I rember trying these clubs not that long ago, my mate brought some of there gear. Driver, Hybird and Irons.

I honestly can;t remember if it was there high end equipment, but im sure it was considering my mate only buys the best. It's really nice gear!

Driver was very very nice, he had a 7.5 if I remember right, was giving me a good ball flight, it had a low kick shaft on it, so it was kind of playing like a 8.5. The hybrid was really nice, a little high for me, but really really good feel.
The Irons were not the best ive hit, but still ok.

IMO, Exotics are Top Quality (with price tag to match). I own older CB2 3 wood and it is hot. I keep Exotics on my watch list and will definitely look at their drivers next time I am in the market. No experience with Exotics irons, but I would expect them to be high quality also.

i had a set of the cnc forged exotic cavity backs with KBS shafts... wasnt a big fan of the KBS at all, and the heads just had an odd feel to them at impact. They wanted to be soft, but they just couldnt quite be. Thats about the best way i could describe them, plus i hated to soles on them.

As for their CB2 3 woods, i havent hit a 3 wood that is as long as those suckers are. They cost as much as a driver because they go just about as far!

I have a XCG Driver and it is by far one of the longest, best feeling drivers i've ever hit. I have hit the xcg fairway too, fantastic, nice launch. I was going to buy but, resisted due to the cost. I recently demo'ed their Spin wedges and they seemed great (even off the mats at my local range).

Havent yet hit their irons though. But their woods are amazing.

I liked their fairway woods when I tried them. I think that Tour Edge Exotics clubs are expensive mostly because they are one of the few mfrs that still make their clubs in the USA. In addition, they use very high end materials and components.

Most of my bag is filled with Tour Edge clubs - I have the Exotics XLD driver and 5 wood, and the irons are all bazookas. I am upgrading my irons to Callaway X-20 tours (found a great set used, & the price was right), but I can say I haven't had any complaints. I did demo the exotics irons, and it was a bit of a toss-up at the end of the day for me, but I've leaned toward the Callaways for now. Their factory is not far from me (I've been thru it), and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their stuff to anyone. They are a lesser known name because they choose not to sponsor PGA pros, but it's not uncommon to see their fairway woods popping up in pro bags.

In my bag:

I have three Exotics drivers and a CB1 4 wood.

The 4 wood is the best fairway wood I've ever hit, long and has that sweet titanium face "ting" when you sweet spot it.

The Exotics drivers are excellent as well. 450cc, more of a classic pear shaped head and the crown is the most beautiful pure black with no marks whatsoever. They have classic understated looks at address and I like that. I hit mine straight, which is why they're in the bag.

What's in my bag (most of the time)

Exotics 12°, Aldila VS Proto 65S
Exotics CB1 4W, 16.5°, Fujikura Stiff
3DX DC Ironwood 20°, 23°, 26º Hybrids, Proforce V2 Stiff Acer XP905 Pro 6-PW, Dynalite Gold S300Inazone CNC Spin Satin GW 50°/8°, SW 54°/14°, LW 58°/4°Boccieri...

Really? Obviously you haven't hit their clubs.

They also have a lifetime warranty.

What's the estimated lifetime of a golf club?

Me too. I got the Geomax hybrid iron set a couple of years ago and I've never been happier.

My brother in law works for a golf association and gets a significant amount of gear from manufacturers. When I got back into golf earlier this year, he told me not to buy a driver, as he would send me one he had 'laying around'. In the mail came the CB3 Tour driver. To be honest, I had never heard of Tour Edge before it showed up at my doorstep. I absolutely love it. Decent distance, pretty straight (although I've never really had a hard time keeping my drives close to the fairway). The price didn't hurt either

Tour edge has great clubs - I game a 7w GeoMax and a 9w Jr max they are my go to clubs they allways seem to work great for me. I just picked up a T.E. West Chicago Putter and its great has a crisp tink to it when putting.

You should go try some Tour Edge stuff I bet you will like them.

Tell that to my XCG driver that they refused to replace for denting it while hitting off the deck.

    • Day 206 3-11 Focused on wider backswing and reconnecting arm in downswing. Wasn't really happy with how swing was looking today. Wider backswing is very different for me. Went back to do a some longer pauses at the top. Hit a few foam balls. 
    • This is an awesome breakdown. most of the bigger tournaments usually have one wave with the advantage, Thank you for the breakdown. If it is soft then it will be a lower final score
    • Over the past 15 years, the winning score has ranged from -10 to -20. Mostly around -13.  Here is Thursday and Friday weather. Saturday and Sunday weather. I think the course will play soft. Plenty of sky cover, lots of rain on Thursday. Fairways and greens will probably stay soft throughout the week.  In terms of tee times, I think Thursday morning and Friday afternoon have the biggest advantage. I bolded the big group of each set.  Most beneficial with the weather Round 1: No. 1 tee, Round 2: No. 10 tee 7:40 a.m., 12:30 p.m.: Mark Hubbard, Thorbjørn Olesen, Mac Meissner 7:52 a.m., 12:42 p.m.: Bud Cauley, Vince Whaley, Chandler Phillips 8:04 a.m., 12:54 p.m.: Emiliano Grillo, Christiaan Bezuidenhout, Max Greyserman 8:16 a.m., 1:06 p.m.: Kevin Yu, Cam Davis, Gary Woodland 8:28 a.m., 1:18 p.m.: Ricky Castillo, Ryan Gerard, Patrick Cantlay 8:40 a.m., 1:30 p.m.: Adam Schenk, Garrick Higgo, Matt McCarty 8:52 a.m., 1:42 p.m.: Brian Harman, Maverick McNealy, Davis Riley 9:04 a.m., 1:54 p.m.: Sami Valimaki, Lucas Glover, Matt Fitzpatrick 9:16 a.m., 2:06 p.m.: Michael Brennan, Harris English, J.T.

    • Things that I am or have worked on... 1.    Trail Elbow - Check 2.    Hip Turn - Check 3.    Rolled Inside - Check 4.    Wide Takeaway - Check 5.    Sway and Tilt - Nope, but I did a hip turn and tilt 🤣 I am giving myself 4.5/5 for my long backswing.  Great post! 
    • We have a very difficult but mostly showy course this week. Lets see what they got. This course offers so many chances to get into trouble it is really a mental minefield. I am excited to see who can handle it and who cant. Last year we got a foreshadowing of JJ and Rory, I am excited for this year Who do people have winning? what will the winning score be? I am thinking 12 or 13 under
