In for review to THP is the new KING F6 irons from Cobra. Without a doubt one of their most aggressively innovative designs when it comes to irons, they are bringing a level of depth to the progressive set mentality that really has not been seen before on the market. The KING F6 set is actually made up for FOUR different design constructions which they are calling their "TECFLO" technology. The set will retail at $799.00 and is due for release on January 1, 2016. Cobra will also be offering the KING F6 in a Combo set featuring a full 2-3hy and 3-4hy flowing into the irons for $899.00.
THP received the KING F6 in a 4-GW orientation paired with stiff-flex Matrix Q4 Red-Tie graphite shafts.

The KING of Progressive Iron sets. Optimum performance is achieved through advanced construction techniques. The result is an iron designed to create more feel, distance, precision and forgiveness.
- TECFLO CONSTRUCTION - Multiple construction technologies flow together to create the ultimate progressive irons. Each club in the set is designed to perform differently, optimized for performance to help golfers hit more greens and hit it closer to the pin.
- SPEED CHANNEL SOLE - An engineered channel positioned on the sole, close to the leading edge of the iron and around the perimeter of the upper back cavity, creates more flex at impact to deliver greater distance through faster ball speeds.
- PREMIUM CHROME PLATING - A new nickel chrome plating combined with a gunmetal PVD coating provides enhanced durability and a confidence inspiring aesthetic look at address.
- T.O.P. TECHNOLOGY - An engineered aluminum cap replaces steel on dual cavity hollow irons which frees up 5g of discretionary weight which has been placed low and further back in the head creating a lower CG position for improved launch conditions and ball flight.
- PROGRESSIVE SPIN TECH - F6 Irons come equipped with V-Grooves on 4-6 irons to reduce spin, U-Grooves on the 7-PW to optimize spin, and Wedge spaced grooves on the GW-SW to produce extra spin for shots around the green.
- DEEP PERIMETER UNDERCUTTING - An extremely deep undercut creates the largest unsupported face ever in a COBRA set of irons, meaning you get extreme distance on center hits and consistent forgiving distance on off-center hits.
- CNC MILLED GROOVES - CNC Milled Grooves increase spin and optimize trajectory throughout the set. This provides improved control and workability giving you added confidence when you're attacking the Pin.
