Cobra Golf has had lots of experience with 3D printing in their players irons and putters which they brought to the King and King Max 2026 models using that technique for the rear medallion. The benefit is to be able to produce an intricate lattice to ensure the club head weight is properly positioned for added forgiveness and better performance,
The center of gravity could be lowered 2mm which helps with a higher launch angle and a steeper descent for both accuracy and control.
Cobra’s Skid Sole has a pre-worn leading edge and there’s additional with the mid-sole adjusted to be flatter. These features help with turf contact plus lower the center of gravity an additional amount.
“We are huge believers in 3D-printed technology,” said Jose Miraflor, Cobra’s VP of Product Architecture and Consumer Connections. “Using 3DP to reposition the CG of the new KING and KING MAX irons perfectly illustrates our dedication to continuing innovation and makes them our most advanced max-game improvement irons to date.”
