Of course he was telling me all about the tremendous virtues of the E10. I doubt it's worth twice the price. I've found the E9 at 139 new.

I do launch it higher and it goes just as far as my 3 wood which is what I was looking for so it will make its way into my bag. I need to go take a lesson and am hopeful that will straighten things out. Unfortunately I have to wait a few weeks because of work and stuff associated with my daughter's illness.

The Bogey Master 30 Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 I have an adams tight lies2 3 wood in my bag and I find it very easy to hit off the deck as the head is thinner than most 3 woods on the market. I picked it up for 25$ at golf town last year. Adams got bought out by taylormade (I think) so you might want to look for a second hand model. If not, I'm also very interested in the cobra 3 wood model with the rails on the base, I think it's the f7? I've heard they make it easy to hit off the deck and out of a tough lie. I'd defiantly try one of those out too. Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuskerHacker 42 Posted June 13, 2017 Author Share Posted June 13, 2017 Okay y'all, here's my update on my tour edge. I finally got a chance to get it on a range and put in some work. So far I'm extremely impressed. Face feels hot and I love the feel, sound, and look. Club launches really well. I'd never heard of a Kuro Kage blue before this club, but I'm really liking the shaft. Stable but not boardy to my feel. All in all the club responds well when I put a good move in and not awful when I miss. It'll stay in the bag for now until it makes me mad!

revkev 25,369 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 It's interesting - the sound of this the feel are taking some getting used to for me. My four wood is clearly going to work out though.

I very rarely hit three wood off the tee. I never felt confident with it. This club could change that though. I ended up with 16.5 loft.

And I do mean ANY lie!! When I was fit they took out on the grass driving range and put the ball in a massive divot. Hit out of it with no issues. Since then I've even hit it out sand which for how steep my swing is I find unbelievable. And if you like their drivers right now the deal is buy a driver and get a free fairway wood or hybrid. If Callaway wasn't amazing with customer service and send me a free epic I would've gotten the f7+ And free hybrid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've read really really good things about them but I don't think they make them any longer. Haven't played one in a long time. I still have a royal collection (related to sonartec) in my extra club bag. They are great clubs and can be found fairly inexpensively. I now prefer the tour edge exotics line of clubs. I think they provide the best and most underrated fairway wood on the market. 1 Quote Driver: G400 Max 9* w/ KBS Tour Driven Fairway: TS3 15* set to 16.5* w/Project X Hzardous Smoke Hybrids: 816H1 19* set at 18* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype 915H 21* w/KBS Tour Graphite Hybrid Prototype Irons: TR20V 5-11 w/Vizard TR20-85 Graphite Wedge: 54-10S 588 58-12 Putter: Auditions ongoing Backups: 6330, TM-180, Milled Collection RSX 2, Bellum Winmore 787, mFGP2, Directed Force 2.1 Member: MGS Hitsquad since 2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brjpool 199 Posted June 17, 2017 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Thanks for the replies everyone. Hopefully there will be some more people chime in. I should probably add I've also looked at the ping g25 4 wood. Ping is solid for fairways wood and hybrids.
