The exceptionally powerful Proto delivers absolutely blistering performance on all fronts: shot control, distance, and feel. Inspired by the desires of the world's best players, the Tour Proto utilizes the current Exotics platform of a combo-brazed 15-3-3-3 Beta Ti crown and a laser-bonded SP700 titanium face on a 6A4V body. The unique characteristic of the Proto is its heavier, tour-weighted head and 2° open face angle. Favored by the better player, the open face and heavier head weight deliver superior workability and feel.

Particular attention was lavished on visibly apparent bulge and roll to offer players a significant leap in performance. The driver's 10º of bulge and 10º of roll delivers the workability and feel needed for advanced shot-shaping control.

 The Exotics Tour Proto benefits from the commanding Aldila VS Proto graphite shaft. This exclusive, high-end shaft is a proven tour-winning favorite that speaks for itself. The shaft's next generation Micro Laminate Technology carbon nano-tube, combined with Aldila's proprietary A65 performance resin system, delivers unparalleled performance and feel.

The Proto hails the arrival of a whole new generation of professional level golf equipment perfected for the best players in the world!

PROTO HEAD CONSTRUCTION

An engineering wonder, the Exotics' paper-thin, ultra light, 15-gram crown is only 0.4mm thick. Constructed from 15-3-3-3 Beta Titanium, this formidable technology allows more weight to be placed in the sole for remarkable forgiveness and a perfect launch angle. The crown is attached through Exotics' revolutionary Combo-Brazing process. The elimination of welding results in a deeper, lower center of gravity (c.g.) for unprecedented performance and a smooth, velvety feel. Painstaking care was taken over the face technology. The uncompromising, forged titanium face puts out a staggering amount of power. Utilizing unheard of manufacturing tolerances, there is less than a 0.4mm opening between the face and body frame. This allows the face to be inserted and robotically laser bonded. Laser bonding eliminates weld material associated with traditional and plasma welding resulting in significantly improved rebound characteristics.

OPTIMAL C.G. ANGLE

Each Exotics driver features 2 precision-crafted, strategically positioned, 6-gram tungsten screws. The placement of the fixed screws strikes the perfect balance between forgiveness and power. The proper positioning of weight is crucial in creating the optimal c.g. angle. This angle creates a higher moment of inertia and a more potent energy transfer, especially on off-center hits.
