I just picked up a TourEdge Exotics 3H (18*) to add to the bag. Demoed it for a round and really liked it. Was the first time that I was 205+ yards out and confident that I could hit a ball and stop it on the green. One thing I liked (as opposed to the Adams Idea Pro Gold that I also had w/me to try out) was the slightly shorter shaft (39.5"). It probably shortens the club by a few yards, but to me, the extra control seemed worth it.

Anybody played with the Exotics? Like them? Dislike them? Just curious what other people have experienced.

What I play:

Driver: XLS Hibore 9.5* Fit-On Red (S)
Woods: Tour XPC 16* Graffaloy ProLite (S)
Hybrid: Exotics 3HIrons: Reid Lockhart 3-SWWedge: rac 60*Putter: a crappy $20 Academy putter (but it works!)

I got my 3 wood about 2 weeks ago and have been in love with my Tour Edge ever since. I never really gave them a chance and I'm glad I have.

I hit the 2 iron wood 19*, stiff flex. Looks like an iron with a fat sole and half a wood's back. Amazingly long club. I hit it around 240 yards. I was going to look for a 3 wood, thinking about tour edge again but this seems to be enough distance. I heard the tour edge cb2 3 wood was one of the longest 3 woods ever made and also forgiving so I was really considering picking one up but I don't want to lose anymore clubs out of my bag, I love all my wedges and that 2iw treats me well.

Yeah, I know a guy who plays the Exotics 3W...he's a pretty long hitter to begin with (and about a 5, so he's got more than just distance), but I watched him hit the 3W on the launch monitor and he was hitting it 290+. Maybe they needed to recalibrate the monitor, but I've also heard that the 3W is long. That's probably the next club in my bag I need to replace (mine doesn't really fit my game anymore), so I might take a look at it.

I have an XCG hybrid, fairway wood and driver. The hybrid and fairway wood are unbelievable clubs. I hit plenty of hybrids and 3 woods and none have the feel, control or distance as the Exotics. The driver has the same feel but I havent got the distance from it yet that I was expecting.... may be the shaft or loft.

I swear I can consistantly hit my 3 wood further than my driver so I believe the stories people tell about their distance with them.

13 Wedges

Hi,

I have an Exotics CB-2 #3 fairway wood and like it very much. Having said that, I don't care much for TourEdge since they don't have parity in their product line for lefty's. Glad to know you're enjoying your hybrid. The Exotics line definitely has interesting offerings at the cutting edge of technology.

    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
    • StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry 
    • So, Brendan Sorsby, Texas Tech transfer QB, was found guilty of sports betting by the NCAA. He admitted to it. He placed thousands of bets over multiple years while at Indiana and Cincinnati. This included betting on his own teams.  The NCAA rules ban athletes from betting on any sport (college or pro).  A retired visiting judge from Tarrant County, Texas has put an injunction on the NCAA ruling. He is a visiting judge because the first judge was a graduate and big fan of Texas Tech, and he recused himself. The judged ruled the following... "Under Curry's order, Sorsby is permitted to play for Texas Tech's 2026 season on the condition that he continues his treatment for a gambling and anxiety disorder and serves a two-game suspension (missing games against Abilene Christian and Oregon State)."  Don't get me wrong, I don't particularly care for the NCAA. That still doesn't mean that a college can choose when or where to say, "Yea we agree to these rules for all our sports, well except in this case." Here is a breakdown from S&W. The Hidden Weapon in Sorsby’s Injunction: How a Lubbock County Court Order Quietly Neutralized the NCAA’s Most Powerful Enforcement Tool - Law Offices of Snell & Wilmer By Ryan J. Regula On June 8, 2026, Lubbock County District Court Judge Ken Curry issued a temporary injunction in Brendan Sorsby v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, Cause No. DC-2026-CV-0791 (99th Judicial District... The main judgement made sense. Sorsby, I am going to have all this harm done to me if I don't get to play. The Judge, I agree. The penalty for gambling is too harsh, so here are all these things you must do, and I will grant this injunction against the NCAA. Basically, an analogy would be when a person goes into court for a DUI and they agree to all these other things to not end up in jail.  What sucks for the NCAA is the NCAA has appealed to Texas’ Seventh Court of Appeals, based in Amarillo. All four justices that preside over the court are graduates of Texas Tech University School of Law. It would be hilarious if all four of them had to recuse themselves 🤣. For those who like to read legal rulings...  
    • The chatter in my brain is when the distance is between clubs since I am pretty weak at shortened backswings, etc. I try to simply decide if being long or short is the better outcome and choose my club based on that and simply not even try for the “real” distance.  For me a full normal swing is what I strive for.
