Callaway Epic Flash Driver Review

Golfers have come to expect Callaway to create drivers and metal woods that look and feel great. The Epic Flash is no different. The new carbon crown weave and curved alignment aid help golfers ensure that their driver’s face is sitting perfectly square behind the golf ball. The standard Epic Flash provides a confidence-inspiring look in a package that even better players will love.

The new Flash Face is molded with ridges and valleys that help golfers maintain their optimal ball speeds across the club face. Jailbreak has been a part of the last two product release cycles and it is continued in the Epic Flash. Jailbreak revolutionized speed when it was introduced in the original Epic drivers in 2017 and this improved mold helps golfers get maximum speed when they strike the golf ball low and high in the club face.

During my fitting, I was most impressed with the exceptional ball speeds and forgiveness of this driver. My typical miss with the driver is low in the club face. Jailbreak has always impressed me with its’ ability to maintain my ball speeds when I don’t hit the driver perfectly in the middle. The Epic Flash is my favorite driver from Callaway that I have ever hit. It is the only driver that I have had in my hands that has given me pause to replace my current gamer. I was so impressed in fact, that I will be getting the Flash for my on-course testing to see if it can replace my G400 Max. If not for my comfort and familiarity with my G400, there is no doubt the Epic Flash would be going in my bag for this season.

I was fit into this club in the new Graphite Design Tour AD IZ shaft at 70 grams in the X-stiff version. This combination of driver and shaft is the best feeling driver I have ever hit. I even produced my longest driver ever on a simulator with a carry of 318 yards for a total distance of 342 yards. There is no doubt that the Epic Flash will be a flagship driver for 2019 and if you are in the market for a new weapon off the tee you should be testing Callaway’s new offering.

The Callaway Epic Flash driver is an impressive piece of golf equipment that delivers exceptional performance. According to the reviews, the key features that make this driver stand out are:

The new Flash Face technology, which was developed using Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, promotes significantly faster ball speeds, especially in the center region of the face. This translates to added distance off the tee, with one reviewer reporting hitting drives further down the fairway than ever before.

The Jailbreak technology, which stiffens the crown and sole, also contributes to the impressive ball speed and distance gains. Additionally, the new T2C Triaxial Carbon Crown material helps raise the MOI for exceptional forgiveness on off-center hits.

The adjustable perimeter weighting allows golfers to easily promote draws, fades, or a straighter ball flight, giving them more control over their tee shots.

Overall, reviewers were blown away by the sheer power and distance on offer from the Epic Flash driver, with one calling it an "out-and-out distance machine." The combination of advanced technologies and impressive performance make this driver a standout option for golfers looking to maximize their tee shots.
