COBRA Re-releases 3D Printed LIMIT3D Irons

Filed under Predictable Things, COBRA has re-released a limited run of its 3D-printed LIMIT3D irons.

The original run was limited to 500 individually numbered sets. According to COBRA, despite the $3000 price tag, the original batch sold out within hours.

The fresh batch won’t be numbered.

Why 3D Printed

You’ll find a full rundown of the irons and the technology that powers them here, but the key takeaway is that 3D printing allows for the creation of complex structures that are simply not possible with conventional manufacturing methods like forging, casting, and even milling.

The internal lattice structures of the LIMIT3D irons allow for a full third of the clubhead’s weight to be repositioned to areas where it can improve performance.

adidas CODECHAOS 25: Peace Was Never an Option

Imagine, just for a second, a world with no noise. No distractions. Complete peace.

Sounds enticing, doesn’t it? Perhaps for a few minutes, it would be relaxing. But after a bit, it would start to get boring.

There’s nothing quite like the cry of a newborn baby. The roar of a raucous crowd. A theme park packed with screaming riders. Sometimes, it takes a little chaos to fully experience the highs and lows that make life so extraordinary.

Golf is the same. There’s a place for peace and quiet on the golf course. Golf’s most defining moments often start with complete silence. But it’s not the silence before Tiger’s putt to force a playoff at the 2008 U.S. Open that people remember. It’s the primal roar from both Woods and the crowd that lives forever.

Golf is better when there’s chaos. That’s ultimately the idea behind adidas’ flagship spikeless golf shoe, the CODECHAOS 25. An extension to my favorite franchise in golf footwear, the new CODECHAOS 25 is, among other things, “impossible to ignore.”

I’ll Admit It: Olympic Golf Is Growing On Me

I’ve long been a skeptic of Olympic golf.

Maybe it’s because the format strangely has no team element, or because the top players were slow to embrace the tournament. Or, as straightforward as this is, maybe Olympic golf is just new. The majors have ample history; Olympic golf lacks some of that context.

But after watching Sunday’s epic final round in Paris, I have to admit I’m reassessing my view that the tournament is on par with a second-tier PGA Tour event.

Will it ever be at the level of a major? Probably not. Still, I’m thinking Olympic golf might be on a trajectory to zoom past the FedEx Cup, Presidents Cup and even a few coveted Tour stops.

Here are five reasons why I’m reconsidering my stance.

The 2024 Vice Golf ball lineup includes updated versions of their popular models and a new model: Vice Pro Plus, Vice Pro, Vice Pro Air, Vice Tour and Vice Drive. The MyGolfSpy Forum organized a full lineup testing opportunity which involved 10 testers who evaluated these new offerings from Vice. Each selected member would test a specific golf ball, meaning we would have two testers for each model of Vice golf ball.

Best for high swing speeds and those seeking performance and value. Vice Pro: Superior control and feel, especially in the short game. High spin rates and improved durability.Vice Pro Air: Stable in windy conditions, balanced spin and consistent performance. Impressive soft feel. A great addition to the Vice lineup. Vice Tour: Consistent and reliable for mid-handicap players. Balanced performance and great value for a non-urethane cover golf ball.Vice Drive: Durable and forgiving, ideal for beginners and high-handicap players. Emphasizes value and longevity.

Continue reading for a full breakdown of all the new Vice golf balls. 

First impressions

The initial impressions of the testers highlighted significant improvements in the design and feel of the 2024 Vice Golf balls. The new finishes and sleek designs were particularly well received. The Pro and Pro Plus models retained their premium look while the Pro Air introduced an aesthetic that stood out. The packaging also impressed the testers with its high-quality, professional appearance that hinted at the premium performance of the balls inside.

What testers said: Spin

Vice Pro Plus

The Pro Plus model exhibited high spin rates, especially with short irons and wedges. This increased spin translated to better control and stopping power on the greens, making it an excellent choice for approach shots. Our high swing speed tester storm319 found the Pro Plus allowed him to impart significant backspin, enhancing his ability to hold the ball on the green. Tester hands39 noted, “The higher apex and spin were noticeable with my longer irons.”

Vice Pro

The Pro model offered even higher spin rates than the Pro Plus which was evident in approach shots and around the greens. This model provided excellent control, allowing players to execute precise shots with confidence. The high spin rates made the Pro ideal for players who prioritize accuracy and control over sheer distance. Tester 3putt4double said, “The spin rates with wedges were excellent, providing great stopping power.”
