I have an Exotics 4 wood. I hit it as far as any of my 3 woods.

Brian's Tour Edge Exotics three-wood is the 13 degree model (versus the standard loft of 15 degrees). Provided you've got a swing good enough to launch the ball sufficiently, the lower loft provides greater distance.
However, that's only part of the story. I'm told that most Tour Edge Exotics are built to sit about two degrees "open" (versus about the same amount "closed" for the normal club). This has the effect of reducing loft (just as bending the face closed increases it). This is counter-intuitive; you would think it would work the other way around.
So, one of the reasons the Tour Edge fairway wood is longer is because it is carrying less effective loft. Then, when you combine that phenomenon with the lower-loft 13-degree model, you can see that BG's weapon of choice is practically a driver.
