Tour Edge Unveils Hot Launch Max Drivers, Fairways, and Hybrids to Help Game-Improvement Golfers Break Through in the Long Game
BATAVIA, IL (Feb 10, 2026) – Tour Edge Golf today introduced the Hot Launch Max and Max D drivers, fairway metals, and hybrids, engineered to help game-improvement golfers break through to better long-game performance with higher launch, increased distance, and built-in forgiveness.
The Hot Launch Max metalwoods focus on making long shots easier and more consistent. Strategic weight distribution, flexible face technology, and ultra-light shaft options work together to promote faster swing speeds, higher launch, and improved stability on off-center strikes.
“Game-improvement golfers deserve uncompromising performance and quality as part of their path to improvement, and Hot Launch Max delivers,” said David Glod, Founder and CEO of Tour Edge. ““The long game is where golfers lose the most confidence when the ball isn’t staying in play. Hot Launch Max metalwoods are designed to bring stability and predictability back to those shots, so golfers can swing freely and trust the result.”
While the Max line is engineered for golfers seeking distance and accuracy in a more traditional setup, the Max D metalwood designs feature draw-biased weighting and offset technology to help square the clubface at impact, promoting a straighter, more controlled ball flight.
“Not every golfer wants to manipulate ball flight or chase ultra-low spin,” added Glod. “Hot Launch Max is for players who want simple, repeatable launch and performance that makes the game more enjoyable from the tee through the fairway.”
The Hot Launch Max drivers, fairway metals, and hybrids are available for pre-order starting today and will be available at retail worldwide on February 27. Golfers can get custom fit at preferred Tour Edge dealers and take advantage of 48-hour expedited shipping on custom orders within the continental United States.
Hot Launch Max and Max D Metals: Break Through to a Better Long Game
The Hot Launch Max and Max D drivers, fairways, and hybrids share a suite of technologies designed to maximize forgiveness and distance. Each club features a strategically positioned rear weight that moves mass to the back perimeter of the clubhead, increasing MOI for greater stability on off-center strikes. A newly engineered V-Taper Sole further enhances forgiveness and launch by tapering toward the rear perimeter, shifting weight outward. Completing the technology package is Diamond Face VFT which precisely optimizes face deflection and energy transfer to deliver consistently explosive ball speeds across the face.
High-Performance Shaft Options
Each club in the Hot Launch Max Series is equipped with an ultra-light ALDILA Ascent graphite shaft, engineered to increase clubhead speed while maintaining stability and feel. Shaft weights range from 45–55 grams in the metals, promoting faster swing speeds and added distance.
