For 2021, what’s old is new again, as Cobra Golf introduces the all-new wedges King Cobra Snakebite wedges which bring together the classic King Cobra script on wedges packed with their latest Snakebite groove technology.

Snakebite Groove technology

Groove performance is all about precision, and the new Snakebite grooves utilize a new cutting method to increase groove depth by 11 percent and sharpen the radius by a whopping 40 percent to increase spin and on full and partial shots.

This is possible because the tools used during the groove cutting process are replaced more frequently to ensure grooves are taken right to the tolerances of volume and sharpness.

The engineers at Cobra didn’t stop at just tooling a one size fit all groove. The new King Cobra wedges feature a progressive groove profile to optimize spin based on lofts with the 48- 54-degree wedges having a deeper and narrower groove for full shots hit with square faces. While the 56- 60-degree lofts feature full-face grooves that are wider and shallower to maximize performance on shots hit at lower speeds and with more open faces.

The full-face grooves also help create extra friction on shots hit higher on the toe, which is something that occurs more often on shots where the face is opened up.

Grind options

• Versatile grind: An grind for medium to firm course conditions intended for a wide variety of golfers.
• Classic grind: A progressive width sole with a rounded heel-to-toe radius and trailing edge relief. This wedge works best for neutral to steep swings and under a wide variety of course conditions.
• Wide-low grind: This wide-soled, low bounce option works ideal in soft conditions to provide versatility while also preventing the club from digging in.
