Sometimes equipment releases come a little out of the blue and really take you by surprise, and that was definitely the case for me with the new LIMIT3D iron from Cobra. Essentially what we have here is the world’s first set of commercially available 3D-printed steel irons that are looking to disrupt some of the best irons in golf. There has been a lot of early hype around this set, so here is my take…
From a technology standpoint, we are entering new territory. The goal of this project was to create an iron that looked and felt like a forged blade but offered the playability of one of the best game improvement irons. This seems like a very tall order as a lot of those characteristics are normally mutually exclusive, but Cobra has partnered with nTop, one of the industry leaders in computational design software, and has created a fully 3D printed 318L stainless steel body with a striking lattice structure in the center.
