Game Improvement Driver

Cobra built the Speedzone Xtreme for golfers who want the ball up in the air and don't want to think about it. This is the forgiveness-first driver in Cobra's 2020 Speedzone family, sitting next to the standard Speedzone that leans lower-spinning and more workable. The Xtreme goes the other direction. It launches high, holds its line, and stays stable when you catch one off the toe or heel.

The 460cc head is the biggest Cobra offered that year, and the weight sits low and back to push the center of gravity where it does the most good for slower and moderate swing speeds. That placement is what gets the ball climbing without you having to help it. The adjustable hosel lets you dial loft and lie across a range of settings, so if your launch is still too low or you fight a slice, you have room to fix it at the club rather than in your swing.

What you give up is a little bit of shot-shaping control. The Xtreme wants to go straight and high, and it's very good at that. If you're a mid-to-high handicapper who loses distance because your drives balloon or fall out of the sky early, this is the kind of head that quietly fixes the problem.

• Mid to high handicappers who lose yards because their drives launch too low or spin too much and drop early.
• Moderate swing speed players who need help getting the ball airborne without changing their swing.
• Anyone who slices and wants an adjustable hosel with draw settings to straighten out ball flight.
• Golfers who value forgiveness and a stable head over the ability to shape shots both ways.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the Speedzone Xtreme and the standard Speedzone driver?

The standard Speedzone has a front-to-back sliding weight track so you can tune spin and trajectory, and it leans lower-spinning and more workable. The Xtreme replaces that with a fixed rear weight for higher launch and maximum forgiveness. Pick the Xtreme if you want the ball up and straight, and the standard model if you want lower spin and shot control.

Is the Speedzone Xtreme good for high handicappers?

Yes. The low-back weighting, large 460cc head, and high launch make it one of the more forgiving drivers in the 2020 lineup. It holds ball speed on off-center hits and gets the ball airborne easily, which is exactly what most higher handicappers need.

Can you adjust the loft on the Speedzone Xtreme?

Yes. It uses Cobra's MyFly8 hosel with eight loft settings plus draw-biased positions, so you can raise or lower launch and dial in lie angle. That adjustability lets you fine-tune ball flight or fight a slice without changing anything in your swing.

Does the Speedzone Xtreme spin too much?

It spins more than the standard Speedzone by design, since the fixed rear weight and high-launch setup trade low spin for stability and easy carry. For faster swing speeds that already launch high, that can cost some distance. For moderate swing speeds that struggle to get the ball up, the extra spin helps hold carry.

What swing speed is the Speedzone Xtreme best for?

It fits moderate swing speeds best, roughly in the 85 to 100 mph range, where the high launch and added forgiveness turn into real carry distance. Faster, lower-handicap players who want to control spin and shape shots are better served by the standard Speedzone.
