4 drivers tie as the lowest-lofted among Cobra drivers: Cobra DARKSPEED LS Driver, Cobra King F7 Plus Driver, Cobra Long Tom Driver and 1 more, all down to 8°.
All 79 drivers with a loft are ranked below, along with 7 more lists: highest opening loft, widest loft range, narrowest loft range, most upright lie, flattest lie, longest, shortest.
Every Cobra driver on record, ranked against each other and never against another maker's. A brand cut compares a line with itself: it answers "the most offset iron Ping publishes", and it cannot be read as a claim that one manufacturer out-specs another.
Each figure is ranked from both ends — strongest and weakest, most and least — over the same clubs, and each list counts only the clubs that publish that figure, so the totals differ between them. Loft, lie, offset and bounce are fitting specifications — a stronger loft is a longer-carrying club of the same name, not a better one, and neither end of any list here is the good end. How this is worked out.
Who they are built for
The 96 drivers by handicap band — DERIVED from published loft, offset and length by the same classifier the fitting uses, never taken from a maker's marketing copy. A club whose category publishes nothing to read keeps its own row rather than being sorted into a band nobody computed.
| Handicap band | drivers | Share | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Low handicap | 8 | 8.3% | |
| Mid handicap | 62 | 64.6% | |
| High handicap | 26 | 27.1% |

The lowest loft the model is sold in. A driver line opening at 8° and one opening at 10.5° are aimed at different players; this is that difference, stated in the manufacturer’s own numbers. Irons are excluded — their lowest loft is whichever long iron the set happens to start at, which measures set composition rather than the club.

When they launched
Model year, where the record carries one — 59 of the 96 in this cut. A model year is when a club launched, not when it was designed or when it left the shops. Each year with enough clubs behind it links to that year's own boards.
