Choose the MAX-K if off-centre strikes cost you most or you want a 12°.
Choose the X if you strike it well and want less spin.
DS-ADAPT X $299 · DS-ADAPT MAX-K $299, each with its shop and checked date
The DS-ADAPT MAX-K is the more forgiving: Cobra designed it to be its most forgiving driver head, rated it extreme for forgiveness against the X's high, and gives it a combined 10,000 MOI, with a fixed weight low in the back of an oversized shape. The X is built for low spin and a medium launch, against the MAX-K's medium-low spin and high launch. Both are 460cc with Cobra's FutureFit33 hosel (33 loft and lie settings), 45.50 inches long as standard; the X comes in 9° and 10.5° only, the MAX-K in 12° as well, and the X's left-handed builds are made to order except a 10.5° with the Denali Blue shaft.
Cobra's middle DS-ADAPT head of 2025, rated high for forgiveness on its chart, a step below the DS-ADAPT MAX-K: low spin, a medium launch and a hosel with 33 loft and lie settings, in 9° or 10.5°, with its inside weight set forward in the 9° and further back in the 10.5°.
Cobra's 2025 high-MOI driver, which Cobra calls its most forgiving head: a fixed weight low in the back and a hosel with 33 loft and lie settings, in 9°, 10.5° or 12°.

Each was Cobra's most forgiving driver head in its year: a 460cc head in 9°, 10.5° and 12°, 45.5 inches long, with a fixed weight low in the back and the same FutureFit33 hosel, 33 loft and lie settings up to two degrees either way.
Both were their maker's most forgiving driver head, built round a combined moment of inertia of 10,000: PING says the G430 MAX 10K passed 10,000 g-cm², and Cobra says the DS-ADAPT MAX-K reached a combined 10,000 without saying how the figure is made up.
