Tour Edge launches new Exotics EXS Driver
Tour Edge has introduced its new Exotics EXS Driver, which, according to the company, is designed for those golfers who seek a quality, high-performing product, but are constrained by budget.
The main feature of the brand-new product from Tour Edge is its Flight Tuning System (FTS). FTS allows adjustable sole weights to alternate between two different settings. Here’s a rundown of the two settings and what they are designed to provide:
- FTS1: Nine-gram weight in the heel, three-gram weight in the rear for lower spin, slice reducing shape and a medium launch.
- FTS2: Three-gram weight in the heel and a nine-gram weight in the rear for medium spin, neutral shape and a higher launch.
The New Exotics EXS Driver will also feature RollFace Technology and a new and improved SlipStream Sole. The RollFace technology incorporates modified bulge and roll on the toe, which is designed to promote straighter shots on balls hit off the toe. According to Tour Edge, the technology, combined with the enhanced sweet spot, makes this the most forgiving driver face ever produced by the company. Along with this, the new wider speed channels on the SlipStream sole are intended to improve club head speed.
Tour Edge President and Master Club Designer David Glod, explained why he believes the New Exotics EXS Driver will have a more significant impact on the market than any other Tour Edge driver before it.
“The EXS driver is absolutely loaded with technology. This is the most technology we’ve ever been able to fit into a design, and each one works in concert with one another to provide the best performing driver possible.”
“The shapes are beautiful, and we utilized only the finest in materials and components. I believe that at the aggressive price point that we are offering, the EXS driver will have its highest impact on the driver market over any other previous Exotics release.”
The New Exotics EXS Driver from Tour Edge will be available to purchase from Nov. 1, 2018, and will cost $299.

Wow $299? Guess it proves OEM’s can make a good product at a very affordable product.
It says “Dual Carbon Tech” on the sole, maybe that means carbon crown as well. If so and its still only $299 is pretty cool.

Why do all manufacturers show you the bottom of their woods? Maybe because they all look the same in the address position as everything else on the market for the past 10 years?

According to the rules of golfs the shape of the driver is fix. Yes you can make it a bit more round or more like a teardrop, you can change the color and put some tiny turbulators on top, but the design of a driver has to be ‘traditional’, so no major changes possible, no need for showing the top. That’s why the Wilson Driver from the Driver vs. Driver Show was non conforming. It looked non driver like from the top.
