Cobra joins march of the mallets |  |  |
Cobra IM putters
|
More and more of us - both amateurs and professionals - are turning to the big-headed mallet putters for salvation from our woes on the green.
Often a cross between a hammer and a small shovel, these mallets were surely derived from the original 'three-ball' putter introduced by DA Weibring in the early 1990s and banned by the authorities until Odyssey brought in its conforming two-ball model.
Now innovative Cobra Golf has joined the scrum for our attention with its Inner Mallet range of big-headed, back-weighted wands, demanding a pendulum stroke.

MI putters complete with striking headcover

The large, forged head is made from aluminium with a milled face that Cobra says 'provides a soft, solid feel, true consistent roll and improved accuracy.' It has also been designed to focus attention on alignment.
Finished in a two-tone effect, the IM putters are available from February in left or right-hand versions with either a large (IM-01) or mid-head size (IM-02). Shafts are either 34 or 35 inches and the suggested price, with its own distinctive headcover, will be £100.

With a bit of style
That's more like it and you can no doubt pick a ball up with the back of it too. |
