Tour Edge Exotics launches CB PROs Forged Wedges
Tour Edge Exotics has announced the release of its first forged wedges, the CB PROs.
The wedges are forged from 1025 carbon steel, and have what the company calls “Mongo Grooves,” which are layered with 28 micro grooves to give them the maximum legal amount of sharpness for increased spin and control.
Their custom sole grinds, designed by Tour Edge President and Chief Designer David Glod, have relieved toe and heel areas that give golfers more versatility to hit open- and closed-face shots.
The wedges are available in lofts of 50, 52, 54, 56, 58 and 60 degrees, and come stock with True Temper’s Dynamic Gold Wedge shafts for $99. Golfers who prefer graphite shafts can opt for the company’s Fujikura Fuel wedge shafts for $109.

Since our founding in 2005, the bedrock of GolfWRX.com has been the community of passionate and knowledgeable golfers in our forums, and we put endless trust in the opinions of our GolfWRX members — the most knowledgeable community of golfers on the internet. No other group of golfers in the world tests golf clubs as frequently or as extensively, nor is armed with such in-depth information about the latest technology.
Below are the results of GolfWRX member voting for the 2025 best driver, along with the vote percentage for each club.
Best driver of 2025: The top 5
5. Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond: 6.02%
Callaway’s pitch: “For golfers looking for a fast, forgiving, yet workable driver, the Elyte Triple Diamond features a tour-inspired shape and is the preferred model by most Callaway tour players.”
You can read what other golfers are saying about the driver in the GolfWRX forums, and see our launch piece here. Shop the Callaway Elyte Triple Diamond here.
4. Ping G440 Max: 6.86%
Ping’s pitch: “The most forgiving G440 model, MAX has a hotter face to generate speed and distance, and a lighter overall system weight with a longer shaft (46″) for faster clubhead speed, higher launch and longer carries. The Free Hosel and Carbonfly Wrap crown save weight to create our lowest CG ever and increase forgiveness while contributing to a more muted, pleasing sound.”

3. Ping G440 LST: 9.53%
Ping’s pitch: “LST is an especially good fit for faster swings, offering less spin and more control with a penetrating trajectory. A hotter face, lighter overall system weight and longer shaft (46″) deliver more speed and distance while maintaining tight dispersion.”
@phizzy30: “Not a fan of Ping drivers in general, but 440 LST takes the cake. It’s super forgiving across the face for a low spin head, looks and sounds good and the ability to make it play neutral or slightly fade biased through the hosel settings is very appealing.”

2. Titleist GT3: 16.55%
Titleist’s pitch: “The GT3 Driver offers Titleist’s boldest combination of power and personalization through adjustable performance. Dial in the CG Track to your frequent contact location to make your biggest drives even bigger while taking total control over flight and shaping.”
@mrmikeac: “I’ve been Anti-Titleist for years and years and years (outside of Vokey, of course). With that being said, HOLY BEGEEZUS the GT3 driver is an absolute NUCLEAR MONSTER! This thing blew my G430 10K Max out of the water in every single category. Forgiveness is the biggest thing that stands out of me, the 3 model has always been one of the less forgiving models in the past but this GT3 can take bad shot after bad shot and still end up in the fairway, I think a ton of that has to do with the adjustability, it’s actually effective. Feel and sound is perfect, that solid crack is so addicting to hear and when you hit it out the screws this thing can absolutely bomb it. Titleist, I’m sorry for doubting you. You have converted me.”

1. Titleist GT2: 22.91%
Titleist’s pitch: “Delivering impressive distance from any impact point, the Titleist GT2 Driver extracts maximum performance through a forgiving design. Get the stability and added confidence of a high-MOI driver without sacrificing speed.”
@DTorres: “The Titleist GT2 has proven to be the best driver of the year. Packaged in a classic profile, GT2 perfectly balances performance and forgiveness while consistently being a high performer across all categories.”

I am a uk based club builder and Tour Edge stockist, love my Scor wedges but they aren’t the spiniest , I am building one of these with a Nippon wedge shaft to see if I can get some spin from 60y and under where the Scor don’t spin. The high bounce is something to do with the width of the sole so don’t discount them based on that, I will grind the sole if the bounce is too high.

Looks like a decent wedge for a player who hits down on the ball. If you are more of a sweeper though, you may want to look for something with less bounce.

That actually looks pretty nice. I would try one.

Tour Edge makes fairway woods that are as good as it gets. Conversely, I have yet to try anything else in their product line that is anywhere near as good as other companies so these wedges will need to be scrutinized at our demo day next weekend.

Holy bounce, Batman!

That’s a lot of bounce, would want 8* options.
Forged and microgrooves? The laser milled clevelands lost their “microgrooves” within 20 rounds, I wonder if these grooves/face milling will last longer.

Sounds great. Would really like to give these a shot up against my Scratch and Mizuno wedges. Love their putters, but the price for those is a bit of a turn off. $99 for a forged wedge, that is very competitive.

$99 for a forged wedge? Is that correct? That’s gotta be a mistake
Tim
Apr 24, 2014 at 2:09 pm
That cost is correct. When you look at their website it shows $99 for steel and $109.99 for graphite.
