Introduction

Tee it high and let it fly! Are you looking for a driver that will save you some strokes on the course, but won’t break the bank? The Cobra Men’s Fly Z Driver is worth a look.

All golfers know the value of distance but hitting it long and wrong can increase both your score and your frustration.

Cobra designed the Men’s Fly Z Driver to give you the distance you crave, without sacrificing the fairway. Hit the par 5 in two or cut the dogleg. Make your playing partners jealous. Start collecting on side bets at the end of your round, instead of reaching for your wallet.

Cobra has been making high-performance, cool-looking clubs for years and the Fly Z Driver is another example.

Pros

  • Low center of gravity increases shot height

Cobra Men’s Fly Z Driver Product Review

The Cobra Men’s Fly Z Driver is not short on technology, leveraging creative weighting to provide both distance and forgiveness.

The driver has a low, deep center of gravity that helps you elevate the ball quickly – producing a high-launch angle.

It has a Speed Channel Face (small engineered trench) on the outside of the club that helps increase the speed. Even if you miss the sweet-spot, this driver still performs well and feels great.

Do you like having options? The Cobra Men’s Fly Z Driver allows you to adjust the loft from 9.0 – 12.0 degrees. Do you fight a slice? You can also adjust the club to help you draw the ball. In total, there are 8 different options for loft + draw/neutral (9.0/9.5/9.5D/10.5/10.5D/11.5/11.5D/12.0)

Trying to make a fashion statement? The Fly Z comes in several different colors (blue, orange, red, white, black) and Cobra is known in the golf industry for producing cool-looking clubs.

Golfers have been enjoying the Cobra Men’s Fly Z since it was released in 2015 – by going with a club that has been on the market for a few years, you can get a high-performing driver for a fraction of the cost of a newer model.

What level of player should give the Fly Z a try? While players of all levels will enjoy playing with this driver, the technology is designed to help the mid to high handicappers get their tee shots in the air and increase their carry distance, without sacrificing accuracy.

If you naturally hit your driver high, you may find that the Fly Z increases your spin rate to a level you don’t desire.

The driver’s head is aggressive and strong looking, but some golfers may find it bulky. Simply a matter of taste, there is no impact to the shots you can hit with this club.

The Fly Z is sold with a graphite shaft with 4 stock options for flex (X, Stiff, Regular, Lite) and a Lamkin REL 360 grip.

The driver also includes a Cobra headcover and an adjustment tool (to set the loft and/or “draw” setting).

Summary

Are you tired of slicing your tee shots into the woods? Losing distance off the tee and struggling to play difficult par 4s? Trying to finally break 80 or break 90? The Cobra Men’s Fly Z Driver may be the answer to your prayers.

The Fly Z driver leverages a low center of gravity, unique weight distribution, and a forged face design to deliver more distance and more accuracy. Hitting the high draw down the middle has never been easier.

Take advantage of the flexibility – try different lofts. Does the draw setting work well for you, or do you prefer it set to neutral? One trip to the driving range and you can get the club dialed in for your swing.

Proven in the market for several years, it is much more affordable than drivers currently being released by golf manufacturers. Invest in your game without feeling guilty.
