If the latest news of new Ping and Cobra products available at Golfbuyitonline hasn’t done anything for you, then check out the latest Callaway and TaylorMade products!

Callaway’s latest addition to the X-Series is the Callaway X-22 Iron Set.  The goal of the X-Series Irons has always been a big one: Set the performance standard for the industry.  These are definitely the best irons Callaway have ever created.  Precision Notch Weighting precisely positions more weight to the perimeter of the iron to create a higher moment of inertia for greater forgiveness and stability while maintaining the centre of gravity position that produces ideal trajectories and feel.

The Callaway X-22 Irons are available in steel, graphite and ladies models.  The steel and graphite sets come as 4-SW as standard whereas the ladies set comes as 5-SW as standard.

The new TaylorMade Burner Plus Irons are nothing short of brilliant.  They feature legendary Burner power plus maximum TaylorMade forgiveness.  The TaylorMade Burner Plus Irons are designed to make the game as easy as possible for golfers everywhere.  They are not the prettiest to look down on as they feature a chunky top line and big face but where they may lack in the aesthetics department, they more than make up for it in performance.

The TaylorMade Burner Plus Irons are available in graphite, steel and ladies models with the steel and graphite options available as 4-SW and the ladies set available as 5-SW as standard.

TaylorMade’s other new release are the TaylorMade Tour Preferred Irons.  The Tour Preferred Irons have been engineered to blend modern technology with classic design.  These irons feature TaylorMade’s renowned Inverted Cone clubface technology which was originally developed to improve the average distance of TaylorMade drivers.  Inverted Cone technology expands the area of the clubface that delivers high ball speed, promoting greater distance on off-centre hits and helping to maintain consistent distance from shot to shot.

The TaylorMade Tour Preferred Irons are available in steel and graphite and come in sets 3-PW or 4-SW, so the choice is yours.

No doubt you have already been given your children’s Christmas list to give to Santa asking for all sorts of things that they will never use, so if you’ve got a junior golfer in your family, why not get them something they’ll thank you for in later years – A set of junior clubs.

Golfbuyitonline stock and supply a fantastic range of junior package sets from top golf brands including Ping, Nike, Cobra and Masters.  Tiger Woods’ father Earl Woods knew clubs that were too heavy, too long or had grips that were too large could all contribute to the development of bad swing habits in junior golfers.  There are still some junior golfers out there using cut-down adult clubs and picking up nasty swing habits.  By introducing them to clubs specifically created for junior golfers they can improve their game and get rid of shocking swing habits.

There are two junior package sets from Ping Golf available from Golfbuyitonline, the Moxie set and the Pal set.  The Moxie set is designed for golfers aged between 9 and 11 where as the Pal set is designed with golfers aged between 6 and 8 in mind.  Each Ping Junior Set comes with a 300cc titanium driver, a stainless steel hybrid, 7 and 9 irons, a sand wedge, an Anser putter and a Lightweight Stand Bag, everything a junior golfer needs to improve their game.

The Nike junior range includes junior package sets such as the Nike Birdie Blue Junior Set, Nike Par Red Junior Set, Nike Tiger Woods Junior Black Set and Nike Tiger Woods Junior Red Set.  The Nike Par Red Junior Set is the starter level junior package set which is made for junior golfers aged 4 to 7.  The Nike Birdie Blue Junior Set is the next level up which is perfect for junior golfers aged between 7 and 11.  The Nike Tiger Woods Junior Sets include everything a junior golfer needs as well as a two-pack of EZ-Distance Golf Balls and a lightweight carry bag.  The Tiger Woods Junior Red Set is designed for junior golfers aged 5-7 whereas the Tiger Woods Junior Black Set is designed for junior golfers aged 8-11.

Ping is known for their excellence when it comes to manufacturing putters, and the new iWi range is no different.  New for the 2009 season, the Ping iWi range offers players the chance to customise the feel of their most recent putter by moving weights around in the head. Available in six different designs, the Ping iWi putters can be adjusted to give players the flexibility to find the right set-up for them.

iWi stands for Interchangeable Weight Inserts, as each putter in the range comes with two 12 gram stainless steel sole weights and a two-piece 304 stainless steel/elastomer insert providing you with the incredible feel and performance found in Ping putters for nearly 50 years.

The full range of Ping iWi Putters includes the Ping iWi Anser Putter, Ping iWi B60 Putter, Ping iWi Craz-E Putter, Ping iWi Half Craz-E Putter, Ping iWi D66 Putter and the Ping iWi Zing Putter.  Also available is an additional iWi weight kit, providing you with even more control over the feel of your Ping iWi putter.

Our PGA Professionals have had a go with the iWi B60 and the iWi Anser and think both are fantastic additions to the Ping family, in particular the iWi Anser which features all of the textbook, classic Anser looks.

Cobra has launched its new Cobra L5V Driver complete with two adjustable settings, engineered to produce longer and straighter drives. The Cobra L5V driver is designed to offer more forgiveness than previous Cobra drivers and its adjustable clubhead setting means players will have even more control over their ball flight and dispersion.

The new L5V driver has two adjustable settings, “Standard” and “Draw-Biased” and players are able to use the Cobra L5V fitting torque wrench to switch between the two.  The Draw-Biased setting will surely be seen as a game saver for higher handicappers who struggle with a right-to-left shape off the tee.

Our PGA Professionals have tested the Cobra L5V and found it to be an easy club to hit thanks to its large clubface (said to be the largest clubface in golf) and Cobra’s new Adjustable Flight Technology.  Setting 1 will offer forgiveness to golfers who struggle with a left to right shape off the tee when set to draw-biased.

The Cobra L5V Driver is available in three speed-tuned configurations to optimise ball speed for each player type.  The L5V X model has a loft of 8.5 degrees and is designed to give golfers with extreme ball speeds, high launch, low spin and added workability.  The L5V F model comes in two lofts, 9.5 degrees and 10.5 degrees, which are tuned for fast-ball-speed players, giving them high launch and low-to-mid spin for longer and more accurate drives.  The L5V M model is designed for moderate-ball-speed players.  The lightweight M Speed shaft and 11.5 degree clubhead loft provide extra high launch and mid-spin, generating increased distance and forgiveness.

The new Cobra L5V Driver is now available from Golfbuyitonline, an authorised Cobra Golf retailer.
