Tour Edge Exotics Interview & Pics

[HipCheck]

From the 2012 PGA Merchandise show

Underrated? Cult following? Maybe both describe Tour Edge. You alway hear they're long, but they're also forgiving. The XCG5 woods line is solid and the new iron sets - CB Forged and CU -- look good in person. Enjoy.

Any word on a new CB line of metal woods?

[RedWings1]

Those CB's look great and a ot like the GMAC Srixon sticks.
What shafts do they come with? Any word about the combo material on the CB's?

Thanks

Shafts: DG, PX & KBS Tour.

I've hit a few and liked them but I'd just wish they would ditch the cheesy exotics logo. Looks cheap IMO. but they perform well which is all that matters. I'd bag them if any retailer carried them in my area in left.

[Mr. Maxfli]

I went to get a set of the CB forged ordered and was informed they are back ordered until mid March now. Also, they don't have the price upcharge on putting the PXi shafts in them yet as well. Kind of hard to believe no news on whether they'll be a CB5 line up this year.

[MileHighClub]

Both of those irons look good. I am a big fan of their fairway woods. I have a XCG4 and it is the best FW wood I have ever hit.

[sncgolf03]

Not sure about the look of those irons, definitely not as cool and clean as the TEE CNC milled Forged. Woods look good though!

[budspfld]

Have been playing cb1 and cb2 3wood, nothing could get them out of my bag for the last few years, and I gave others plenty of chances. Didn't care that much for the cb3. About 10 rounds into my new cb4 with graphite design dj6 and the cb1 and cb2 are sold. My best purchase in the last couple of years.

[barkydog1]

I want that 2 wood. Probably the best driver alternative I could imagine, if it works as he says.

[floyd]

Played the CNC forged irons and they were great,,,wish they would come out with another set like the CNC forged irons.

[gmetcalf18]

pop out the black in the cb and they look good, I hope they do a cb5 I'm still on my cb2

[Big Ben]

Why do the Exotic irons always appear to have an inferior finish?

I attended a TE event during the Tuesday of the PGA Show. Expected low bullets from the 11.5 XCG5 3+ but it actually launched at about the same as my regular 3 wood...just traveled a bit longer with ease. (lost the 3+ long drive event on the course by a foot - 267 with a smooth swing)

Surprisingly easy to dig out of rough or even a divot. Lots of mass low in the head.

Went in to hitting it as a skeptic (always that way); came out a believer.

Nice option if you want to carry a 1,2,4 wood, have particularly long par 5's at your courses, or even as a "go-to" club off the tee as well.

Me too! Too bad they don't make it in lefty.

[Cooper]

Just went to a demo day and tried RBZ, Callaway, Adams, and bought the Tour Exotic 13 degree. Just a great club. I don't hit a very high ball but with this club I got it up in the air with ease both off the tee and ground. Can't wait for it to arrive

[Jhc09]

I just picked up a set of CB forged 4-PW after hitting them at a local demo day. They felt amazing. Cant wait for them to get here.
