The Cobra Aerojet fairway woods are this year’s new development from Cobra, and they have made some marked improvements over the design of their already-beloved LTDx line. In this first-look breakdown, we are going to take you through a few things:
We also made a video with the VP of Marketing for Cobra, Jose Miraflor. He took the time to specifically break down what’s new with these Cobra Aerojet fairway woods and which one he recommends based on different swing styles. Check that video out here:
FIRST LOOK: NEW Cobra Aerojet Fairway Woods | Bear Creek Golf Club
While their previous fairway wood line was well-received, Cobra has found a couple of points of improvement to bring something even more competitive to the market.
PWR-BRIDGE Weight Design | A 23-gram cast steel internal weight positioned low and forward to decrease spin and increase ball speed. |
PWRSHELL with H.O.T. Face Design | Clubface material now stretches past the bottom of the face and wraps the front of the sole, increasing playable surface area and providing forgiveness for off-center strikes. The H.O.T. face is designed with AI to create the perfect variable thickness pattern to increase launch. |
These improvements allow the Aerojet to improve upon the LTDx in both performance and forgiveness by decreasing spin for added distance and increased forgiveness off of the clubface on off center shots. Both technologies complement each other perfectly, with the forgiving PWRSHELL face making it easier for golfers who strike the center of the face less-consistently to leverage the aggressive performance of the front-biased PWR-BRIDGE weight.
There are some notable features that aren’t new to the Aerojet lineup but are worth nothing for those unfamiliar with the LTDx. These include:
Similarly to the LTDx lineup, the Cobra Aerojet fairway woods also come in three different models to meet the needs of any golfer: The Cobra Aerojet LS, the Aerojet MAX, and the standard Aerojet.
The Aerojet LS is designed for higher-skilled golfers that can consistently get the ball up in the air and are simply looking to flatten their launch and extract more speed, distance, and workability from their fairway wood. This is accomplished by placing the adjustable fade and drawing weights up toward the face, similarly to the internal PWR-BRIDGE weight. It is the most aggressive wood on the list from a performance standpoint but also the least forgiving.

Who Should Buy the Cobra Aerojet MAX? This club is a great fit for mid-to-low-handicap golfers that don’t struggle to get the ball in the air consistently. Additionally, players who prefer a more traditional shape with modern technology and versatility will appreciate the Cobra Aerojet MAX. |
The Aerojet MAX is the opposite formation, engineered to create the highest launch and most forgiveness possible out of the Aerojet fairway wood platform. Instead of a fade and draw weight both positioned close to the face, there is a small draw bias weight toward the heel and a larger weight positioned at the rear of the clubhead solely designed to increase MOI.
It also has the largest address profile of all three woods, the shallowest face, and the internal PWR-BRIDGE weight is positioned more toward the heel and the rear to improve launch and correct slices. Dare we say it? (This club is perfect!)

Who Should Buy the Cobra Aerojet MAX? This club is a great fit for high-handicap golfers that tend to hit their woods low, struggle with a slice or generally struggle with center-face contact. |
The most versatile club of the bunch is the standard Cobra Aerojet. It provides the best of both worlds regarding performance and forgiveness. With a single adjustable rear weight, there is still room to increase or decrease the spin created by the club to suit your swing, but the general construction of the club is meant to be neutral and meet the needs of a wide range of golfers.

Who Should Buy the Cobra Aerojet? This club is a great fit for high-to-mid-handicap golfers looking for a standard fairway wood with some level of launch angle adjustment without worrying about their spin getting out of control. The level of customization makes it a versatile club that can adapt to different swing styles and provides consistent, reliable performance on the course. |
The Cobra Aerojet fairway woods are a game-changer for mid-to-low-handicap golfers looking for versatile, forgiving clubs that can help improve their performance on the course. With marked improvements over the already-beloved LTDx line, these fairway woods offer exceptional technology and performance to help players fine-tune their shots and take their game to the next level.

I’ve been at Worldwide Golf Shops for 6 years, and I’ve been playing golf for 23 years. I have played a few mini tour events but now compete occasionally at the amateur level– currently a +2.1 handicap. I am a bit of a tinkerer when it comes to golf and golf clubs. I enjoy testing all aspects of different products, utilizing various fitting systems and learning about all the different club shafts, club lengths, golf balls, and putter styles. Not just for my game, but to help customers of all calibers.
