At the risk of stating the obvious, it’s a blade, dummy. One of Cobra’s 2013 mantras (and that tagline for the Baffler Hybrid Irons) is Golf Made Easy. Low handicap golfers and better ballstrikers

:: Flow Set – Dual cavity long irons (3-6) flow into single cavity mid irons (7-8) and full muscle back short irons (9-PW) blending forgiveness, tour trajectory, and workability. :: Blade Shape – Tour inspired shape and CG placement for optimal trajectory control. :: Forged Technology – Aligned grain structure on carbon steel and tighter tolerances to provide better feel. Worth noting is that even in many true player designs like the AMP Cell, lofts are creeping a bit stronger. Some other manufacturers make that transition earlier (between the 5 and 6), which is why the PW is 46° instead of the what many still consider the traditional 47°. Lofts are slightly strong (by that same standard) with the transition from 3° to 4° gaps happening between the 6 and 7 irons.

What would ultimately become the AMP Cell Pro started with Rickie’s prototypes, and then with input from Rickie Fowler, Ian Poulter, and Jonas Blixt, the design was refined, and finally made its way to retail. The story from Cobra is that the AMP Cell Pro was designed “in collaboration with Cobra’s Tour ambassadors”. If you want them, you can finally get them, and that’s all the matters. How about now? Actually, it was last month, but why split hairs. Fowler’s irons available to the rest of us. From basically the minute Rickie Fowler put a set of prototype Cobra blades into play, Cobra fans and Rickie fans alike have wondered when the company would make young Mr.
