Cobra Long Tom Driver
When most club manufacturers brag about length, they’re talking about the distance the ball flies. For Cobra golf, that boast goes in an entirely different direction: the Long Tom’s shaft is an heroic forty eight inches! A “normal” driver, such as the new TaylorMade RocketBallz, clocks in at 46.
The idea is that the extra length translates to extra clubhead speed, which in turns results in greater distance. The theoretical downside is that the club may be more difficult to control. I say theoretical, because I build an extra long club a few years ago, and I’m not convinced I was any more wild with that than the extra short shaft GolfWorks Hero driver I put together at about the same time. For me, the main problem with the extra long shaft was that I popped it up way too much. I think the longer shaft somehow made me come in too steeply.
Still, this might be worth a look if you’re looking for a few more yards.
