In for review is the update to Cobra's Fmax lineup of drivers, the Fmax Superlite, for this review it is more specifically the offset version. I actually reviewed the previous iteration so it'll be nice to pull some comparison thoughts on this one. Will be an interesting review for me no doubt with the offset AND superlite aspect, but, it will be fun. The driver is priced at $299.00 and DOES come in a straight or offset version, most interestingly, the whole package weighs only 287g.
Should get out to get some data early this week now that the weather is cleared off. I received the 10.5 version paired with the 48g superlite shaft.
Cobra on the Fmax Superlite Offset Driver:
WHAT IT IS - When it comes to maximizing speed, every gram counts. The F-MAX Superlite driver is engineered using lighter clubhead, shaft and grip designs to deliver our lightest overall clubweight of 287g.
WHO IT'S FOR - The lightweight club design helps golfers with moderate swing speeds and smoother tempos generate effortless club speed with improved feel and stability for longer, more consistent drives.
WHY WE MADE IT - As golfers age, their swing speed naturally decreases resulting in shorter drives and longer, tougher approach shots. With F-MAX Superlite, we've engineered an extremely lightweight and forgiving driver that is designed to improve feel, speed, and consistency for golfers with moderate swing speeds.
UNIMAGINED SPEED AND FORGIVENESS. - COBRA's lightest weight driver construction consists of a 6 gram lighter clubhead, a 5 gram lighter shaft, and a 7 gram lighter grip that yield 18 grams in weight-saving performance, delivering unrivaled distance, forgiveness and launch for moderate swing speeds.
LIGHTER (MIDSIZE) GRIPS - Features a midsize grip that is popular among golfers seeking more comfort, control and consistency. A lighter and softer rubber compound is utilized to improve feel and grip, while saving 7g of weight.
LIGHTER SHAFTS - The F-MAX Superlite shaft offers the perfect blend of launch and distance for golfers with moderate swing speeds. A re-engineered profile is 5g lighter and allows for an easier, smoother transition to the ball resulting in more consistent contact.
FIND YOUR PERFECT FLIGHT -We tested the King F8 driver in its most forgiving setting (heel weight setting) against the F-MAX Superlite driver and found the offset F-MAX Superlite driver produced 4 more yards of draw.
CROWN ALIGNMENT FEATURE - A subtle crown alignment design assists with a square set up at address and provides a visually pleasing detail without it being distracting to the eye.
OFFSET HOSEL DESIGN - The draw biased design of the offset hosel helps deliver a square face at impact to optimize launch and distance, while correcting rightward shot tendencies.
