Tour Edge Exotics XCG
For starters, the cup-shaped titanium face and magnesium crown is combo-bonded
to a stainless steel body. This bonding process, or channel-locking
mechanism, requires less weight than typical welding or glue. The
light magnesium crown —half the mass of titanium — saves
additional grams, which are ultimately redistributed to the
sole. Magnesium also serves as a vibration dampener,
which helps contribute to a pleasing sound. The XCG
face varies in thickness, which works to boost COR
across more of it.
