Cobra’s new OPTM family of drivers introduce a new approach to accuracy and forgiveness. Rather than focusing only on high MOI, Cobra has engineered the OPTM range around low Product of Inertia (POI).

The brand has had plenty of success over recent years with their previous DS-Adapt and AeroJet ranges. They have made a slight pivot in their approach to the OPTMs.
Rather than chasing forgiveness through size or stability alone, Cobra has focused on controlling the complex twisting that sends shots offline.
Cobra OPTM Drivers: The Technology
Low POI shaping is the core innovation in the OPTM range. Cobra has used AI-driven optimisation and supercomputer simulations to shape the club head and position mass in a way that reduces twisting through impact.
Cobra believes this helps the face to stay more square for longer and improves direction consistency on off-strikes.
