Tour Edge Hollow Body Exotics CBX Iron-Wood Set

By Leonard Finkel

Tour Edge, a leader and innovator in hollow iron technology, launched the first complete iron-wood set designed specifically for the sophisticated golfer. The Exotics CBX iS (iron-wood set) is a revolutionary set that consists of all iron-woods; a hollow-body design combined with a traditional forged iron look and feel for golfers seeking next-level performance.

The idea is to produce the distance and forgiveness of a metal wood combined with the feel and control of a forged iron set with progressive offsets to match from club to club. The combination of L-cup technology and powerful steel material increases face bending at impact to act more like a metal wood, producing higher ball speeds.

Exotics CBX Iron-Woods feature an extremely high MOI and a deeper CG due to its wider sole and a slightly heavier overall feel compared to other hollow irons on the market, offering forgiveness and faster launch characteristics due to expanded perimeter weighting.

“We were a little ahead of our time with our first hollow-body iron design,” said Tour Edge President and Master Club Designer David Glod. “But now we feel we have constructed the best of what’s out there in the hollow iron market with a driving iron-like club that sets up like a blade and delivers power like a metalwood. The biggest difference over designs of the past is that you can control this club very easily. That is why we are launching it in a complete iron set from 2-A wedge and why you are seeing it in play, and now winning on the PGA Tours.”

The Exotics CBX Iron-Wood has been in play by six players on the PGA Tours so far this season as more and more professionals are looking at hollow-body designs as an option to replace traditional long irons. It was recently reported in the bag of the winner of the United Leasing & Finance Championship winner on the Web.com Tour.

“The Exotics CBX Iron-Wood on its own is a club that has already been put into play on the PGA TOUR, the Web.com Tour and the PGA Tour Champions without having any one on contract to do so,” said Glod. “It is a club the best players in the world have sought out and have won with. The feedback came in almost immediately after we launched the Exotics CBX Iron-Wood in 2-5 irons that there was a demand for this iron-wood in a full set.”

The sole keeps weight away from the face for a lower center of gravity and higher launch-lower spin characteristic, so even with lower lofts, Exotics CBX Iron-Woods are producing higher initial launch angles, delivering a unique high-launch, high ball speed, low-spin trajectory. The wider sole design makes it easier to glide through the turf.

The release of the CBX Iron-Wood as a complete set will mostly be centered on the Sterling Silver finish version. Only 30 sets of the Black Pearl are being offered as a full set, making it one of the most limited first runs in Exotics history.
