Beauty is only skin deep—which is totally cool when discussing golf clubs.
Cobra’s taken their leading irons and have elevated their pedigree, delivering them in a new eye-popping copper finish that’s sure to garner attention at the course. The idea behind the new look came from Rickie Fowler, a player who’s never been shy to deliver a fashion statement. And that’s exactly what the irons are—a statement!
But don’t be fooled, these beauties aren’t just for show-and-tell or to hang in the office, despite their looking like works of renaissance art. The copper versions of King Tour, King Tour Tec and King RF Forged MB have all the same technology and on-course performance as their chrome cousins. All three iron models are geared toward better players, but each remains slightly different in their offerings.
King RF Forged MB Irons
If you want to go for the gusto and pick up a set with serious flair and superior performance engineered for the game’s best players, the King RF Forged MB irons are a world-class choice. The overall look of these irons was developed with the help of Rickie Fowler, who played a central role throughout the entire process—that’s where the RF comes from. But those initials aren’t only found in the name. In acknowledgement of his work on the project, each iron has RF etched on the toe, sort of like how an artist signs his work. However, if you’re not a low single-digit handicap or better, these butter knives will probably do you more harm than good. On the other hand, these are so gorgeous they may actually warrant a spot above the mantel even if you’re a 25-handicapper.
King Forged Tec
Seeking a few extra yards this season? Of course, we all are. If you’re wanting more distance and more eyeballs looking your way as you step onto the first tee, check out Cobra’s King Forged Tec copper irons. A hollow-body construction with a muscleback shape, these irons generate the feel of a solid blade with the added benefit of enhanced forgiveness.
King Tour
For those of us who love the sound and intangibles of a blade, but still benefit from a cavity back design and its attendant forgiving qualities, you’ll enjoy what King Tour copper irons deliver. Unlike forged irons, these are made using Metal Injection Molding, a unique metalworks process that gives them unparalleled consistency and feel.
