“We’re excited to partner with MST Golf in Malaysia where demand for TPT Golf shafts has been incredibly high,” says TPT Golf Director Sebastian Sebayang. “Each time we enter a new market, we strive to ensure we’re partnering with a company that shares our vision of offering golfers not only the best experience and technology currently available, but also the highest level of fitting expertise. With MST Golf, we’ve found a perfect fit.”

Since launching its innovative line of golf shafts less than two years ago, TPT Golf has already achieved 10 professional wins across the globe, earning the Switzerland-based company the reputation of “The Hottest New Shaft on Tour.” The company’s impressive resume currently boasts wins on seven professional tours, including the PGA Tour, European Tour, Champions Tour, Asian Tour, LPGA of Korea, LPGA of Japan, and a World Golf Championship.

“We are excited to be in partnership with TPT Golf, which is gaining popularity among serious golfers and tour players alike,” says Ng Yap, CEO of MST Golf. “We have witnessed the increase in performance, as well as the improved launch monitor numbers when fitted correctly.

TPT Golf creates its driver and fairway wood golf shafts differently than any other golf shaft company. The company’s patent-pending, automated golf shaft manufacturing technology — the Thin-Ply Winding Method — is a pioneering process that allows TPT Golf to position its carbon fiber prepreg in the exact locations and orientations necessary to create the optimal performance for golfers of all abilities. It also removes the inconsistencies present in conventional graphite shafts such as “spines” and “seams” that have been plaguing golfers for decades.

When a TPT Golf shaft is properly fit, its more axially consistent design results in more consistent impacts. The combination of more consistent impacts and TPT Golf’s optimized bending profiles are what result in significant distance gains, as well as straighter and more consistent drives.

TPT Golf shafts are sold exclusively through its network of Authorized Fitters, which currently includes more than 200 elite fitters located across the world. Golfers can visit https://tptgolf.com/where-to-buy/ to locate a TPT Golf Authorized Fitter near them.

Tour Edge to Launch Exotics EXS Fairway Metal Featuring Flight Tuning System Technology

Posted on by Until The Next Tee

Tour Edge Golf is one of two companies who are really doing it right. The Batavia, Illinois based golf company has re-examined their business model and changing things up just a little bit. How? Well, firstly they are getting a little more aggressive in their marketing. They’ve not only taken out ads on Golf Channel but they’ve also been featured on the “Morning Drive”. Tour Edge golf have been introducing a lot of golf technology in equipment at an extremely fair price point.

If there is an entire product range that I’m curious about it’s their new EXS line-up. In earlier press releases that I’ve shared I’ve talked about their new EXS iron set and their EXS driver. Both feature premium components (shafts) and an ultra-competitive price point. The EXS driver has a suggested retail price of $299. A rarity in today’s golf industry.

The EXS has a little sibling in the EXS fairway metal which deserves a mention in its own right. A premium shaft, Variable Face Thickness that increases the sweet spot and adjustable weights are some of the highlights of this new fairway metal. All of this tech can be yours for $229.99.

There’s a lot to like about this club if going by the marketing material but putting it to the test is another situation altogether. I’ve had luck with Exotics fairway Metals in the past (XCG6). Hitting this off of the tee would be fun but I would love to swing this club off of the deck. The weight towards the trailing edge would lead me to believe that it would be easy to strike off of the deck. Especially if that’s where the heaviest weight is (Tour Edge Golf’s Flight Tuning System). It’s all about playability and hitting Par 5’s in two.

For more information please see the press release below.

EXSfairway-664x1024

Tour Edge, Golf’s Most Solid Investment, officially introduces the Exotics EXS fairway metal, featuring a myriad of game-enhancing innovations that has led Tour Edge to market the EXS line with the tagline Pound for Pound, Nothing Else Comes Close.

 

The loaded-with-technology fairway metals feature a Flight Tuning System (FTS) that includes 11-gram and 3-gram interchangeable weights, Cup Face Technology with Variable Face Thickness (VFT Technology) for an expanded sweet spot, multi-material usage of Carbon Fiber for ideal weight distribution and a new and improved SlipStream™ Sole for faster clubhead speed through the turf.

 

The new ultra-premium, high-performance fairway woods will be available worldwide on November 1, 2018.

 

“The EXS fairway metal is a beautiful and traditional pear shape that we’ve been able to combine with five different integrated technologies,” said Tour Edge President and Master Club Designer David Glod. “Exotics fairways have always been known for its superior performance characteristics and the EXS is no different. In fact, in the independent tests we’ve conducted, it’s going to provide a ton of distance gainand less dispersion to a wider variety of skill levels than ever before.”

The FTS™ Technology allows adjustable sole weights to be moved to two alternate settings; an 11-gram weight in the heel, 3-gram weight in the rear for lower spin, slice-reducing shape and a medium launch and then the 3-gram weight in the heel and 11-gram weight in the rear for medium spin, neutral shape and a higher launch. Additional weight screws can be purchased as a kit that includes 6-gram, 9-gram and 14-gram weights.

 

The EXS fairway metal head features premium exotic metals; a brand new United States manufactured, high-density Carpenter steel. The hyper-strength strength steel is quench-hardened, a special heating technique that takes 750 degrees to provide an extreme amount of strength while allowing for a thinner face. This cup face design allowed for Tour Edge to make the face thinner than in any previous model for a greater energy transfer. The high performance hexagonal Variable Face Thickness (VFT) offers multiple levels of thickness that maximize forgiveness from more points on the face, especially in the heel and toe areas.

 

The aerodynamics in the EXS fairway wood are greatly enhanced by new and improved wider SlipStream speed channels on the sole that create a faster clubhead speed due to smoother turf interaction. The CG location of the EXS is positioned closer to the face for less spin, creating a trajectory that fights wind and increases roll.

 

An ultra-premium Tensei CK Blue 2G shaft series by Mitsubishi Chemical is the chosen stock shaft for the EXS fairway metal. Extremely light yet extremely stable throughout, the Tensei Blue CK features advanced materials like Carbon Fiber and Kevlar mixed with other lightweight materials that weigh in the 50-70 gram range depending on flex. A 50-gram weight will be available in Ladies, A-flex andRegular, a 60-gram shaft available in Regular, Stiff and X-flex and a 70-gram shaft available in Stiff and X-flex.

 

The Exotics EXS fairway metals are available in five different lofts; 13, 15 and 17 degree 3-woods, an 18 degree 5-wood and a 21 degree 7-wood. The 15 degree 3-wood is available in left handed.

 

The suggested retail price for the Exotics EXS fairway metal is $229.99.

 

Every Tour Edge club comes with a lifetime warranty and a 30-day play guarantee. For more information, call (800) 515-3343 or visit touredge.com.

CLEVELAND GOLF INTRODUCES THE NEW HUNTINGTON BEACH SOFT PUTTERS

Posted on by Until The Next Tee

A putter designed for any golfer. Whether you have a preference for a blade or a mallet the new Huntington Beach SOFT line-up From Cleveland Golf has a putter for you. Speed Optimized Face Technology (SOFT) means that no matter where on the putter face you strike your putt… you will see more consistency when it comes to pace and distance control of your putts. Factor in personalization and an attractive price point ($129.99 MAP) this offering from Cleveland Golf could really help your putting woes.

Thanks to Noelle Zavaleta for sharing this press release. Ms. Zavaleta is the Marketing and Communications Manager for Cleveland Golf. Please see the press release for more details.

 

HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA – Nov. 2, 2018 – Cleveland Golf® is proud to announce the new Huntington Beach SOFT putters, where science and artistry come together for your best putting performance. Get the distance control, soft feel and confidence to sink more putts with the new Huntington Beach SOFT, which officially launches on Friday, Nov. 16, 2018.

 

“Cleveland Golf putters have always been a great value, but the Huntington Beach SOFT Putter, featuring a speed optimized face and premium finish, takes it to a new level,” said Jeff Brunski, Vice President of Research and Development.

The hallmark of the new Huntington Beach SOFT putters is Cleveland Golf’s proprietary Speed Optimized Face Technology (SOFT). SOFT helps normalize ball speed across the face of the putter, meaning, no matter where you strike your putt, you get consistent speed and consistent distance.

 

A unique aspect of these Huntington Beach SOFT putters is a custom face-milling pattern for every head shape. Rather than relying on the same face pattern on every putter shape, Huntington Beach SOFT utilizes a gradual face-milling pattern on higher MOI models, while using a more rapid milling variation on lower MOI models.

 

“The Huntington Beach SOFT putter’s speed optimized face is one of the most advanced technologies available to improve putting performance,” Brunski said. “You’ll make more putts – plain and simple. The fact we’re delivering it at such an aggressive price point makes this one of the best values in the market.”

 

Cleveland Golf’s Huntington Beach SOFT putters feature a coarse, diamond-shaped milling pattern to soften the feel at impact while increasing friction for a more consistent roll. Each one is crafted from soft 304 Stainless Steel, delivering a better feel and more confidence on the green.

  • Diamond CNC Milling Pattern: Deep grooves provide soft feel with a true roll that starts on-line.
  • Optimized Center of Gravity Location: Strategic weight redistribution provides solid feel and stability for straighter putts.
