Three new Cobra Snakebite wedges hit retail stores recently with the groove configuration maximized for spin, adding bite on the greens, plus there is even a new game-improvement model, the Snakebite-X.

 

Cobra had a real hit with the original Snakebit wedges introduced two years ago. At the time they earned kudos for a great name in a club category not known for original monikers. For the latest 2023 models the grooves have been redesigned to provide more spin and the milling is 11% deeper with 40% sharper edges.

 

The big news for this year is the addition to the lineup of regular and One Length models of the Snakebite-X, specifically designed for those needing help with their wedge play.

 

These clubs have a hollow cavity back with a TPU insert. Cobra touts improved feel, plus forgiveness for off-center hits has been ratcheted up a notch.

 

The teardrop design makes hitting shots from a variety of lies and the most difficult turf condition much easier.
