Information About the Tour Edge Proto Golf Driver
The Edge Proto Golf Driver is one of the most advanced as well as one of the most expensive drivers you can find. Despite the driver's fairly hefty price tag--around $500--serious golfers are willing to pay for it because it utilizes the latest technology to create a driver that can help you improve your game.

Features

The Edge Proto driver is a popular driver thanks to its elements and construction. The club's manufacturers used three different types of titanium when developing the club--including a 15-3-3-3 beta titanium crown as well as a SP700 titanium face. The body is 6A4V titanium. Because all three types of titanium were used, this driver is very strong, resistant to corrosion and light.

Technology

The crown of the driver was developed with a great deal of research. The light and thin crown is only 0.4 mm and is the lightest crown on the market. Because the club is formed using chemical bonding, there is no welding needed. Thanks to this, the driver has a lower center of gravity and is able to facilitate longer drives.

Benefits

Experienced golfers may be more prone to appreciate these drivers than those who have little experience. The 10- x 10-inch bulge and roll on the club face gives advanced golfers a better feel for being able to manage their shots with exactness.

Design

Two fixed tungsten screws are located in a precise spot of the club head to promote the highest moment of inertia (MOI) possible when the driver strikes the ball. The higher the MOI, the more likely you are able to hit the ball long and straight because higher MOIs are better at resisting the twisting of the club.

Customizations

These golf clubs are available in righthand only, however there are other kinds of customizations you can request. For example, the grip, shaft, shaft length and shaft flex all can be adjusted when the driver is ordered. There is also a woman's version of the club.
