Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. How does the SG King Cobra ARC 2.0 differ from the ARC 1.0 model?
The primary difference is the willow grade. The ARC 2.0 uses a high-quality Grade 2 English Willow, making it a more accessible option while still retaining the same performance-oriented shape, profile, and handle as the Grade 1 ARC 1.0.

2. Is the SG King Cobra ARC 2.0 too heavy for an attacking player who relies on bat speed?
No. With a maximum weight of 1180g and its duckbill profile, the bat is designed for a balanced pickup, meaning it feels lighter and faster in the hands than its static weight suggests, which is ideal for aggressive batters.

3. What is the main advantage of the duckbill profile on the SG King Cobra ARC 2.0?
The duckbill profile shifts the balance lower down the blade, creating a pivot point that makes the bat easy to pick up and maneuver. This allows for faster bat speed, which is crucial for playing lofted shots and finding gaps.

4. Is the SG King Cobra ARC 2.0 suitable for a club-level batsman?
Yes, absolutely. The Grade 2 willow offers excellent performance with a slightly more forgiving grain structure than a Grade 1, making it a durable and powerful choice for dedicated club cricketers and league players.
