Golfshake equipment expert and pga professional ryan rastall tested the new callaway epic flash hybrid which callaway say brings together several of the man.
Epic hybrid review.
Thankfully the epic hybrid has those too.
In both drivers and fairway woods reviews here callaway s epic flash line has been one of the most dominant of 2019.
But once in play it soon becomes much less of an issue.
The epic flash feels and sounds a little more like a wood than a hybrid.
If you add the higher speeds to that flight you get a good bit of distance.
This club launched the ball consistently even on thin shots.
It isn t grossly oversized and its heft suits its purpose.
Callaway epic flash hybrid reviews usually mention its size because it is noticeable.
Epic is the first hybrid to incorporate our revolutionary triaxial carbon crown and we ve gone beyond the boundaries of time material and performance to deliver a higher level of distance control and versatility.
I was even more impressed with the spin.
In other words getting lumped with a partner who doesn t contribute much and you having to take on a big workload.
The performance from the epic hybrid was really solid with a lovely sound and feel and consistent performance from the fairway tee and longer grass so this is really an all round hybrid.
There s more of a thud than the traditional high pitched clink of a hybrid and this actually suits the shape of the head as it does feel a little more like hitting a 5 wood with a deader feel as the ball leaves the face.
The epic flash hybrid has a rising flight and some extra spin to hold the ball in the air better.
Now new for the fall the hybrid is making its way to the course.
The flight seemed more mid than high relative to other hybrids but the usual callaway optifit hosel allows you to change any of the four lofts down 1 or up 1 or 2 in standard or draw settings.
Many modern hybrids take low spin too far but the epic hits a sweet spot that allows for long carry and the ability to hold greens.
At address it just looks like you are about to belt one out there and that is always a good swing thought.
