Tour Edge Exotics E725, C725 drivers

The Exotics E725 is the first driver from Tour Edge to eclipse the 10,000 total MOI mark.

Gear: Tour Edge Exotics E725, C725 drivers
Price: $399.99 with Project X Cypher or Denali Blue shaft and Golf Pride Tour Velvet grips
Specs: Titanium chassis and face with carbon fiber crown and adjustable hosel.
Available: October 15 (pre-order); November 1 (in-stores)

Who it’s for: Golfers who want to maximize forgiveness and stability (E725); Golfers who want a lower-spinning driver that offers more ball speed with enhanced stability.

What you should know: The Exotics E725 is the first driver from Tour Edge to eclipse the 10,000 total MOI mark, making it the most stable driver the brand has ever made. The C725 produces a lower flight and less spin, but it also boasts more stability.

The deep dive: Earlier this year, Tour Edge released an updated version of its Hot Launch wood lineup for budget-minded players who still want modern technologies and performance, but the Exotics family has always been where the Batavia, Illinois-based brand has showcased its most-advanced gear. With the drop of the Exotics E725 and C725, the Tour Edge is keeping that tradition intact.

The newest Exotics drivers are crafted with distinct player types in mind. As it has done in the past, Tour Edge has made the E driver for golfers who want extreme levels of forgiveness and stability, while the C driver is for competitive players who typically swing faster and need more spin reduction. However, the Exotics E725 and C725 drivers are built around shared technologies and a greater emphasis on forgiveness.

Enhanced Stability

Despite being tailored for different player types, the Exotics E725 and C725 share some core elements, but the most significant point of emphasis has been on increasing the moment of inertia (MOI) and boosting stability.

The E725, which has a volume of 460 cubic centimeters, has the higher MOI of the two drivers and is the first Tour Edge driver with a combined MOI above the 10,000 g-cm² threshold. That makes it more resistant to twisting on off-center hits, so shots should fly straighter.

To achieve that, Tour Edge created a weight system in the Exotics E725 it refers to as Flight Tuning. It’s an 18-gram weight that is in the trailing edge that can be shifted to a draw, neutral or fade position, but in every setting, it pulls the center of gravity (CG) location back and down, which elevates the MOI while also creating a shot-shaping bias.

The Exotics C725, which has a volume of 445 cubic centimeters, also has a Flight Tuning system, but it comes standard with a 10-gram weight that stays in a center-back location. It still boosts stability, in fact it MOI is five percent higher in the C725 than it was in the C723, which it replaces, but not as much as the Exotics E725. However, the combination of a smaller volume and a more forward CG location should help to produce a lower ball flight and less spin.

Other Shared Technologies

Both the Exotics E725 and C725 also feature 360-degree Ridgeback technology. the original Ridgeback system had a titanium beam that extended from the topline to the back of the chassis, and was flanked by carbon fiber panels. The new, updated version of Ridgeback has a supporting brace that encircles the crown, allowing it to be made with 22 percent more carbon fiber to save weight while maintaining strength.

Both drivers have also been made with an updated version of Tour Edge’s 3D Diamond Face technology. On the inner-facing side of the titanium face, Tour Edge has added 61 diamond-shaped areas of various thicknesses, and working together, they enlarge the sweet spot and protect ball speed on off-center hits.

E725 or C725: Which is right for you?

The best way to tell which driver is ideal for you is to hit both alongside a training fitter who has a launch monitor and then study the data.

That said, if you’re a golfer who values straight drives above all else or are someone who wants to minimize the impact of mis-hits, the Exotics E725’s high MOI and more forgiving design could make that club ideal for you.

For golfers who seek to shape shots and who prefer a more traditional driver profile, the C725 offers lower spin, more workability, and more forgiveness than many other control-oriented drivers.

Tour Edge Exotics C725, E725 and X725 irons  

Here’s what you want to know about each club.

When it comes to the Tour Edge Exotics 725 iron family, the Illinois-based brand has tried to make three irons that offer varying levels of distance, stability, forgiveness and shot shaping for three different types of golfers. Many of the same technologies are found in each club, to varying degrees and levels, which allowed designers and engineers to level-up certain traits and attributes based on what players typically want.

The Exotics C725 (competition spec) is a better-player’s distance iron, while the E725 (extreme spec) is a classic game-improvement club. The new model, the X725, is a max game-improvement offering for moderate and slower-swinging players who need the most forgiveness, height and distance.

Here’s what you want to know about each club:

Tour Edge Exotics C725 irons
Tour Edge Exotics C725 irons. (Tour Edge)

Tour Edge Exotics C725 irons  

Price: $128.99 per club ($899.99 for 7-piece set) with True Temper Dynamic Gold Mid steel shafts and Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grip; $142.99 per club ($999.99 for 7-piece set) with Project X Denali Blue 80 graphite shafts.
Specs: Hollow-body design with maraging steel face and 17-4 stainless steel body.
Available: October 15 (pre-order); November 1 (in-stores).  

Who it’s for: The Exotics C725 irons are engineered for single-digit handicap players who want distance and forgiveness in a more compact iron.  

What you should know: The hollow-body design and perimeter weighting allow these better-player distance irons to create more distance and forgiveness while still looking like a club that belongs in the bag of a golf who plays in the A Flight in the club championship.  

The deep dive: The Exotics C725 irons are a “player’s distance” iron that merges game-improvement technologies into a compact, workable shape.

The hollow-body construction enables Tour Edge to place the center of gravity (CG) low and deep, which increases the launch angle and helps produce a higher ball flight.

The maraging steel face, which is welded to a 17-4 stainless steel body, is L-shaped and wraps into the sole, creating a hinging effect that improves face flex. By using a thinner steel face in combination with the hollow design, Tour Edge engineers have been able to increase ball speed across a larger portion of the hitting area, which means the C725 irons maintain their speed and consistency more effectively on mishits.

Internally, Tour Edge injected VIBRCOR, a thermoplastic polyurethane gel, into the hollow cavity of each head to dampen vibrations and improve feel. On the back of each C725 iron, a multi-material dampening badge made of carbon fiber and high-grade TPU further enhances acoustics and feel.

On the inner-facing side of the face, Tour Edge added its 3D Diamond Face technology, which includes 92 diamond-shaped areas of various thicknesses. Tour Edge claims they act like mini trampolines to help golfers generate more ball speeds and protect speed on off-center hits.

The Exotics C725 has the shortest blade length, thinnest topline and least amount of offset among the Exotics 725 iron family. The 14-gram weight on the back of the head is adjustable for fitters and allows them to change the swing weight of the clubs easily based on length or a player’s preferences.

Tour Edge Exotics E725 irons

Price: $114.99 per club ($799.99 for 7-piece set) with True Temper Dynamic Gold Mid steel shafts and Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grip; $129.99 per club ($899.99 for 7-piece set) with Project X Cypher graphite shafts
Specs: Hollow-body design with 360-degree undercut cavity, multi-material badge and injected thermoplastic polyurethane.
Available: October 15 (pre-order); November 1 (in-stores).

Who it’s for: The Exotics E725 irons are made for mid- and higher-handicap golfers who want more distance and forgiveness.

What you should know: The Exotics E725 irons have a low and back center of gravity to boost forgiveness, increase the launch angle, and add distance.

The deep dive: While the Exotics C725 is designed for players who want a compact look with an extra punch that maintains shot-shaping attributes, the Exotics E725 irons are game-improvement clubs for golfers who shoot in the mid-80s and low 90s who want more forgiveness and more distance.

Tour Edge Exotics E725 irons

As it does in the other irons, the 3D Diamond Face technology broadens the sweet spot to protects ball speed on mis-hits. However, with a larger size than the C725 irons, the E725 irons boast 103 diamond-shaped elements on the inner-facing side of the hitting area instead of 92.

The E725 irons utilize a one-piece, high-strength steel body construction with a 360-degree undercut cavity that reduces weight in the center of the head and pushes the CG location lower and deeper. According to Tour Edge, the CG is 10 percent lower in the E725 than in the E723, the iron it replaces, so golfers should find it easier to get the ball up in the air.

To improve feel and dampen vibrations, Tour Edge injected VIBRCOR into the pocket of each E725 iron. The TPU treatment enhances sound and feel without impeding the face from flexing or reducing distance. The new multi-material badge also stiffens the heads for better energy transfer at impact.

On the sole, a heavy rail helps the club glide through the turf, minimize digging and maintain more speed through impact.

The Exotics E725 has a thicker topline, more offset and a wider sole than the Exoics C725.

Tour Edge Exotics X725 irons

Tour Edge Exotics X725 irons

Price: $114.99 per club, with Project X Cypher shafts and Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grip.
Specs: 17-4 stainless steel body with VIBRCOR and 3D Diamond Face technology. Available in 5-PW, AW and SW
Available: October 15 (pre-order); November 1 (in-stores).

Who it’s for: The Exotics X725 irons are designed for slow and moderate-swinging golfers looking for maximum forgiveness and stability, especially if they struggle with a slice.

What you should know: The Exotics X725 is Tour Edge’s attempt to translate its “iron-wood” technology into max game-improvement irons, emphasizing high launch, more distance and slice-fighting offset.

The deep dive: With the Exotics X725 irons, Tour Edge has tried to make its most forgiving, easiest-to-hit iron ever.

The shallow-face design, large size and long blade length are meant to inspire confidence in the address position. That large size also gave designers space to pull the center gravity location down and exceptionally far back, away from the hitting area, which should add spin and create a higher launch angle.

Tour Edge Exotics X725 irons

Moving the CG lower and further back in the head also increases the stability and reduces twisting at impact, making the X725 irons more resistant to mis-hits. That should give golfers more confidence when they miss the center of the face, as the irons deliver straighter and more consistent shots across a larger area of the clubface.

Tour Edge added its thermoplastic polyurethane material, VIBRCOR, deep inside the 360-degree undercut cavity to soak up excessive vibrations, improve sound, and enhance feel. You can’t see it because the back of the head features a carbon and TPU back badge that stiffens the entire head at impact while helping to dampen vibrations and enhance sound.

On the inner-facing side of the face, Tour Edge added its 3D Diamond Technology, which includes 92 diamond-shaped areas of various thicknesses. Tour Edge claims they act like mini trampolines to help golfers generate more ball speeds and protect speed on off-center hits.

Finally, the sole of the X725 irons features a heavy rail, which improves turf interaction by allowing the club to glide through thick grass without digging in. The rail also has extreme heel and toe relief, which, combined with the significant offset, should help players square the face more easily through impact.

The Exotics X725 should produce the highest ball flight and be the most forgiving of the three new 725 irons, while also having the most offset and thickest topline.

Tour Edge Exotics E725, C725 fairway woods

The Exotics E725 fairway woods are for golfers who want more forgiveness and stability.

Gear: Tour Edge Exotics E725, C725 fairway woods
Price: $249.99 (E725) and $299.99 (C725) with Project X Cypher or Denali Blue shafts and Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grip.
Specs: Stainless steel chassis and face with carbon fiber crown (E725). Titanium face and body with tungsten sole weight and adjustable hosel (C725). Available lofts – 15, 16.5, 18 and 21 degrees (E725); 13, 15 and 18 degrees (C725)
Available: October 15 (pre-order); November 1 (in-stores).

Who it’s for: The Exotics E725 fairway woods are for golfers who want more forgiveness and stability, especially on off-center strikes, while the Exotics C725 fairway woods are for players who want reduced spin and a more-penetrating ball flight with enhanced workability.

What you should know: These are two very different clubs. The E725 has extra weight in the back and a low profile to help boost stability and encourage higher flying shots. The Exotics C725 has a titanium face and body, a low-forward center of gravity thanks to a massive tungsten sole plate, and it creates less spin, a lower flight and more speed.

The deep dive: Like the Exotics E725 and C725 drivers, these fairway woods have been designed with different player profiles. They share some core technologies, but make no mistake, they are designed to do different things for different players.

Exotics E725: Forgiveness and Stability

The E in E725 stands for extreme forgiveness, and Tour Edge designed this low-profile fairway wood to be easy to hit for a broad range of players.

The Exotics E725 has a 10-gram adjustable weight in the back of the sole, along the trailing edge, to pull the center of gravity (CG) location down and back, away from the hitting area. That low-back CG location encourages a higher ball flight, more spin and elevates the moment of inertia (MOI) to help the Exotics E725 fairways resist twisting more effectively on off-center hits.

Custom fitters can swap the 10-gram weight out in favor of weights ranging from 5 grams to 28 grams based on a player’s needs.

To enhance ball speed, Tour Edge gave the Exotics E725 fairways a new variable thickness face that has 61 diamond-shaped areas that act like mini trampolines and broaden the sweet spot. The company calls it 3D Diamond Face, and it dramatically increases ball speed on off-center hits.

The Exotics E725 fairways also have been made with Tour Edge’s updated 360-degree Ridgeback technology. It’s a reinforced area that encircles the carbon fiber crown to make the head stiffer and more stable at impact, while also allowing designers to use 22 percent more carbon fiber in the crown and remove more weight from the top of the head.

Finally, Tour Edge gave the Exotics E725 a RyzerSole and Power Channel. The RyzerSole is a heavy-railed piece on the bottom of the club that helps lower the CG location and help the E725 fairways skim over the turf and maintain speed through the strike. The Power Channel allows the lower portion of the face to flex more efficiently on low-struck shots and reduce spin.

Exotics C725: Less Spin, More Speed

The C in C725 stands for competition spec, and like its driver counterpart, the Exotics C725 fairway woods were made for fast-swinging players who want more speed, less spin, a lower flight and more shot-shaping control.

Unlike the E725 fairways, the C725 fairway woods feature titanium bodies and a titanium hitting area, which saves a significant amount of weight.

They have large carbon fiber crowns and the same 360-degree Ridgeback support system, along with the updated 3D Diamond Face design to broaden the sweet spot and protect ball speed on mis-hits.

A 10-gram weight in the back portion of the sole allows players and fitters to give the C725 fairway woods a draw or fade bias. However, much of the discretionary weight created by using titanium has been repositioned in the form of a 90-gram tungsten sole plate. The plate itself weighs 75 grams, and the steen fastener adds another 15 grams. Together, they drive down the center of gravity and pull it forward.

While the low-back CG location in the E725 fairway woods encourages a higher flight and more spin, the low-forward CG of the C725 fairway woods increases ball speed, reduces spin and helps the clubs produce a lower trajectory.

Exotics E725 vs. Exotics C725: Which one is right for you?

The best way to find out which Tour Edge Exotics 725 fairway wood is suitable for you is to work with a custom fitter who has a launch monitor and study the shots you hit.

That said, if you’re looking for a new fairway wood that emphasizes power and stability, the E725’s high MOI design and rear CG position could work for you. If you’re a fast-swinging, skilled player who prefers a compact shape and wants to control shot shape and spin, the C725 could be a better option.

Tour Edge Exotics E725, C725 hybrids

The Exotics E725 hybrids are designed for golfers who want more forgiveness, stability, and easy launch

Gear: Tour Edge Exotics E725, C725 hybrids
Price: $229.99 (E725) and $249.99 (C725) with Project X HZRDUS Red, Smoke Black RDX or Mitsubishi TENSEI AV Blue shafts and Golf Pride Tour Velvet 360 grip.
Specs: Maraging steel face with a stainless steel body with carbon fiber crown (E725). Maraging steel face with titanium body and adjustable hosel (C725). Available lofts – 19, 22, 25 degrees (E725); 17, 19, and 21 degrees (C725).
Available: October 15 (pre-order); November 1 (in-stores).

Who it’s for: The Exotics E725 hybrids are designed for golfers who want more forgiveness, stability, and easy launch from a fairway wood-style hybrid, while the Exotics C725 hybrids are made for better players seeking reduced spin, a more penetrating flight, and workability from an iron-style hybrid.

What you should know: The Exotics E725 is a game-improvement hybrid featuring a slightly larger profile and low-back weighting to promote a higher launch and added stability. The Exotics C725, in contrast, has a compact, tour-inspired shape and adjustable hosel and produces lower spin and a more controlled trajectory.

The deep dive: The Tour Edge Exotics E725 and C725 hybrids may share a brand and lineup, but they were made to appeal to different players and golfers with different needs.

The Exotics E725 has a larger footprint and lower profile that is engineered to inspire confidence at address. It utilizes a stainless-steel construction combined with a carbon fiber crown that reduces weight on the top of the head and naturally lowers the center of gravity (CG) location.

Tour Edge Exotics E725 hybrid
The Exotics E725 has a channel in the sole to pull the sweet spot down and a carbon fiber crown to help lower the center of gravity. (Tour Edge)

The saved weight on the top allowed engineers to redistribute more weight low and back in the head using a 10-gram weight in the back of the sole. This weight distribution encourages higher spin rates, a higher launch angle and a steep angle of descent, so shots should stop faster on the greens. Having the extra weight in the back-middle of the sole also elevates the moment of inertia (MOI), so the Exotics E725 hybrids should twist less on off-center hits and allow golfers to hit straighter shots.

Like the Exotics E725 fairway woods, Tour Edge designed the hybrids with its head-stiffening 360-Degree Ridgeback technology, and 3D Diamond Face. While the hitting area may look like a regular face, on the inner-facing side, 41 diamond-shaped ridges act like miniature trampolines to broaden the sweet spot and protect ball speed on off-center strikes.

Finally, Tour Edge added a channel behind the leading edge to allow the lower portion of the hitting area to flex more efficiently on thin shots.

While the fairway wood-style Exotics E725 is designed to appeal to mid- and higher-handicap golfers, the Exotics C725 hybrids are iron-style clubs crafted for accomplished players who like to work the ball. They feature a more compact head size and shorter blade length.

Tour Edge Exotics C725 hybrid
The Exotics C725 hybrid has a moveable weight in the back to create a draw or fade bias. (Tour Edge)

The Exotics C725 hybrids were also designed with a stainless steel chassis and face, along with a carbon fiber crown, 360-Degree Ridgeback technology and 3D Diamond Face, but instead of having a fixed weight in the back of the head, the 10-gram weight can be adjusted into three positions–draw, neutral and fade–to allow accomplished players to shape shots more easily.

The Exotics C725 hybrids also have an eight-position adjustable hosel to increase or decrease the stated loft by up to 1.5 degrees, which is helpful for fitters who want to create precise distance gaps.

With a smaller head size and more squared shape, which low-handicap golfers tend to like, the CG location in the Exotics C725 is closer to the face, so it should produce a lower shot than the E725 hybrids, along with less spin and more ball speed.

Tour Edge names Tim Clarke new president

“To say we are excited about Tim joining our team would be an understatement.”

Tour Edge has announced that effective August 5, Tim Clarke, the former president of Wilson Golf, will become the brand’s new president, overseeing worldwide golf sales, strategic planning and operational performance for Tour Edge.

Dave Glod is the founder, chief club designer and majority owner of Tour Edge. He is giving up his position as president and taking on the role as chief executive officer.

In a statement, Glod said, “To say we are excited about Tim joining our team would be an understatement. We’re getting one of golf’s most respected and well-liked leaders and putting all his talents and focus into our sales and marketing efforts. This is a total coup for us to get Tim and it should have a huge impact for us moving forward.”

If Clarke’s face looks familiar, you might recognize him from the Golf Channel series, “Driver vs. Driver,which aired in 2016 and 2018.

Clarke started at Chicago-based Wilson in 1997, and after leaving in February 2023, he became the executive vice president of the golf division of Perry Ellis International. He managed the Original Penguin, Callaway (apparel), PGA TOUR, Nicklaus and Perry Ellis brands in the United States.

Clarke said, “I couldn’t be more excited to be joining the Tour Edge family and getting back to my roots in hard good sales and in the Chicagoland area.”

Tour Edge, which is based in Batavia, Illinois, a western suburb of Chicago, has positioned itself as a brand that tries to bring technology and value to golfers. It has found success in sponsoring Champions tour players like Bernhard Langer, Scott McCarron and Alex Cejka, and recently its television ads have featured former football and baseball star Bo Jackson.

Best affordable wedges for 2023

Update your short game without breaking the bank.

The importance of nice wedges in amateur golf flies under the radar a bit. Many weekend warriors complain about not getting enough spin around the greens, hopelessly watching their chip shots run 10, 20, or 30 feet beyond the hole.

To be honest, the bad result may not be your fault.

If your wedges are starting to get wear marks, or if they’re approaching 5, 6, or 7 years old, it’s time to get some new wedges in your bag.

And because they can be expensive — new releases can get close to $200 per club — we’ve searched the internet for the best deals you can find on wedges from brands like Cleveland, Callaway, TaylorMade and more.

Tour Edge Exotics Wingman wedges

Tour Edge’s new Exotics Wingman wedges have a high-toe design, offset and polymer inserts to soften the feel.

Gear: Tour Edge Exotics Wingman wedges
Price: $139.99 each with True Temper Dynamic Gold 115 Wedge shaft.
Specs: Forged stainless steel with polymer inserts and an adjustable weight. Even lofts from 50 degrees to 60 degrees in three sole grinds with five different bounce options
Available: Oct. 2

Who It’s For: Golfers who want a softer feel and more forgiveness on shots around the green.

The Skinny: Tour Edge designed a high-toe wedge with weight removed from the back flange, then added thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) to soften the feel.

The Deep Dive: Elite golfers rarely want to look down at their irons and see a significant amount of offset because the more offset an iron has, the more challenging it can be to curve the ball intentionally and shape shots. However, back in the day, wedges were designed with offset, and many golfers who were elite in the 1980s and ’90s still love to use wedges with offset because it can help them keep their hands in front of the leading edge and promote solid contact on chips. Bernhard Langer is among them, and he recently asked Tour Edge to make him some wedges that had extra offset. The company’s R&D team got to work and developed wedges that pleased the German Hall-of-Famer, and now those clubs, the Exotics Wingman wedges, are being released.

Tour Edge Exotics Wingman Wedge

Each Exotics Wingman wedge is forged for an enhanced feel and features a new Triple-Traction face design. After Tour Edge mills the main grooves into the high-toe-shaped hitting area, microgrooves are milled between each main groove to add surface roughness and increase friction. The combination of the high-toe and multi-groove pattern on the face is designed to allow golfers to get more spin on a wide variety of shots and increase their ability to be creative around the greens.

To further enhance the feel, Tour Edge removed some of the stainless steel in the heel and toe areas of the back of the heads and replaced it with a polymer called Vibrcor. The material soaks up excessive vibrations and softens the feel of impact.

Tour Edge Exotics Wingman Wedge
Adding TPU inserts to the back of the head and extra mass high in the toe softens feel and helps to create lower-flying approach shots. (Tour Edge)

Removing the steel on the bottom of the heads, and adding more material high in the toe area, pulls the center of gravity (CG) location up. Combined with the addition of the offset, Tour Edge feels that golfers should benefit from solid contact and a lower, more-controlled flight on approach shots and pitch shots.

Golfers will see an adjustable weight on the back of the Exotics Wingman wedges. It is not meant to be changed by players, but fitters can swap the standard 5-gram weight for other weights to adjust the club’s swing weight based on its length and golfer preferences.

Tour Edge Exotics Wingman Wedge

Finally, the Exotics Wingman wedges will be offered in three different sole grinds:

  • M/N Grind (Medium Turf/Neutral Path): Available in lofts from 50 to 60 degrees, this wedge grind is highly versatile and has 10 degrees of bounce.
  • F/S Grind (Firm Turf/Sweeping Path): Available as a sand wedge or lob wedge in lofts from 54 to 60 degrees, this low-bounce option (6-8 degrees) is designed to get the leading edge under the ball on tight lies.
  • S/D Grind (Soft Turf/Digging Path): Ideally suited to golfers who play in soft conditions or who have a steep angle of attack, this high-bounce option (12-14 degrees) should help players keep the club moving through impact in fluffy sand and thick rough.

Tour Edge Exotics E723, C723 woods, hybrids and irons

The newest Tour Edge woods and irons blend materials such as carbon fiber, tungsten and titanium to deliver more distance and forgiveness.

When Tour Edge releases new equipment in its Exotics family, the brand typically does it in pairs, partnering game-improvement woods and irons with related offerings designed for more accomplished golfers. With the new Exotics 723 Series, the Chicago-based company again has dropped two sets of drivers, fairway woods, hybrids and irons simultaneously, with the new Exotics E723 clubs (Extreme Spec) made for golfers who want more distance plus forgiveness and the Exotics C723 clubs (Competition Spec) for golfers who need lower-spinning gear that allows them to shape shots.

Below are the details on both the new E723 and the C723 woods and irons.
