COBRA Golf recently introduced its new family of AEROJET drivers, fairways and hybrids.
The AEROJET driver family builds on the impressive design and performance attributes of the previous LTDx line up and debuts a bold new aerodynamic shape in all three models – the AEROJET LS, AEROJET, and AEROJET MAX to deliver faster clubhead speed and ball speed.
Each driver and fairway features ‘PWR-BRIDGE Weighting Technology’, the company’s first ever suspended weight design. The new technology utilises an internal bridge structure that is elevated above the sole to achieve a low, forward centre of gravity (CG).
The Advanced Aerodynamic Shaping of the AEROJET drivers is the product of years of research and testing with some of the fastest swings on the planet. When compared to a traditional driver, the AEROJET LS (which features the most aggressive aero shape of the three models), features a streamlined frontal area, raised aft and skirt, and a more curved crown with a peak that is moved as far from the face as possible. These design attributes contribute to a significant reduction in drag through the swing for increased clubhead speed and superior aerodynamic performance.
When tested against the LTDx LS, the AEROJET LS driver produced up to 1.5mph more clubhead speed during robot testing, making these new designs the fastest and most aerodynamic COBRA drivers to date.
The family of drivers uses progressive aerodynamic shaping and unique weighting configurations to produce the fastest clubhead speed possible, while achieving specific mass property targets for different golfers. The AEROJET LS (Low Spin) driver features the most aggressive aerodynamic shape designed for players with faster swing speeds with forward adjustable heel and toe weights (12g & 3g) that tune a neutral to fade-biased ball flight.
The AEROJET driver blends low spin performance with added stability and slightly higher launch than the LS model, using a fixed back weight (12g), while the AEROJET MAX delivers maximum forgiveness and trajectory height through an adjustable back and heel weight (12g & 3g) that can also be used to deliver a draw-bias when the weights are flipped.
New internal technologies include PWR-BRIDGE Weighting – a 13g structure that is suspended above the sole like a bridge, to position the CG forward for maximum speed and low for reduced spin, while enabling a more flexible sole structure for improved energy transfer.
The elevated PWR-BRIDGE design was critical to make room for the ‘PWRSHELL Face Insert’, which debuts for the first time in a COBRA driver, delivering a larger ‘Sweet Zone’ for faster ball speed across the face.
In conjunction with the PWRSHELL, the insert features a new ‘H.O.T Face’ variable thickness pattern. H.O.T. FACE (which stands for Highly Optimised Topology) was designed using artificial intelligence and features multiple zones with optimised thicknesses and shaping to deliver more efficient speed and spin across the entire clubface.
“We continue to balance the aggressive streamlining with optimum mass and resilience properties to give players maximum club head speed and ball launch characteristics for increased distance.”
A thin ply carbon fibre structure, which is 30 percent thinner than normal carbon fibre, is utilised in a raw finish in both the crown and sole resulting in freed up discretionary weight to be positioned lower in the clubhead, effectively lowering the CG location (to near zero) for improved launch and spin characteristics.
The AEROJET drivers are available in three models aimed at optimising performance for the full spectrum of players:
The AEROJET LS offers an aggressive aerodynamic shape and a refined address profile designed for skilled players that demand low launch and low spin for maximum workability and control. For added tuning, two weight ports in the sole (with 12g and 3g weights) are positioned forward in the heel and toe to help dial in a neutral to fade-biased trajectory for the better players.
The standard AEROJET is designed to appeal to the widest spectrum of players and features aerodynamic shaping for faster club speed with one weight port in the rear of the sole, providing a neutral shot shape and an impressive combination of forgiveness and speed for maximum distance.
AEROJET MAX blends aero shaping with maximum stability and optional draw bias, allowing players to tune trajectory using adjustable weight ports in the rear and heel of the sole. By placing the 12g weight in the rear and the 3g weight in the heel, the player experiences super stable high trajectory with a small draw bias. When the heavier 12g weight is placed in the heel position, performance becomes exceptionally draw biased with good stability for forgiveness.
“The aerodynamic package in the new AEROJET family of drivers is our most advanced to date,” Vice President of Innovation for COBRA Golf Mike Yagley said. “We continue to balance the aggressive streamlining with optimum mass and resilience properties to give players maximum club head speed and ball launch characteristics for increased distance.”
Complementing the innovative line of AEROJE drivers are a full line up of fairway metals.
Utilising the same PWR-BRIDGE weighting, and PWRSHELL with H.O.T. FACE, and carbon fibre crown technologies as the drivers, COBRA engineers were able to shift the CG forward for more speed and low spin while also creating a more flexible face and sole area to maximise speed and distance.
Also available in three models, the AEROJE fairway metals are designed to fit the full spectrum of players:
AEROJET LS is COBRA’s low spin fairway model designed for players with faster swing speeds and uses forward weighting to produce lower, workable trajectories.
PWR-BRIDGE weighting and PWRSHELL H.O.T. FACE Technology work in tandem to maximise energy transfer through a low, forward CG and a more flexible face and sole area. A lightweight carbon crown with a striking raw finish saves weight that can be shifted low and forward to create a more playable clubhead. An adjustable weighting system features two forward weight ports with 12g and 3g weights that can be positioned in the heel or toe to fine tune fade-bias.
The standard AEROJE model is aimed at the widest variety of players looking for easy launch, long distance, and ample forgiveness.
A 12g fixed weight is positioned in the rear of the sole for added forgiveness and high launch, while the PWR-BRIDGE and PWRSHELL H.O.T. FACE Technology provide faster ball speed through a low, forward CG and a more flexible face and sole structure. A lightweight carbon crown further contributes to the low CG by removing weight from the upper portion of the clubhead.
COBRA’s most forgiving fairway that combines the fast and forgiving performance of the standard AEROJE model with additional launch and draw bias, the AEROJET MAX features an adjustable weight system features 12g and 3g weights that can be positioned in the back or the heel of the sole to fine tune between forgiveness and draw.
PWR-BRIDGE weighting and PWRSHELL H.O.T. FACE Technology again deliver the fastest ball speed possible using low and forward weighting and an optimised variable thickness face design, while a carbon crown helps lower the CG location for higher launch.
Rounding out the new family, AEROJET hybrids feature a new shape with lower heel, more rounded crown, and slightly raised aft, as well as the same PWR-BRIDGE weighting and PWRSHELL H.O.T. FACE Technology as the AEROJETM drivers and fairways.
The AEROJET ONE Length hybrid is designed in a shorter set up (37.25”) that complements ONE Length irons in a combo set but is also a favoured option by many non-ONE Length players for its high launching and forgiving performance.
