Women & Golf Review: Callway Epic Flash Driver

Callaway’s Epic Flash Driver promises new flash face technology to promote faster ball speeds and weight for a straight flight. Here is what Carly Frost thought when she put it through its paces.

THEY SAY

The Epic Flash driver employs a new Flash Face Technology to help golfers get more ball speed in the centre of the face for more distance. Internal Jailbreak bars stiffen and stabilise the crown and sole placing more load on the face to promote faster ball speeds. We’ve also used a new carbon crown material, the weight it saves is redistributed within the head to raise MOI for forgiveness on off-centre hits. A sliding 16-gram perimeter weight allows you to easily switch between a setting that promotes draws, fades or a straight flight.

I SAY

Flash by name, flash by nature- this driver really has the ‘wow’ factor. The big black shiny clubhead has a huge footprint behind the ball, making it look impossible to miss and very easy to aim. I love the large centre circle on the face grooves, it makes a great target to hit. The ball springs off the face with impressive speed and a fiery sound. The swing weight is light, making it effortless to swing, increasing speed and launching the ball high. The sliding weight is easy to alter and genuinely makes a difference to the ball flight, ideal for counter-acting your shot-shape tendencies.
