About Exotics CBX
Exotics CBX are the only metal woods ever designed to feature a Titanium face, stainless steel body and carbon fiber sole. The Exotics CBX hybrid’s higher CG is located slightly forward in the club head through the use of a carbon fiber in the sole, which is significantly lighter than stainless steel. This helps to increase ball speed and reduce spin, which makes for less dispersion. Tour Edge’s extremely thin Beta-titanium cup-face enlarges the ideal hitting area on the clubs.

It is brazed to stainless steel behind the hitting area which allows the face to flex more at impact, while the Speed Ramp sole design provides reduced turf interaction so the club can maintain its speed through the hitting area.
World-renowned golf website My Golf Spy recently named the Exotics CBX its “Most Wanted Fairway Wood of 2018”. In what is being described by the popular site as the most comprehensive and unbiased independent fairway wood test conducted in the world, My Golf Spy tested 24 different fairway woods over a hundred hours with almost 5,000 shots used to collect over 200,000 data points in order to name Exotics CBX the best fairway wood of 2018.
The Tour Edge Exotics CBX fairway woods, Exotics CBX hybrids and Exotics CBX Iron-Woods are currently available at select authorized Tour Edge retailers.
