Put this driver on the sideline for the last 2 weeks because I wanted to see my consistent draw come back that I knew I could produce with the Epic. The EXS will be back in the bag Monday and hopefully I will be able to replicate it with the EXS after seeing it for 2 weeks.
It does like to fly straight which is never a bad thing. The problem for me lies when I leave it right. I cannot work the ball left to right which in most cases means I am going to be putting pressure on my short game. If I miss left off the tee, I can easily hook the ball with an iron.Scott, I have a draw tendency with a hook miss and the EXS took most of that away. I can still hook it with my all arms and no legs swings but it definitely wants to fly straight. This is a positive for me but I can see somebody who works the ball not getting along with this driver. I am two rounds in and this club and it has been a pleasant surprise.

Lot of golf on the docket for the weekend
Looking forward to trying a few different weight combinations and setting in this
I find it funny that they’re getting to a pricepoint on the driver $299 and they sprung for this fancy weight pouch for $62 shipped
For 3 weights shipped $62 is still $13 cheaper than 3 weights from Cobra shipped and you get a fancy pouch
Great write up Alex! More distance than the F9? Honestly, I am a little surprised by that from all I have read about the F9.
Okay - 18 holes with this one on Saturday from a 36 hole golf day.
There is a ton - a freaking TON to love about this driver - starting with the price = FREE I mean can’t beat that haha j/k thank you THP and Tour Edge for the March Madness contest and thank you freaking Auburn for almost getting there.
Seriously though, the $299 is a STEAL - putting this up against a Mizuno and Titleist TS2 and the F9
In no way did I feel the component/looks/feel were “cheap” “inferior” or sub par to any of those and the performance definitely was not less than either.
If you’re on budget, please consider this driver - with the Budget Golf Coupon you can own the driver and the weight kit for about just the cost of the Driver (haha advert right here)
Still need to get a Cobra Connect grip on it so I don’t have to manually adjust when I tee off with it.
Was okay distance wise in the times I had it out before with the D2 swing weight. Was getting great launch mid/mid high
Received the weight kit swapped out the 9 with the 11 gram weight in the heel - have it playing at 11.5* but just plus 1 not plus 1 Draw - the setting is a bit confusing but they give a great adjustment guide that provides the loft adjustments as well as the new lie angle

The sound isn’t like a cannon - more subdued but still definitely different than the F9 to me, specifically when the heavy weight is forward in the F9.
The Tensei shaft is a great stock shaft - A b/c I’m familiar with it lol and b it also is a playable shaft for my game. Gives me a good mid flight at least from the last 18 holes - good combo of carry and roll even in damp conditions
This is playing at the stock length 45.5”
Driver distance results from the round.
Dispersion - mind you this includes all of the shots I’ve hit with it also I think 1 or 2 drives that were an F9 PX Yellow shaft
My one block left from the weekend was a too strong grip
Stock flight is my swing Left to Right - I am able to work it Right left when I setup for it though
Best drive of the weekend cut the corner perfectly
I’m really torn on cutting this down to Tour Length but with the accuracy I’ve been having I don’t think I need too especially with the distance improvement over the F9 that I’ve been seeing
Hey, OldeDude, sounds like we are in the same area of NorCal. I missed the Expo at Haggin Oaks this year, but I did get to try this driver out earlier this week. I'm playing a stock 5 year old Taylormade R1, and this driver felt at least as easy to hit. Getting the fever after reading all these posts! I'm going to get a fitting next week, if the results are good I can see making this my "daily driver."
Found one on the bay for a really good deal and jumped on it based on reviews here. I purchased a 10.5 degree, 70 gm Stiff, which maybe a bit much shaft for me. Still hitting indoors now due to weather and family obligations, but seeing a decent mid ball flight. I really need to work to get one in the mid/high to high range, going to try to put the heavier weight in back to see if that helps out.
If not, the shop I frequent has the EXS driver in stock in both R flex and the 60 Stiff, I might try to trade this and a couple other clubs in.
Club really does look smashing, Tour Edge nailed this in the looks department with the blue accent. I can't pinpoint how to describe the sound yet. I wouldn't necessarily say loud, but I am now wearing hearing aids, and I am coming from a Ping G20, which in the loudness department is in a class by itself...
Also, all the photos I've seen do not do the headcover justice. I thought it was kind of ugly looking at it online, but in hand it's much nicer. Love the color scheme with the blue on the side and the sliver "racing stripes" on the back.
So I did a testing on the stock shaft and default swing weights. It seemed that it is d2/d3 even for the 50g version..I suspects that I am losing distance and can't dial in as well depending on the condition on my back because of it.
Hence I have spoken to my shaft builder. I am going to switch some of the weights to 6/3 setup. I have change the shaft to the evenflow max carry or the attas in sr to accommodate my swing style and weight. I hope I can gain even more distance afterm
Early results seems positive.
Side note: it seems a lot of the tour edge stock shafts are not weighted equally. For my 7i it was d3, the rest were d4 and even up to d6 shockingly. I am used to swinging c9 to d1.5. Hence I realise the importance of getting a good fitting or speaking to an experience shafter.

I am thinking of getting a new driver and I would to try this one before I purchase anything, but there isn't any place around here that sells Tour Edge driver's. There is a place about 30 minutes from here, but it is a private club and pretty exclusive as well so I doubt I can get in there to demo one. And I just can't justify ordering one without hitting it first.

I might just do that. I really do want v to try it out.I'd give the private club a call. I had my irons fit at a local private club despite not being a member, and they treated me wonderfully. The club made money on the equipment, plus they got an opportunity to show off to a potential member. I was so impressed with the experience that I'm considering joining. For the club, that's a win-win.
