By Jason Ashley – Custom-fit Specialist at eGolf Megastore: This month we are looking at some new irons that have recently been released and are much talked-about in eGolf Megastore. The three clubs I am testing and reviewing are: The Cobra King F7, TaylorMade M1 and TaylorMade M2. I can’t wait to get these clubs into players’ hands.
TaylorMade M2
The TaylorMade M2 has the new thin-wall Speed Pocket technology which helps improve ball speeds off the face. It also has the Face Slots that preserve the ball speeds when you strike the ball off-centre. One of the key things you need with your irons is consistent yardages. It’s not good for your game if the ball goes way further when you hit the ball in the centre because of the ball speeds compared to hitting it off the toe or the heel so this is a great piece of technology. In addition, the M2 irons also have the Geocoustic engineering which makes it sound much better when you let fly towards the pin.
First impressions when hitting M2
- Sit nicely for a larger club.
- Extremely forgiving.
- Fantastic distances.
Cobra King F7
The Cobra F7 has some interesting technology with its new PWERSHELL Face which is a thinner and stronger face. This helps your ball speeds increase which enhances your distance and precision. Cobra have used a high strength stainless steel L-Cup face design to help your off-centre strikes maintain their momentum. The F7s have a lot of perimeter weighting around the head which develops the size of the sweet spot and improves its forgiveness. Another intriguing thing to note with this club is that the long irons have a full hollow construction of the head, then the six and seven iron have a half construction and the lower irons are just cavity back. Therefore, the club progresses through the set.
First impressions when hitting F7
- Sits really nicely for a game-improving club.
- Impressive ball speeds.
- It’s a forgiving club but it looks like a player’s club.
TaylorMade M1
The TaylorMade M1 is a slight different version of the M2 with a slightly smaller head and compact body so it is designed for the better player. It’s got the same technology as the M2 so it’s got the Speed Pocket technology to help with ball speeds and the Face Slots for off-centre hits. The Geocoustic technology makes the club sound phenomenal, just like the M2.
First impressions when hitting M1
- Quite a bit slimmer than the M2 at address.
- Sits nicely.
- Brilliant distances.
