Cobra changes the odds with its new Tour Trusty wedges

Published

on

In May, Cobra unveiled its Tour Trusty wedge with a limited release that allowed golfers to buy the tour-inspired wedge five months early.

As it turns out, those who bought one of the 1600 limited-edition wedges have a rarer club than was anticipated. Not only do they feature Rickie Fowler’s handpicked stampings, but they’re also the only Tour Trusty wedges the company will sell with odd-numbered lofts.

Kristine Owens, public relations manager at Cobra-Puma Golf, said the company originally planned to release the Tour Trusty wedges with odd-numbered lofts as an homage to its original “Trusty Rusty” wedges. But at the last moment, Cobra-Puma officials decided that even-numbered lofts were more in line with what golfers were looking for from a new wedge.

The Tour Trusty wedges are available in even-numbered lofts from 48 to 64 degrees, with multiple bounce options available in the 56- and-60-degree models:

  • A low-bounce model with less camber, less leading edge radius and a wider sole that’s great for golfers with shallower angles of attack.
  • A high-bounce model that has more camber, more leading edge and a narrower sole, which works well for golfers with steeper angles of attack.

The Tour Tour Trusty wedges will hit shelves on Oct. 1 and cost $119 with a stock True Temper Dynamic Gold S200 shaft.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping

Published

on

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.

That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.

On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”

On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”

“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Check out Shipley’s full what’s in the bag and the rest of his wedge stampings here on “Inside the Ropes” from Colonial.
