IMPROVE YOUR LONG GAME

If your long game is on song - straight and accurate - then your confidence builds from tee to green and the game feels a lot easier! US tour player Lexi Thompson is an ambassador for leading equipment brand Cobra and here are some useful tips to help you make the perfect strike along with the range of FLY-Z woods to encourage better results.

To help improve your long game Cobra offer a selection of clubs to do the job:

COBRA FLY-Z DRIVER

This driver is engineered to deliver the ultimate blend of maximum distance and increased forgiveness. The low, back CG Zone Weighting delivers low spin, mid-high launch and fast ball speeds across the face.

The E9 Zone Face structure and Crown Zone Weighting combine to create a large amount of discretionary weight in an all titanium driver. The weight saved is strategically positioned low and back in the head where the back zone weight is located. (Note: the Fly-Z driver in its fixed, back CG position yields approximately 1 degree of increased launch angle and approximately 300 RPM’s of additional spin than the Fly-Z+ driver in the back FlipZone position, and is more stable on off-center hits).

MyFly8 technology allows golfers to choose from eight simple adjustable loft/trajectory settings (9.0o-12.0o) to maximize distance and manage trajectory while SmartPad delivers a square face at address regardless of loft setting.

The Fly-Z technology was also reconfigured for women golfers so that CG, lofts (10.5o – 13.5o) and performance is maximized for slower swing speeds. The women’s Fly-Z driver is available in three colors raspberry, silver flower pearl and ultramarine and features a Graphite, Matrix VLCT SP shaft in ladies flex with a Winn Wrap grip.

Recommended handicaps: 5-25

RRP: £249

FLY-Z FAIRWAYS

Featuring a low, back CG placement, the fairway woods and hybrids are designed for forgiveness and deliver the optimum combination of a low centre of gravity and higher ball speed. This position combined with the new Speed Channel Face provides even more ball speed and greater distance on off-center hits.

The Fly-Z Women’s Fairways are available in 3-4F; 5-6F; 7-9F. Models are available in RH and LH in Raspberry, Ultramarine Blue and Nectarine colors featuring a graphite, Matrix VLCT SP shaft while Fly-Z Hybrids (4-5; 5-6) are available in RH in black, white, red, blue and orange.

RRP: £189

FLY-Z HYBRID

The Fly-Z Hybrids feature a Matrix VLCT Altus shaft and come in three models featuring MyFly8: 2-3H, 3-4H and the 4-5H are available in x-stiff, stiff, regular and lite flexes in both RH and LH. The Fly Z Hybrid features a Lamkin REL 3GEN 360 grip.

RRP: £159
