Their one of a kind design features the most forgiving\u00a0blade shape on the market, delivering the forgiveness that aspirational players\u00a0need, and the sleek looks and soft feel that better players desire.<br \/>\n3D PRINTED STEEL CONSTRUCTION<br \/>\nEach iron is fully 3D printed from 316 stainless steel. 3D printing provides significant\u00a0advantages over traditional methods of casting and forging, unlocking more design\u00a0freedom and significant performance improvements.<br \/>\nFORGIVING PLAYERS BLADE SHAPE<br \/>\n3D printing has unlocked new design possibilities, enabling COBRA engineers to create a\u00a0compact blade shape with the mass properties (high MOI, low CG) of a game improvement\u00a0iron without sacrificing looks and soft feel that better players demand.<br \/>\nINTERNAL LATTICE STRUCTURE<br \/>\nCOBRA took a muscle-back blade shape (similar in size and shape to the KING TOUR iron),\u00a0and transformed the inside of the blade into a complex internal lattice structure to reduce\u00a0the weight of the club by 33%. That discretionary weight was repositioned to optimize feel,\u00a0CG position, and MOI.<\/p>\n<p>  <a href=\"https:\/\/fairwayjockey.com\/products\/cobra-3dp-tour-custom-irons?utm_source=golfcom&amp;utm_medium=article&amp;utm_campaign=endless-potential-cobra-3dp-irons\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">View Product<\/a><\/p>\n<p>ALSO AVAILABLE AT:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/pga-tour-superstore.pxf.io\/jeMyNb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">PGA Tour Superstore<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cobragolf.com\/products\/cobra-3dp-tour-irons\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Cobra<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I\u2019m getting the same performance out of the 3DP Tours.
