Tour Edge unveils new Exotics 722 series of metalwoods

Published

on

Tour Edge has today introduced its new Exotics 722 Series of metalwoods.

For the first time in an Exotics lineup, the 722 Series will offer two distinct ranges covering every product category in the series, the E722 and C722.

Exotics E722 driver

The E722 driver features an M.O.I. boosting 30-gram back weight that is designed to help produce higher launch angles and more spin. 

At the core of the new driver is the 722 Ridgeback tech that connects with a newly designed Ridgeback rail on the sole of the clubhead. The innovative design also features 34% more carbon fiber and a new Diamond Face VFT design that is thinner and extends further out to the heel and toe of the clubhead in a bid to provide forgiveness on mishits.

Here’s a rundown of all the technology in the E722 driver:

30-Gram Back Weight – An extreme weighting design features a 30-gram weight at the extreme trailing edge on the sole of the clubhead. The E722 Driver’s extreme low-rearward CG position produces an extremely high M.O.I. that is 18% higher than the previous iteration in design to increase stability at impact and tighter dispersion.

This equates to a top Moment of Inertia rating in a driver in golf: a 5500 g/cm2 M.O.I. rating. Additional weights are available in 20 grams, 25 grams and 35 grams and are available individually or in a weight kit.

Ridgeback Technology – This Ridgeback spine acts as a brace to produce more power across the entire face, including the extreme perimeters. TE engineers created a 20% thinner Ridgeback with increased structural properties and a Ridgeback Sole activation for the 722 Drivers.

The spine runs from the center of the face through the crown and wraps around the head to connect with a newly designed sole plate rail. The extra rigidity created by the brace through the crown is designed to produce a much stronger feel at impact and results in a crisper and brighter feel at strike.

Carbon Wrap Tech – Carbon Wrap technology replaced extra Titanium from the crown and sole with an extreme wrap-around design that features 34% more carbon fiber. These weight savings have been re-purposed to create the optimal CG location, allowing for greater face flex in the heel and toe, so off-center hits achieve greater power.

Diamond Face VFT Technology – There are 61 diamond shapes comprising of seven different thicknesses in an interweaving pattern in the new 722 Diamond Face VFT. They function as mini trampolines in a bid to offer hotter strikes across the vast majority of the clubface. 

The face thickness of the new Diamond Face VFT is thinner and extends further out to the heel and toe of the clubhead, seeking to increase ball speed on off-center hits while also aiding forgiveness on these strikes.

Internal Sound Diffusion Ribbing – Sound Diffusion Ribbing is strategically placed sound-enhancing ribs located inside the clubhead. The S.D. Ribbing is designed to improve the acoustic properties by directing and diffusing sound waves within the clubhead at impact.

Adjustable Hosel – The adjustable hosel allows golfers to adjust the loft +/- 2 degrees and lie angle through a range of 3 degrees. With three lofts being offered (9.5, 10.5, and 12 degrees), the 722 Series delivers a loft range of 7.5 to 14 degrees, while various alternate settings afford lie angles from 59 degrees to 62 degrees.

SpeedTested Shafts – Every shaft in the Exotics 722 Series has been SpeedTested to find the optimal custom shaft pairing for every flex, determined by robotic testing and validated by player testing.

Specs, Availability & Price

  • Lofts: RH – 9.5, 10.5, 12 degrees; LG – 10.5 degrees
  • Availability: Pre-order February 9th; At retail March 5th
  • Price: $399.99

Exotics C722 driver

The C722 driver features a smaller 445cc profile with a deeper face that is designed for the competitive player and features a two-tier front/back weighting system that allows for increased M.O.I. and spin rate manipulation.

The driver contains the new 722 Ridgeback tech that connects with a newly designed Ridgeback rail on the sole of the clubhead.

The innovative design also features 26% more carbon fiber and a new Diamond Face VFT design that is thinner and extends further out to the heel and toe of the clubhead for added forgiveness on mishits.

A two-tier Front/Back Weight System is employed in the C722 Driver that allows for extreme M.O.I. and spin rate manipulation. The C722 Driver will come standard with a 20-gram weight in the back and a 5-gram weight in the front.

This allows for adjustability at a rate of +/- 300 RPMs of spin rate when the weights are switched. The M.O.I. range adjustment is from 4950 g/cm2 to 4400 g/cm2, making for available M.O.I. adjustability of 11% at your fingertips. Additional weights are available in 10 grams, 12.5 grams and 15 grams and are available individually or in a weight kit.

In addition, the C722 driver features the same Carbon Wrap tech, internal sound diffusion ribbing, adjustable hosel and SpeedTested shafts as in the E722 driver.

Specs, Availability & Price

  • Lofts: RH – 9.5, 10.5 degrees; LG – 10.5 degrees
  • Availability: Pre-order February 9th; At retail March 5th
  • Price: $429.99

Exotics E722 fairway metal

The shallow-faced E722 is aimed at players looking for maximum forgiveness and distance in a fairway metal.

The E fairway design boasts a Max M.O.I. boosting backweight and a Maraging Steel Face with an all-carbon fiber crown. It also features the RyzerSole sole rail designed to produce high-launch angles with optimized spin.

A new Diamond Face VFT design continues the evolution of Diamond Face tech with thinner areas towards the heel and toe in a bid to offer faster ball speed off mishits.

Here’s a look at all the technology behind the new E722 fairways:

RyzerSole Technology – The RyzerSole on the E722 Fairway Metal includes a sole rail and added weight that extends from leading edge to trailing edge. The new RyzerSole produces a super-low CG designed for high-launching shots with optimized spin rates, decreased turf interaction and maximum ball speed off the face.

Adjustable M.O.I. Boosting Back Weight – An adjustable 10-gram weight is strategically placed at the extreme trailing edge on the sole of the E722 fairway metal. The extreme low- rearward CG position produces an extremely high M.O.I. and a deeper CG position.

The position of the backweight helps deliver an optimally located CG, maximizing M.O.I. and aiding extreme stability and resistance to twisting at impact. Additional weights are available in 5 grams, 15 grams and 20 grams and are available individually or in a weight kit.

100% Carbon Fiber Crown – A Carbon Fiber Crown covers the entire crown area of the clubhead on the E722 Fairway Metal. The all-Carbon Crown helps increase face flex and contributes to the desired extremely low CG of the clubhead.

Diamond Face VFT/ Maraging Steel Face – There are 61 diamond shapes comprising of seven different thicknesses in an interweaving pattern in the new 722 Diamond Face VFT. They act as mini trampolines for strikes across the vast majority of the clubface.

The face thickness of the new Diamond Face VFT is thinner and extends further out to the heel and toe of the clubhead, in design to increase ball speed on off-center hits while aiding forgiveness on these strikes.

A.R.C. Acoustic Engineering – Upgraded acoustic engineering is achieved through A.R.C. (Acoustic Resonance Channels) Engineering. The A.R.C. sound channel system is a visible technology that can be seen on the sole of the clubhead. Internally, these channels bounce sound on the inside of the clubhead to provide an optimized sound and feel.

The fairway metals also offer SpeedTested shafts.

Specs, Availability & Price

  • Lofts: RH – #3/13, #3/15, #3/16.5, #5/18, #7/21 degrees; LH – #3/15, #5/18 degrees
  • Available: Pre-order February 9th; At retail March 5th
  • Price: $249.99

Exotics C722 fairway metal

This all-Titanium face and body fairway metal features a 90-gram RyzerSole, including an 80-gram Tungsten sole weight, to make for a great amount of weight placed as low as possible in the clubhead. 

This new tech will lead to a super-low and forward CG that produces high launching shots in combination with low spin rates.

Forgiveness is powered by the new Diamond Face VFT technology utilized in the face. It also features an adjustable hosel, the first in an Exotics fairway series since the EX9 Tour in 2016, and player-preferred shaping with a deeper face.

The C722 fairway contains A.R.C. Acoustic Engineering, an adjustable hosel and SpeedTested shafts.
