COBRA® REACHES EXTREME DISTANCE WITH THE LAUNCH OF
LONG TOMTM AND LONG TOM RAWTM DRIVERS
The Long Tom Driver and Limited Edition RAW Driver Provide Maximum
Distance
CARLSBAD, CA (September 14, 2011) – COBRA is going the distance and letting it
fly this fall with the launch of the Long Tom Driver, a four foot long, ultra
light driver that is the ultimate weapon for jaw-dropping distance. But that’s
not all; COBRA will also release the Long Tom RAW, a limited edition,
pre-release version of the Long Tom that is hot off the production floor with a
RAW, unfinished cosmetic.
“We are breaking the mold with the Long Tom Driver,” said Bob Philion,
President, COBRA PUMA GOLF. “We are so excited about it that we decided to rush
500 RAW versions right off the production floor and straight to consumers.”
The Long Tom and Long Tom RAW Drivers are machines built for distance with the
highest length to weight ratio of any COBRA driver, Advanced Material
PlacementTM, E9 Face TechnologyTM with dual roll and the new ultra light
Grafalloy® Blackbird® shaft. Only 500 Long Tom RAW Drivers will be released
globally, each individually marked with a production serial number. The
unfinished cosmetic comes equipped with face and clubhead markings from testing,
giving it a unique appearance.
“Our new Long Tom Drivers are all about letting it fly,” said Tom Preece, Vice
President of Club Research and Development at COBRA PUMA GOLF. “The Long Tom
features a new Ti 8-1-1 face that generates fast ball speeds. This new
technology, combined with the long length and ultra light weight results in
extreme distance.”
The Long Tom name comes from a cannon that was used during World War II and the
Korean War. In the 1970’s COBRA released its first version of the Long Tom,
directly inspired by this cannon. It was a 46” driver and one of the first of
its kind. The inspiration from the Long Tom Cannon is seen in the new 48” Long
Tom Driver not only in its extreme length, but also in its cosmetic. The all
black, cannon cosmetic of the Long Tom Driver and the RAW, unfinished cosmetic
of the Long Tom RAW are fierce finishes stemming from the look of the cannon.
Ultralight Shaft and Grip
The Long Tom and Long Tom RAW Drivers are equipped with the new, ultra light
Blackbird shaft by Grafalloy. At four feet long and ultra light, the Long Tom
Drivers have the highest length to weight ratio of any COBRA driver, resulting
in ultimate distance. The shaft also features Speed Coat Technology which helps
improve the aerodynamics of the club system for increased clubhead speed. The
Long Tom RAW features an all
black, ultra light Lamkin® prototype grip, while the Long Tom Driver has the
Winn® Ultra Light/Shorty grip. Both grips are shorter in length and designed to
discourage golfers from choking down on the club.
Long Tom Driver Technology
Both the Long Tom and Long Tom RAW Drivers feature Advanced Material Placement
with a high strength thin Titanium 8-1-1 alloy face. This repositions up to 20
grams of weight to move CG (center of gravity) extremely low and deep, resulting
in managed spin and launch control despite the extra long driver length. E9 Face
Technology with dual roll gives the Long Tom Driver an elliptical face design
with a 30% larger Sweet Zone that provides increased distance and accuracy to
shots hit from the low heel to high toe. The new canted bulge and dual roll on
the club face provide more distance to shots hit above and below the centerline.
