The NEW Tour Edge Golf E-series 525 Driver.
Batavia IL. based Tour Edge Golf has released today it’s newest line of clubs for the 2025 golf season.
Tour Edge see’s it’s new E525 series of clubs as a groundbreaking line-that will serve as game improvement clubs. For golfers seeking more distance, but also more forgiveness.
But availability in retail stores is still just over 10 days out, with March 1st as the first day E525 will be on the shelfs.
Tour Edge says the 525 Series brings another new level of performance, for golfers needing more distance, forgiveness and a ease of play. 525 brings two ranges into play-the X-range and the E-range.

Breaking the two ranges down-X-range is a Super Game Improvement set of clubs, with an anti-slice offset designs and extremely low CG positions, that include a ultra-shallow face that helps with an easy launch. E-range are Premium Game-Improvement clubs inspired by the Tour Edge Exotics technology, which offer class-leading MOI and enhanced forgiveness, power and accuracy.
“This marks a new era for Hot Launch, with our best-feeling and best-looking performance-enhancement clubs we’ve ever produced,” says David Glod, Founder and CEO of Tour Edge Golf. “The X-range offers golfers a new ‘X-factor’ to boost their game with cutting-edge SGI innovations. But the E-range is the highest-level of GI with a perfect balance of distance and forgiveness in more traditional shapes.”
CUSTOM FITTING will continue at over 1,500 fitting locations. But when you have need for speed, Tour Edge still offers 48-hour expedited shipping programs for custom orders in the United States. “Getting custom fit for both the GI and SGI golf clubs makes perfect sense in today’s game,” said Glod.
