Players struggling for consistency with their golf irons may want to take advantage of some new offerings from Cobra, which have the aim of lowering handicaps.

Judging accuracy and distance are the two key elements of all golf shots, but particularly with irons, as players want to avoid finding bunkers and instead give themselves birdie opportunities with their golf putters.

Among the new clubs that players can choose are the Cobra Transition-S golf irons, aimed at producing maximum game improvement.

The clubs are wide-soled to increase forgiveness, while also benefiting distance and accuracy.

Distance is supported by the use of Aldila NV-HL lightweight shafts in the eight-club set, which runs from a four iron with a 23-degree loft to a 56-degree sand wedge.

Meanwhile, the four and five irons are created to provide the standards anticipated from utility woods. The six and seven irons produce the performance expectations of hybrid clubs, with the higher irons being of the typical mould.

Alternatively, players may opt for Cobra Pro CB golf irons, with a focus on feel and workability.

Features include a lower centre of gravity, a forged cavity back and a shorter hosel, which help to support players getting more control on their golf balls through a higher flight.

Lower handicappers are the target of the Cobra golf irons, which additionally have a thin topline with minimal offset and a narrow sole.

Although not particularly common in the current age, a two iron is an option in the range for players looking for the extra control offered over a hybrid club.

Another option for more advanced golfers are the Cobra Pro MB golf irons.

A high level of playability is provided by the irons, with greater ball control offered by the longer hosel used when compared with other clubs.

Furthermore, solid ball striking can be guaranteed through the muscle-back, while a rounded camber sole gives players extra feedback in regards to the quality of their swing.

According to Cobra, "the new Pro MB golf irons give accomplished players the soft feel of forged 1020 carbon steel along with the refinement that comes with superior engineering".

A higher launch angle and pinpoint accuracy is created by the Cobra SZ golf irons.

This is produced by a maximised MOI created by the use of a wide sole and a heel-toe weighting system.

A urethane back cavity insert also enhances ball striking, with golf fans having the additional option of taking a lob wedge out of their golf bags when faced with a tricky shot from near the green which needs a little extra height.

Meanwhile, the Cobra S2 Irons benefit from a new multi-material design to offer improved performance.

Lightweight polymer materials help discretionary weight to be pushed low into the heel and toe of the club's head, while a Mid-Width Stepped Sole produces superior turf interaction for golfers of all abilities.

Camilo Villegas, Geoff Ogilvy and Ian Poulter are among the professionals to hit the course with golf equipment from Cobra.
