What changed in the OPTM MAX-K
Both come in 9°, 10.5° and 12°. The LTDx MAX moves a 10-gram weight between the back and the heel, and Cobra says the heel setting, with a draw setting on the hosel, adds up to 18 yards of draw; the OPTM MAX-K fixes an 11-gram weight low in the back for stability, and Cobra calls it its highest MOI ever. The OPTM MAX-K's hosel has 33 settings against the LTDx MAX's eight.
No shop we checked sells the LTDx MAX new, and used it costs less than any current Cobra driver new. Choose it if a slice is your miss and you want an adjustable draw for little money; choose the OPTM MAX-K for Cobra's most forgiving head new, or the OPTM MAX-D for a draw-biased one.

How the 4.0 adds up
The forgiveness score is our reading of what Cobra publishes about the head, from 1 to 5. It is not a test result. How every score works.
| Part | Points | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Head | 4 | A maximum-forgiveness driver head, the most forgiving kind Cobra made. |
| Forgiveness score | 4.0 | of 5 |
Draw help, lofts, flex and hand don't change the score. They decide which version fits you, and the picks for a slice or a slow swing use them.
