Cobra Puma Golf pro Rickie Fowler went pound for pound at the Honda Classic, outdriving the competition with his king equipment
CARLSBAD, CA (February 26, 2017) – Today COBRA PUMA GOLF athlete Rickie Fowler out drove the competition in a big way, bombing drives with his KING F7+ Driver, to capture his fourth career victory at The Honda Classic. After a pair of 66s the first two days at PGA National, Fowler shot a bogey free 65 Saturday to take a four-shot lead going into the final round where he finished 12 under for the tournament.
In an effort to find more fairways, Fowler shaved an inch off his driver length this week, using a 43.5″ KING F7+ driver, helping him average 303.9 yards through four rounds and ranked T17 in driving accuracy. In addition, Fowler recently put three new KING wedges in the bag, and is currently leading the TOUR in overall scrambling for the year and sand-save percentage.
“A great win for Rickie this week on a tough course,” said Bob Philion, President & CEO, COBRA PUMA GOLF. “Rickie certainly put on a show out there, pounding his KING F7+ driver! We are proud to put our latest and greatest COBRA and PUMA Golf products to the test on Tour, and we are looking forward to an exciting 2017.”
The new KING F7+ Driver comes equipped with COBRA CONNECT Powered by Arccos technology, a GPS and shot tracking sensor embedded seamlessly in the grip. COBRA CONNECT allows golfers to automatically track the distance and accuracy of every drive by simply pairing their club with the free Arccos Driver smartphone app to receive their performance data, access rangefinder GPS distances for 40,000 courses and compete in the King of the Hole virtual long drive competition.
