Also in for review is the new 3-wood from the recently released Cobra Fmax Superlite Offset lineup. One of the cool things here is it is a 16.5* loft which given the target audience of the Fmax SL lineup makes a lot of sense. Priced at $199.00 the Fmax SL fairway is all about maximizing distance and forgiveness for, as they state it, moderate swing speeds. As such, the superlite and offset aspect of this will be an interesting fit for me, but, I think it will still be a lot of fun to get on the monitor and see just what kind of speed and launch we are talking about.
Cobra on the Fmax Superlite Offset Fairway:
WHAT IT IS - When it comes to maximizing speed, every gram counts. The F-MAX Superlite fairway is engineered using lighter clubhead, shaft and grip designs to deliver our lightest overall fairway club weight.
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 fairway construction consists of a 4 gram lighter clubhead, a 5 gram lighter shaft, and a 7 gram lighter grip that yield 16 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.
FORGED 455 STAINLESS STEEL FACE INSERT - A forged high-strength stainless steel face insert increases ball speed and launch to maximize distance.
SHALLOW FACE PROFILE - A shallow face profile positions the CG lower to the ground and promotes more dynamic launch for higher, towering trajectories and increased flight time..
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.
