Cape Town, South Africa – COBRA Golf is continuing to make golf easier. Easy to hit it far, easy to hit it straight and most importantly, easy to enjoy the game. The new Baffler® XL Irons feature an oversized face with moderate offset design that yields a forgiving, draw-biased ball flight. The slightly lower profile shape for low CG, delivers easy up off of any lie. The Combo Set features the easy to hit irons as well as the high MOI designed Baffler XL Hybrids for higher, longer ball flight which make long approach shots easy. “The Baffler XL Combo Set is going to be extremely popular among game improvement seeking players,” commented Jose Miraflor, Director of Product Marketing. “The technology and design work that went into the Baffler XL Combo Set truly delivers a maximum game improving set that will make it easier to hit the ball, easier to hit the ball far and easier to hit the ball straight.” Using inspiration from the original Baffler (first launched more than 40 years ago) the Baffler XL Combo Set features a wide railed sole with more pronounced rails and a beveled leading edge. These design elements make them easy to hit from any lie. The oversized and traditionally shaped design gives golfers confidence at address while providing extreme forgiveness, lower CG and higher launch. The progressive offset design gives golfers easy slice correction even into the longer irons. A 360 degree undercut delivers a large free floating face that generates ball speed for longer explosive shots. The undercutting technique allowed engineers to create a high MOI design for consistency. The Baffler XL product line is named for the 40th anniversary of the Baffler and features a sophisticated Legion Blue cosmetic that is found throughout the line including the Baffler XL Driver, Fairways and Hybrids. An offset design throughout the set will help correct slices, pronounced rails on fairways, hybrids and irons makes it easy to get the ball in the air and high MOI makes the Baffler XL product line extremely forgiving.
