Cobra DS Adapt Irons Review – Are They Good For High Handicappers
The Cobra DS Adapt Irons are large profiled hollow body game improvement irons with strong lofts and a strong focus on distance, forgiveness and consistency for high to mid handicappers.
There a plethora of new and updated features from the preceding Aerojet irons so lets see how they get on in today’s review.
Cobra DS Adapt Irons Overview
Straight out of the gate, these are large irons with proudly thick top lines and chunky soles.
There is shelf appeal with minimal over the top colouring but at the same time, they are competing with some great looking irons.
Cobra boast an even bigger and more forgiving Speed Shell Face Insert which wraps more around the toe and heel to give even more distance dispersion on off center hits.
There is more urethane behind the face too for a higher MOI and a better feel.
The Hot Face has been upgrade too with more sweet spots so you get a consistent flight wherever you hit the ball across the face.
The Pwr Bridge is also refined to lower the COG and get the ball in the air easily in these impressive 2025 additions.
The irons utilise TechFlo technology meaning the Long irons are big and forgiving and the shorter irons and wedges are smaller and more precise to hunt the pins.
Cobra DS Adapt Overall
Overall the Cobra DS Adapts offer a ton of distance, with a lowish and long flight and plenty of spin to stop the ball on the green.
They are definitely more forgiving than the Aerojets when you hit the ball on either side or low on the face.
The are longer and lower than the Cobra DS Max irons which are like mini hybrids for ultimate forgiveness.
Overall, very good irons that will end up in plenty of bags this year.
Overall Score: 94/100

Cobra DS Adapt Irons First Impressions
The first thing to notice about the Cobra Dark Speed Adapt irons is the large profile, decent design, the thick top line and the chunky soles.
The Power Shell face is noticeably larger and stretches further around the heel and toe of the clubs.
The hollow body construction now contains more urethane which helps increase the MOI and adds more distance while also generating a softer feel.
The vibrations are also considerably dampened while the speed bridge runs all along the bottom of the face to help with shots caught low and for players who tend to fat the ball.
The Hot Face technology has more data now and that is used to increase the amount of sweet spots across the face. The irons are quite forgiving on shots left and right of the sweet spot and when caught low.
Cpbra have utilised Tec Flow technology now so the long irons are longer and more distance oriented and the shorter irons are more concise with higher relative spin to attack the pins from 150 yards and in.
They have a ton of distance but also decent spin number which helps to catch the greens.
Overall very nice for high to mid handicappers looking for distance and forgiveness.
