First the Exotics CBX fairway wood and hybrid win on the PGA Tour Champions to start the 2018 season in February. Now the hollow-body Exotics CBX Iron-Wood has joined the party with a victory in the bag of the United Leasing & Finance Championship winner on the Web.com Tour.
After finishing the United Leasing & Finance Championship with a 6-under par 282, the Order of Merit winner on last year’s PGA TOUR Latinoamérica lined up his first title on the Web.com Tour Sunday at Victoria National Golf Club Newburgh, Indiana.
The win earned the player $108,000, catapulting him up 20 spots to the #3 ranking on the official 2018 Web.com Tour money list.
The player spent 2017 playing on PGA TOUR Latinoamérica, where he recorded nine Top 25 finishes in 13 events, including two victories.
The Exotics CBX Iron-Wood has been in play since November when he first put it into play on the PGA TOUR at the OHL Classic at Mayakoba.
Since then, the native of Mexico has found his groove on the Web.com Tour, having already earned three Top 10 finishes and five Top 25 finishes this season.
The Exotics CBX Iron-Wood has also been in play on the PGA TOUR and PGA Tour Champions so far this season as more and more professionals are looking at hollow-body designs as an option to replace traditional long irons.
The hollow construction, unique Japanese high-strength steel and thin L-cup face design aim to improve distance and forgiveness of the Exotics CBX Iron-Wood over other hollow body designs on the market. Delivering powerful distance with minimal spin, the CBX takes aim at players who want hybrid performance combined with the feel and workability of a traditional forged iron design.
Tour Edge President and Master Club Designer David Glod truly revolutionized the golf world when he first introduced a hollow-body iron design and trademarked the Iron-Wood name over a decade ago.
“We may have been a little ahead of our time with the hollow-body iron design,” said Glod. “But now we feel we have constructed the best of what’s available 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 will launch 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 Exotic CBX line of fairway woods, hybrids and iron-woods have now had 98 different clubs in play in 24 different events on the PGA TOUR, PGA Champions Tour and Web.com Tour in 2018. This has led to a combined two victories, 10 Top 5 finishes, 21 Top 10 finishes and 40 Top 25 finishes.
