Tour Edge Exotics EXS Fairway Wood

Wood Options & Stock Shafts

Players Distance Fairway Wood

The Exotics EXS is the driver that made a lot of golfers rethink what they were paying for. Tour Edge built it as a direct-to-consumer play, which meant no massive tour contracts baked into the price, and the result was a legitimately fast driver that cost a couple hundred less than the marquee names it competed with. In 2019 that value story was the headline, but the head holds up on its own merits.

The EXS pairs a titanium body with a carbon fiber crown, and the weight saved up top gets pushed low and back to raise launch and add stability. Two movable weights, a 10-gram and a 2-gram, sit in the sole and can be swapped between a forward and rear position to shift spin and ball flight. The adjustable hosel handles loft and lie changes on top of that. So you get real fitting range in a package aimed at players who want distance without giving up all their ability to shape a shot.

Where it lands is squarely in the players distance bucket. This is not a max-forgiveness bomber that fights every fade, and it is not a small tour head that punishes a miss. It sits in between, and for the golfer who has a repeatable swing but no interest in overpaying, that middle ground is exactly the point.

• You want tour-level distance and adjustability but refuse to pay flagship prices for it.
• Your swing is fairly repeatable and you value a workable, mid-forgiveness head over maximum draw bias.
• You like to tinker, since the movable weights plus the adjustable hosel give real range to dial in spin and flight.
• You are coming off an older driver and want a noticeable ball speed jump without going to a big-brand release.
• You are a mid handicapper who has outgrown a game-improvement driver but is not ready for a compact tour head.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Tour Edge Exotics EXS driver adjustable?

Yes. It has an adjustable hosel for changing loft and lie, plus two movable sole weights, a 10-gram and a 2-gram, that swap between a forward and a rear position. Forward lowers spin for a flatter flight, rear raises launch and adds stability.

What lofts does the EXS driver come in?

The 2019 EXS came in 9.5 and 10.5 degree heads, and the adjustable hosel lets you move off those stock numbers to fine-tune launch and face angle to your swing.

How does the Exotics EXS compare to the big-brand drivers from 2019?

The point of the EXS was to deliver comparable ball speed and adjustability for meaningfully less money. It gives up some of the ultra-forgiving footprint of the largest game-improvement heads, but on center and near-center hits it holds its own with the marquee drivers of that year.

Is the EXS a good driver for a mid handicapper?

It fits well for a mid handicapper with a fairly consistent swing. It is forgiving enough to help on mishits without being a full max-forgiveness head, so it rewards better contact while still keeping speed on off-center strikes.

What is the Diamond Face on the EXS?

It is Tour Edge's variable face thickness design, with a diamond pattern of thick and thin zones across the face. The idea is to hold ball speed on hits away from the center rather than losing distance the moment you miss the sweet spot.
