Carlsbad, Calif. – COBRA Golf, a leader in golf club innovation, today introduced the limited-edition OPTM X VOLITION AMERICA driver. Featuring an army green colorway and military-inspired design, a portion of proceeds from the OPTM X Volition America driver will go directly to Folds of Honor Foundation, which supports the families of fallen American military heroes by providing educational scholarships to their families.
“We’re honored to stand alongside Volition America and Folds of Honor Foundation in supporting our nation’s heroes,” said Russ Kahn, president of Cobra Puma Golf. “This partnership allows us to champion their mission and encourage others to join us in uplifting the families of those who serve.”
The Volition America driver features the OPTM X model’s impressive technologies, including POI (Product of Inertia) Shaping, Adaptive POI Weighting, H.O.T. Face and FUTUREFIT33™. The groundbreaking new low POI design of the OPTM X driver, which is delivered via both improved shaping and adaptive weighting, works with Cobra’s other metalwood technologies to reduce shot dispersion by up to 23 percent. Unlike MOI (moment of inertia), which is a measure of how resistant a clubhead is to twist on off-center hits on the vertical and horizonal axes, POI measures how a clubhead rotates diagonally across all axes at once. For that reason, a high MOI is desired to correct off-center hits while a low POI is desired to deliver more accurate shots that don’t create as much gear effect. The result is tighter dispersion down range.
The new limited-edition COBRA OPTM X Volition America driver also features COBRA’s game-changing FUTUREFIT33 ADJUSTABLE HOSEL SYSTEM, the most significant and innovative metalwood fitting technology to date. The system allows for 33 unique loft and lie settings that can be adjusted independently, unlocking an unprecedented number of fitting options.
“Volition America was founded to honor the sacrifice of our military heroes and give back to their families in a meaningful way,” said John Sapiente, CEO of Volition America. “Partnering with Cobra Golf on this limited-edition driver is a powerful way to raise awareness and support for Folds of Honor, and we’re proud to see this mission brought to life through such an innovative product.”
The limited-edition OPTM X Volition America driver retails for $699 and comes standard (right-hand only) with Mitsubishi Tensei 1K Black shaft with unique graphics and limited-edition headcover. It will be available online and at select retailers beginning April 28.
