The Cobra Darkspeed X is the versatile, all-around performer in the 2024 Darkspeed family, combining mid-spin characteristics with excellent forgiveness. The PWR-Bridge weighting system connects the sole and crown to stiffen the body structure, allowing more energy to transfer to the ball at impact. A strong combination of distance, forgiveness, and adjustability at $100 less than premium competitors makes this a compelling option.
