The Tour Edge Exotics CBX 119 fairway metals and Hybrid 119 have arrived. The clubs are the latest version of the Exotics CBX models, initially launched in August of 2017, and the first Titanium face, stainless steel, carbon fiber sole club ever designed.

The new additions from Tour Edge feature a Speed Ramp Sole that has been widened by 15 percent from the company’s previous version. The widening of the Speed Ramp Sole was done to create a higher MOI and CG, which aims to reduce spin and increase distance.

The wider and deeper Speed Ramp Sole design on the Exotics CBX clubs surrounds a larger carbon fiber section on the sole, which allowed for more weight to be distributed to the face of the clubhead. According to Tour Edge President David Glod, 50 grams of weight out of the 215-gram total head weight has been placed forward in the clubhead in order to reduce spin.

The combination of the Titanium face plate, stainless steel body and carbon fiber on the sole has also allowed Tour Edge to save 25 percent of the weight of the clubhead to use towards CG manipulation, in an aim to lower spin and increase distance.

“Reducing spin is the number one key to adding distance to a lofted club like a fairway or a hybrid. If we will lower the spin significantly, we will win the distance battle. This is not as easy as it sounds. It’s tough to lower spin in combination with loft.

We knew we had to concentrate on CG manipulation and the only way to do this was to make the only fairway wood and hybrid ever made with Titanium face, combo brazed on to stainless steel and with carbon fiber on the sole have even lower spin rates than what we had accomplished before.”

The Beta Titanium Cup Face on each club allows for more flexibility on the clubface with the aim of making the fairway wood and hybrid hotter off the face. As well, the thinner and longer design of the face aims to increase distance.
