Cobra King Supersport-35 Putter £349
Cobra hasn’t launched a putter in a long while, so if it was going to return to the category, it was always going to do it with a bang. Step up the new King Supersport-35 putter, the first in what looks to be a line of products featuring 3D-printing technology. The oversized blade has been developed over the past two years in collaboration with HP and Parmatech, more as a showpiece of what is possible in the future.
It features a fully 3D-printed metal body with an intricate lattice structure to optimise weight distribution and deliver the highestpossible MOI in a blade shape.
With its quicker processing time and greater design freedom, using 3D printing meant that Cobra was able to design, prototype and test multiple iterations and bring the product to market much faster than traditional manufacturing methods. Because of this, Cobra has plans to launch two additional products in 2021 that feature 3D-printed technology. Additionally, the putter features a face insert designed in partnership with SIK Golf, the brand of flat-stick chosen by Cobra staffer Bryson
Dechambeau. It utilises the company’s patented Descending Loft Technology (DLT), where levels of the face increase in loft from bottom to top (1°, 2°, 3° and 4°) to create the most consistent launch and accurate roll.
The DLT technology has been re-engineered into an aluminium face insert. This strategically saves weight from the front of the putter to be repositioned in the heel and toe, in order to soften the feel.
The King Supersport-35 putter is available in very limited quantities in 34” and RH only. It has an RRP of £349 and a lightweight Lamkin Sinkfit Smart grip with in-built
Cobra Connect.
