COBRA LAUNCH LONGEST-EVER DRIVER

King Cobra have upped their ante in the never-ending race to bring the longest, straightest and most forgiving drivers to market.

King Cobra have upped their ante in the never-ending race to bring the longest, straightest-hitting and most forgiving drivers to the golfing market place.
The new King Cobra Speed LD and Speed Pro Drivers they have launched are the longest, straightest, and most forgiving metal woods ever offered by them, they say.
“LD stands for Limit Dimensions, which means we’ve pushed this club head to the very edge of USGA size regulations,” Jeff Harmet, the President of Cobra Golf announced on Tuesday.
“By maximizing the length and width, we have achieved a ‘Moment of Inertia’ (MOI) value of 5,000 which is as high as any all-titanium driver in the market today.
“What separates the Speed LD from other high MOI drivers, though, is the fact”,” he added, “that it has the largest face area in golf and it has an exclusive ‘Speed Tuning’ technology which is designed to generate faster ball speeds for all player types.”
The King Cobra Speed LD drivers feature the maximum USGA allowable club head length and width.
With a 5,000 inertia value, Speed LD drivers have among the highest MOI of any all-titanium driver.
In addition, it features the largest face in golf with a milled dual rhombus face insert for maximum accuracy and distance across the Hotter 9 Points.
Speed LD Drivers also include the exclusive Speed Tuning technology which optimizes ball speeds for all player types.
The Speed LD Drivers will begin shipping on March 1 with a suggested retail price of $375.
It will come in the following options:

King Cobra Speed LD Fairway Metals:
The Speed LD Fairway Metals feature an extended profile from front to back, and an increased crown slope.
