Design and Technology
The Cobra F6 Driver was designed to replace the Cobra Fly Z Driver, while the two clubs almost look identical at address, this is where the similarities end. One big difference between the Cobra Fly Z Driver and the Cobra F6 Driver lies in its sole weight design. Unlike the Cobra Fly Z Driver, where the weight was not movable, the Cobra F6 Driver has a 10g polycarbon weight in the sole that can be swapped out with a plastic cover. This movable weight allows players to customize their center of gravity location and performance. When placing the weight in the front position the club promotes lower trajectory, less spin, and more roll out. When placing the weight in the rear position the creates higher trajectory, longer carry, and an increase in forgiveness on off center hits.
The Cobra F6 Driver also has an adjustable hosel that comes with the MyFly with Smartpad technology. This incredible technology gives players 8 easily adjustable loft settings that give players the flexibility to manage their trajectory and fine tune their launch conditions.
