være det man kan kalde den gennemsnitlige golfspiller. Med en lavere vægt i køllehovede, skaft og grip vil man svinge hurtigere, hvilket skulle resultere i længere og højere slag. Man har fjernet 18 gram, hvilket måske ikke lyder af meget, men ud af en samlet vægt på 287 gram er det dog noget.
Se mere i videoen ovenfor, og læs mere om driveren og fairwaykøllerne i den engelske pressemeddelelse nedenfor.
Cobra har også lanceret F-MAX SuperLite jern og hybrider, som der kan læses mere om i denne artikel.
Som noget forholdsvis nyt her på 19hul.dk er vi begyndt at bringe pressemeddelelser på engelsk. Vi vil forsat have mest indhold på dansk, men vil også bringe udvalgte engelske pressemeddelelser med en kort opsummering på dansk.

NEW F-MAX SUPERLITE DRIVER & FAIRWAYS ARE COBRA’S LIGHTEST EVER; PROVIDING MAXIMUM SPEED & DISTANCE TO PLAYERS WITH MODERATE SWING SPEEDS
NEW F-MAX Superlite Driver and Fairway Woods Help Golfers Experience The ‘Speed of Lite’
COBRA Golf, a leader in golf club innovation and design, introduced today its lightest, easiest to hit collection of drivers and fairways ever. Building off the success of the original F-MAX family, first introduced in 2017, the new F-MAX men’s and women’s Superlite Drivers and Fairway are significantly lighter overall, providing more club speed, distance and easier launch than ever before.
The COBRA Golf F-MAX Superlite Drivers are re-engineered with a 6-gram lighter clubhead, while maintaining an MOI of greater than 5,000, delivering COBRA’s lightest driver head weight without sacrificing stability and forgiveness. Additionally, a 5-gram lighter shaft, and a 7-gram lighter grip design yield 18 grams in weight-savings, bringing to the total overall weight to 287 grams. These lightweight technologies and designs are combined to ensure the fastest club and ball speed performance for moderate swing speeds. The men’s F-MAX Superlite Drivers feature a Midsize LAMKIN REL 360 grip that is engineered using a lighter, softer rubber compound for a lighter swing weight and improved comfort and feel. Accentuating the weight minimization theme, COBRA’s new Superlite shafts offer the perfect blend of distance, speed and launch. A lighter profile allows for a faster and more balanced swing transition for golfers with smoother tempos. Offered in both offset and straight neck hosel designs, COBRA Golf has created its F-MAX Superlite Drivers with the following industry-leading super game improvement technologies:
- Oversized Clubhead Shape – An oversized address profile increases forgiveness by reducing twisting of the clubface on miss-hits, for more consistent, accurate drives.
- Forged Titanium E9™ Face Insert – A thin forged 6-4 Titanium face insert is designed with E9 Technology, a variable thickness face structure that enhances ball speed and distance on centered and off centered hits.
- Crown Alignment Feature – A subtle crown alignment design assists players with a square set up at address without being a visual distraction.
- Back/Heel CG Weighting – An internal weight pad strategically positions weight low, back and towards the heel to deliver higher launching trajectories and straighter ball flights.
- Hosel Options – F-MAX Superlite Driver is offered in player’s choice of an offset hosel that promotes a draw-biased ball flight, or in the straight-neck design for golfers preferring a more traditional look at address.
“We are very excited about this driver; we’ve been able to engineer an incredibly forgiving, powerful club and keep the overall clubhead weight to less than 300 grams,” said Tom Olsavsky, Vice President of R&D for COBRA Golf. “The F-MAX Superlite Driver will be the perfect solution for players who need the added speed of lightweight design without sacrificing forgiveness; those that will benefit from having a club that allows them to maximize their swing speed and launch angle.”
COBRA’s new F-MAX Superlight Fairways boast the same innovative, weight-saving considerations and game-enhancing benefits as the driver, but feature a low profile, shallow face design using high-strength forged 455 stainless steel to enhance ball speed and launch across the face from a variety of turf conditions.
