We first found out about the new Speedzone range back in December but now we’ve got our hands on them to put them through their paces. Watch the review with instruction editor Andrew Wright and me here, and let us know what you think in the comments below or on Twitter.

Cobra King Speedzone hybrid: The Technology
The hybrid features a refined shape, making it slightly larger than a traditional hybrid. This helps create high MOI for increased forgiveness on off-centre hits. The back weighting creates a higher launch and increased spin for towering trajectories which land softly on the greens.
The hybrid is also available with the one-length 7-iron shaft so you can channel your inner Bryson DeChambeau.
Cobra King Speedzone hybrid: The Results
The first thing I liked about the Speedzone hybrid is the curved pear shaping on the back of the club. Lots of modern hybrids are squarer and more iron-like, which isn’t my favourite aesthetic, so I really like the more curved shape we see in the Speedzone model. I found it really easy to launch, but it also wasn’t ballooning up in the air, the ball flight was really controlled. The strikes were also consistently solid and I was generating high smash factors with every shot.
The hybrid is also available in a one length option. This was the first time I had tried out a one length club and the results were really interesting. Obviously at set-up the club felt very short compared to a normal hybrid but I actually found that it was a really comfortable length. I saw this in the consistency of strikes I got. I would say that, personally, I prefer the yellow detailing on the standard Speedzone hybrid rather than the white colouring used on the one length club.
