Brand focus - Cobra Golf

With 2023 being the 50-year anniversary of Cobra Golf clubs, it’s a great time to take a closer look at what makes this brand so successful and long-lasting.

Its reputation may not have the size or scale of bigger golf brands like Callaway or Titleist, but since its inception in 1973, Cobra Golf remains a reliable, trustworthy name in the golfing community that’s favoured by amateurs and pros alike. Cobra sells a full range of clubs including drivers, irons, fairways, hybrids and putters and is known for its innovative approach to breaking the mould, e.g. developing one-length clubs, and introducing a 46” driver with a longer shaft for more distance.

THE HISTORY OF COBRA GOLF

Thomas L Crow (winner of the 1961 Australian Amateur Golf Championship) was fascinated by the idea that golfers typically bought golf clubs on a whim, hoping that they’d make their game better. He founded Cobra Golf in 1973, soon developing one of the world’s very first utility clubs - the Baffler - in 1980. This was a lighter golf club for ladies, seniors and golfers with an average handicap. Within five years, sales of the Baffler skyrocketed to over $4.5m, and Cobra still uses the Baffler name today.

In 1985, Cobra was the first US golf club manufacturer to offer graphite-shafted irons and woods. Then in 1994, the King Cobra became the best-selling iron in golf, and still, to this day, Cobra is perhaps best-known for its oversized, amateur-friendly irons. Cobra Golf has been a subsidiary of Puma since 2010, and 2023 sees the brand celebrate its 50th anniversary.

It’s not uncommon to spot a Cobra golf club in the bags of some of the world’s top players. Geoff Ogilvy won the 2006 US Open using a Cobra driver and bladed irons, and players such as Camilo Villegas, Bryson DeChambeau, Rickey Fowler and Ian Poulter are all known to have played with Cobra clubs at certain points in their career. Cobra has also had endorsement deals with Beth Daniel, Greg Norman and Hale Irwin.
