I recently finished reading Greg Norman’s autobiography, The Way of the Shark, and was intrigued by his role in the early success of the company (which has since been bought by Titleist). One of the products he mentioned was Cobra’s pioneering hybrid-utility club, the Baffler.

As it turns out, the Baffler has been around since 1975, and has survived in various forms over the years.

The latest is the Baffler TWSl, which stands for Triple Weight System. As with virtually every club these days, the goal is to move the weight back and to the perimeter for a higher launch and greater forgiveness through increased Moment of Inertia. The Baffler TWS has a 275 Maraging Steen Face Insert that’s laser welded to the body. Cobra says this gives the club faster ball speeds on off center hits. The Baffler also features the contoured sole that makes it easy to play from lots of lies.

Overall, however, the new one is still clearly the descendant of the original design. Cobra was ahead of its time on that one.
