Need New Wedges? Cobra’s Snakebite Line Might Be In Your Future By Ed Travis Three new Cobra Snakebite wedges hit retail stores recently with the groove configuration maximized for spin, adding bite on the greens, plus there is even a new game-improvement model, the Snakebite-X. Cobra had a real hit with the original Snakebit wedges introduced two years ago. At the time they earned kudos for a great name in a club category not known for original monikers. For the latest 2023 models the grooves have been redesigned to provide more spin and the milling is 11% deeper with 40% sharper edges. The big news for this year is the addition to the lineup of regular and One Length models of the Snakebite-X, specifically designed for those needing help with their wedge play. These clubs have a hollow cavity back with a TPU insert. Cobra touts improved feel, plus forgiveness for off-center hits has been ratcheted up a notch. The teardrop design makes hitting shots from a variety of lies and the most difficult turf condition much easier.
