Cobra King Tech Utility 3 Iron

Each week we like to reflect on some of the custom fittings that our fitting experts have undergone in the studios and discuss what we consider our ‘Spec of the week’. This week we take a look at the Cobra King Tech Utility 3 iron. 

With so many fantastic iron sets and drivers being fitted, you may wonder how a utility iron became our spec of the week, however, with the summer conditions setting in, the ground is allowing the ball to run more and with that we appreciate clubs that are being fit for a particular purpose. In this case, the customer realised an opportunity to hit more fairways with a consistent club that fits between his irons and 3 wood. 

The King Tech utility, constructed with PWRSHELL Face insert offers more distance and the H.O.T Face technology allows for more consistent results with scattered strike locations on the face. 

This club didn’t only offer more distance, but certainly fit the brief in hitting more fairways. 

THE FULL SPEC…

  • Cobra KING Tech Utility 3 iron
  • 19º Loft
  • 1/4” Longer in length
  • 3º Upright
  • Project X Catalyst 80g 6.0 Stiff shaft
  • Golf Pride Z Grip Align + 1 additional layer of tape
  • Custom Fit @ AFGolfStore Cambridge

Stop Wasting Your Money On The WRONG Clubs!

We are now entering the season of new golf club launches. From now through to early Spring we will begin to see all the latest models from golfs leading brands. 

As exciting as this is, we’re here to remind you to stop wasting your money on the wrong clubs. 

We will often have conversations with golfers who have purchased new equipment and it’s surprising how often we hear that performances have declined or the player is unhappy with their purchase. 

The simple reason for this is because the golfer was not custom fitted correctly (or at all) for their equipment and in many cases is selecting the best club from a small selection of choice. 

Mizuno's JPX923 was released in early Autumn

10,000+ HEAD, SHAFT & GRIP COMBINATION CHOICES

HOW DO WE ENSURE YOU GET THE RIGHT CLUBS?

We use Trackman to give us accurate data, such as, ball speed, spin rates, distances and more. This data will allow us to make the best recommendations in clubs to ensure we see performance gains that you need to improve your golf.

Having great wedges that are custom fit to your needs in terms of loft, length, shaft, bounce, grind and grip is one thing. Being able to personalize your wedges to make them bespoke and stand out in the bag is certainly another.

Our Workshop is always looking for ways to give that extra little colour and spice to your new clubs.

The team have invested in a new stamping and paint set which means that we are able to put 4 different styles of stamping onto a new wedge, or even add to your current wedges. It will take 24 hours from design to completion and our workshop team will be on hand to guide you through the design process.

This funky new service costs £19.99 per wedge or £50 for 3 wedges, can be ordered online or in store. 

The 4 main styles that we are offering are

Straight – this can be any word in a straight line of the back of the head

Dancing – this means the letter move around at slight angles to give the illusion the words are dancing across your wedge

Two Lines – this allows to two lines of straight text, ideal for children’s names for example

Snowdrop – 2 letters for example initials, 10 times random all over the back of the wedge.
