Exotics to release CB Pro U Hybrid

Published

on

In 2013, Tour Edge Exotics turned heads with its CB Pro fairway wood, which used a wave-like “Slip Stream” sole that looked completely different than other models. Two years later, the company has come out with a CB Pro U hybrid that offers similar same sole technology.

[quote_box_center]“After the success of the CB Pro fairway wood, I was asked countless times if I was going to put the waves on another club,” said David Glod, president and founder of Tour Edge Exotics. “Working with a more compact, hybrid club head took many hours in R&D to engineer, but I’m confident the U hybrid was worth the wait. It is already gaining traction on the PGA Tour and we are excited about what’s to come.”[/quote_box_center]

According to Exotics, the Slip Stream sole minimizes turf interaction, which helps golfers play shots from a wider variety of lies and can offer increased distance. Compared to the CB Pro fairway wood, the hybrid’s sole wave lengths have been reduced, and engineers designed new cavities on the heel and toe areas of the sole that promote even less turf interaction and greater playability from all lies, according to the company.

The CB Pro U was designed to be more workable than the company’s E8 hybrids, and has a 475 carpenter steel face that is combo brazed to a hyper steel body — a manufacturing process that helps eliminate weight from the face to improve performance. The hybrid comes stock with Mitsubishi Rayon’s Kuro Kage Silver hybrid shaft, and it is available in lofts of 17, 19 and 21 degrees (right-hand only).

  • Availability: June 1

    Pro can hit what they want and what they get paid big dolla to play. They can game dog turds duct tape to stick. No one here half as good as pro, they should play this club cuz they can’t hit long iron. I quit golf once I cant hit miura blades.

      Just to your statement that they get paid to play the hybrids, then why are they using different manufactures hybrids then their equipment sponsor? Just because the headcover says xyz company does not mean thats whats under them. Are the hybrids on Tour different then what most hackers have in their bags, most likely but you can still purchase pro models from your local shop or golf store that are engineered to help the better players (Tour).

    Will you get a special brush to clean out the groves? Can imagine those are annoying to clean after each shot.

      I have the CB PRO fairway and never have issues cleaning it. It surprisingly doesn’t get a lot of dirt caught in it. You are right it has to be cleaned but a towel usually just wipes it away for me!

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping

Published

on

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.

That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.

On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”

On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”

“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Check out Shipley’s full what’s in the bag and the rest of his wedge stampings here on “Inside the Ropes” from Colonial.
