Verdict

The Tour Edge Exotics C725 and the Tour Edge Exotics Max are built for different golfers. The C725 is a players distance iron with a stock set that runs from the 4-iron to the AW. The Exotics Max is a game improvement iron, so expect a larger head and more forgiveness, and its data starts at the 5-iron. The Max is also the only one of the two tagged with a hollow body, variable face thickness and stronger lofts. Its 7-iron sits at 27.5° against 28.5° on the C725, a 1 degree gap worth roughly 2 yards of carry at the same swing speed, so check your wedge gapping. On price, the Max lists at $799 and the C725 at $949, a $150 difference.

If you want the easiest launch and the most help on mishits, the Exotics Max is the better fit, and it costs less. If you strike the ball consistently, want a longer set that starts at the 4-iron and prefer the look of a players distance head, the Exotics C725 earns its higher price. For most mid to high handicap golfers, the Exotics Max is the recommendation. For a lower handicap golfer who values feel and a compact profile over forgiveness, choose the C725.
