"Carlsbad, Calif. (November 6, 2020) – COBRA® Golf unveiled today its Limited-Edition KING MIM Wedge, inspired by the instantly recognizable flowers that surround the most talked about three-hole stretch in all of golf. While the annual rite of Spring was delayed until November, the floral patterns on this wedge pay homage to what has traditionally been the year’s first major and allows golfers to take part in the excitement that this major continues to inspire despite its new calendar date.
Building off the popularity of the brand’s first fully Metal-Injection-Molded (MIM) KING MIM Wedge line (in chrome & black finishes), COBRA’S LE MIM Wedge features an eye-catching vintage copper PVD finish with paint-filled intricate laser etching that call to mind Azaleas, White Dogwoods and Golden Bells.
A New Standard in Wedge Manufacturing
MIM manufacturing reduces the amount of post-process polishing to create the most precise shape. Unlike traditional forging or casting processes, the wedges are formed from a 304 stainless steel powder and sintered at an extremely high temperature (1340°), resulting in a tighter grain structure and a softer feel that rivals that of carbon steel forgings.
Versatile Tour Grind
Inspired and validated by Rickie Fowler, the Versatile grind is an excellent all-around grind for medium to firm turf conditions. Additional heel & toe relief provides versatility to play shots with an open or closed face, while the sole notch design keeps the leading edge close to the ground without adding bounce.
Precision Milled Grooves for Maximum Spin Performance
A fully CNC milled face maximizes surface roughness and delivers precise lofts and groove shapes to optimize trajectory and spin performance.
Play Smarter Golf with COBRA CONNECT
A smart grip with an embedded sensor allows golfers to track their accuracy and short game improvements using the Arccos Caddie app using their Smart Device (iPhone, Android, Apple Watch).
To complete the design, the wedge features a KBS Hi-Rev 125 shaft with a custom designed green/yellow label and Lamkin Crossline Connect grip in a limited edition green and yellow colour scheme. The offering includes a 56-degree loft in right-hand only.
The LE MIM Wedges are available November 6, 2020 for $229.99 (CAD) per wedge at cobragolf.ca.
