Simon Dyson signs with Cobra Puma Golf

Cobra Puma Golf announced the signing of six-time European Tour winner Simon Dyson. Dyson, who's battled injuries and poor play the past two years, will be looking forward to breathing new life into his game. In his first event as a Cobra staff player, he missed the cut at the Trophee Hassan II after rounds of 79 and 75. The 39-year-old Englishman is playing a full schedule this season courtesy of his place in the top-40 career money list category on The European Tour. His best finish was a tie for 45th in the Australian PGA Championship in December. For someone who's won some big events on Tour, it has to have been a big hit to his confidence to see his world ranking at 1,432nd. Hopefully the man known as "Dys" can re-discover some good form and get his season going as the Tour makes its way back to European soil in a few weeks.

Dyson's bag (once he finishes testing) will have the following Cobra clubs:

KING F7+ Driver – Mitsubishi Fubuki K Series 60 X-Stiff

KING F7 3-4 14.5 Fwy – Mitsubishi Fubuki ZT 70 X-Stiff

KING F7 5-6 18.5 Fwy - Mitsubishi Fubuki ZT 70 X-Stiff

KING PRO CB/MB Irons- 4-PW Black – Project X PXI 7.0

KING PUR Versatile Wedges - 51,55,59 - KBS custom series X

Cobra doesn't have a huge stable of players, but they have some big names: Rickie Fowler, Lexi Thompson, and Bryson DeChambeau. It's not for the lack of boldness and style of their equipment, however. They make absolutely beautiful irons (especially the KING Pro CB/MB and KING Forged One-Length) and offer a lot of color for their drivers and woods. I like Cobra equipment so much that in my bag, 11 of my 14 clubs are Cobra. They are one of those brands that you just know will be a big player in golf equipment in the not-too-distant future. They have a great research and design team and are always thinking outside the box.
