Combining cutting-edge 3D printing methods with advanced design, the new Cobra LIMIT3D Putters are designed to maximize performance and precision. Cobra Golf, a brand known for challenging the boundaries of golf club innovation, has teamed up with HP to deliver a product that redefines what’s possible in putter design.
Revolutionizing Putters with 3D Printing
At the heart of the new LIMIT3D Putters lies Cobra’s innovative use of 3D printing technology, a partnership developed with HP’s industry-leading Metal Jet printing platform. This collaboration has allowed Cobra to design and produce putters with unparalleled precision and performance. Unlike traditional casting or forging techniques, 3D printing enables the creation of complex designs that were previously unattainable.
Each LIMIT3D putter is crafted from 316L stainless steel, using intricate lattice structures to perfect weight distribution and minimize flaws. This meticulous attention to detail results in several performance enhancements:
Better Sound and Feel
The one-piece 3D printed construction eliminates the need for drilled pockets or separate lightweight soleplates, which often compromise the feel of traditional putters.
Higher Moment of Inertia (MOI)
The design ensures stability during stroke impact, making it easier to maintain accurate aim and trajectory, even on off-center hits.
Enhanced Stability
Thanks to the advanced geometry and integrated weight optimization, players experience greater control on every putt.
According to Chad DeHart, Senior Product Line Manager at Cobra Golf, the success of Cobra’s previous 3DP irons made adopting the technology for putters a natural next step. He expressed confidence that the LIMIT3D putters would exceed player expectations, both on and off the tour.
A Closer Look at the LIMIT3D Models
The Cobra LIMIT3D Putters come in two distinct models, ENZO and PISTA, each meticulously engineered for specific styles of play. Here’s what makes these putters stand out.
The ENZO – For High MOI and Maximum Forgiveness
The ENZO model is a high-MOI mallet putter that prioritizes stability and consistency. With a complex geometric design, the ENZO maintains balance and precision even on off-center strikes. The high MOI helps reduce twisting, perfect for golfers who value forgiveness in their putting game.

The PISTA-45 – Precision Meets Tradition
For players who prefer a more traditional blade-style putter, the PISTA model delivers the perfect combination of classic design and advanced technology. Constructed using Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS), the PISTA offers precision and feel that harkens back to traditional putters while incorporating the modern enhancements of 3D printing.

Design Features that Set the LIMIT3D Apart
One of the standout innovations in the LIMIT3D Putters lies in LA GOLF’s Descending Loft Technology, integrated into both the ENZO and PISTA models. This unique approach uses four descending loft angles (4°, 3°, 2°, and 1°) to counteract any changes to loft and impact angle caused by a player’s stroke. The result? A smoother launch and improved end-over-end roll performance.
To complement the top-notch construction, the LIMIT3D putters are finished using CNC machining, delivering Tour-caliber precision and aesthetics. Both models include premium components, such as KBS CT Tour Putter 120 shafts and SuperStroke Zenergy 2.0PT grips, ensuring performance and comfort right out of the box.
The new Cobra LIMIT3D Putters are more than just a leap forward in technology; they represent a new era in golf club design.
