The Limited Edition ZL Driver utilizes advanced multi-material construction and Adjustable Flight Technology and is paired with a high performance Fujikura Motore Speeder shaft. This exclusive product is ideal for the accomplished player who wants a collectible driver with Tour-calibre performance.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Limited Edition ZL Driver is a distinct offering for our loyal customers,\u201d says Brian Zender, Senior Vice President and General Manager of COBRA-PUMA GOLF. \u201cThe ZL Driver is regarded as one of the highest performing drivers in the market. The Limited Edition ZL demonstrates the unique attitude of the Cobra brand, and our focus on superior performance and innovative design.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new driver made its Tour debut this week, as COBRA GOLF staffer Ian Poulter \u2013 who plays the ZL Driver on the PGA Tour \u2013 teed up the all-white ZL Driver at the World Golf Championships-HSBC Champions event in Shanghai.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s been a year since my first win with my Cobra ZL Driver, and what a better way to celebrate it than with this Limited Edition model,\u201d says Poulter. \u201cI like the visual of the new white ZL, it\u2019s really very cool. It\u2019s unique and different than any driver I\u2019ve seen \u2013 plus its performance is great, too. It has the identical performance of the driver that I\u2019ve won with twice.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>TOP-OF-THE-LINE SHAFT AND GRIP<br \/>\nThe custom all-white, 46\u201d Fujikura Motore Speeder VC 6.0 shaft offers superior overall feel and stabilisation for unparalleled distance and accuracy, and also features exclusive custom laser-etched graphics. <\/p>\n<p>The white grip is a Golf Pride Tour Wrap 2G model. It\u2019s a one-piece, simulated wrap with enhanced tackiness. Incredibly soft, it combines the look and feel of premium leather with the durability and performance of high-tack rubber.<\/p>\n<p>ZL DRIVER TECHNOLOGY<br \/>\nAs with the original ZL Driver, the Limited Edition ZL Driver features an optimised, traditional clubhead shape that maximizes distance, accuracy and forgiveness. Its multi-material construction includes the lightweight carbon fiber crown and sole, complemented by a 6-4 titanium clubhead body and clubface contributing to higher ball speeds and maximum distance. The clubface utilises Cobra\u2019s patented 9 Point Face Technology, bolstered by a milled rhombus, laser-welded face insert plus a thin titanium perimeter.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Cobra\u2019s exclusive Adjustable Flight Technology features an adjustable hosel that golfers can quickly and easily set to one of three face angles (O-open, N-neutral, C-closed), to optimise ball flight and distance.<\/p>\n<p>       9 Point Face Technology<br \/>\n\uf083        A milled rhombus face insert, surrounded by a thin titanium perimeter, creates nine points across a massive Sweet Zone\u2122 that generate increased ball speed, even on off-center hits.<\/p>\n<p>        Advanced Multi-Material Construction<br \/>\n\uf083        The carbon fiber crown and sole, titanium 6-4 body and face, along with the swingweight screw, provide optimal CG, MOI and spin characteristics for high launch, increased distance and control.<\/p>\n<p>        Adjustable Flight Technology (AFT)<br \/>\n\uf083        Three face angle settings (open, neutral and closed) are easy to set, and allow golfers to find the one setting that optimizes their ball flight for maximum distance and accuracy.<\/p>\n<p>The Cobra Limited Edition ZL Driver (SRP \u00a3399) is available in lofts of 9.5\u00b0 and 10.5\u00b0, in men\u2019s right-handed with Fujikura Motore Speeder VC 6.0 stiff flex shaft.
