Rick and Rob. I really like your testing approach; Rob’s current gamer vs tested club. I feel you might want to get Rob to hit more than 3 balls (realise he’s testing multiple clubs at once so he could get a little tired). My reason for saying this is an average of 3 shots is not much of an “average”. For instance, ball speed for XR was fine except for the 3rd shot which appears to be a poor one, his best drive with epic had significantly different launch characteristics that the epic average. Anyhow, keep up the great work.
When your on the monitors how do you know when your hitting the ball what actual target is?
cn u do p770 with rob
253 yds? lol
Just the review I was looking forward to. Thanks.
This thing is overpriced Chinese made garbage.
Rick, can you compare the new m2 driver and the m2 D TYPE? I would love to see if this so called Draw driver is much difference. There isn’t much on youtube about the D TYPE and Taylor made are not promoting it as much and I wonder why?
I tested a Callaway Epic Demo @ the course yesterday. Actual playing conditions. Regular shaft, neutral setting @ 10.5 degree. My swing speed is around 85-90. I did hit it pretty well, not any longer than my Cobra Amp Cell pro. Has a weird feel coming off the face at contact, you never feel you hit it solid. Sounds hollow…… I checked and I was hitting it right in the middle of the face. Personally, I wouldn’t pay $500 dollars for it, absolutely no way. My Cobra cost $149 new and hitting maybe one more fairway a round isn’t worth $500 dollars.
I just purchased this driver and kept the same shaft out of my GBB (previous model) black Kuro Kage stiff as it gave me good numbers on the simulator. I have just taken it out on course and I’m easily 10-20m further. My side spin numbers are in the low 100’s and even when I miss hit it the results are ridiculous. Unless I do an absolutely awful swing my miss hit still go straight and good distance. I do think this club is well worth a look.
It’s called Epic because a synonym of epic is “long” and although the word “epic” is not popular in the UK, they couldn’t name it the Callaway Cunt.
I really enjoy what Rob is adding to the “show”!!!
9/10 for looks from a guy that hated green equipment last season. 9.5 for accuracy from 3 shots, 2 hit fairways. He doesnt give a ten but wait and see what the rating will be for a driver that hits 3 of 3. Feel 9/10 because it feels springier, oh really?
so sick of seeing the grenade commercial. why would you even show it on your channel after they told you to get lessons from crossfield? very rude social media employ
someone rate this guys belt please, it’s driving me crazy
Rick, have you ever thought about reviewing Your Edge Exotics Products
Rob should get 5 shots. 3 isn’t enough
Im American and all of my american friends absolutely hate this name.
please mention what golf ball robb is using, also when you are testing , i think it matters to a senior golfer like myself, although im a 6hcp,, thanks
Has Rob reviewed the new M2? Would like to see that.
It´s a fair point about the name, are the next range going to be called “AWESOME!” and “F AWESOME!” ? but then again is it any more silly than “Aeroburner” ? must admit I prefer the Titleist system of a letter and number..
EPIC VERSUS FUSION PRETTY PLEASE
Great test. Overall score 27.5, that’s high. But changing already my XR16 driver for the Epic? I don’t no. I will see if I can try it somewhere.
I want one!
Interesting to see and hear comments about everyone being longer with Epic. I had a fitting with Callaway this week and they couldn’t beat my current driver (TM Aeroburner TP) or my 4 wood (Callaway x2 hot). Both of those where fitted and it just shows the importance of a good fitting, it will ensure best performance and it will save you a lot of money in the long run. New and shiny doesn’t always mean better
Rob definitely not getting ENOUGH spin for his swing speed. Smash factor not that great either…
FYI, I do not use the word epic.
What happened to Rob’s aeroburner driver?
Cmon Rob … 9 for looks ???? Callaway ruined this driver with the speed bumbs on top , so Ugly ! Its sad because this looks to be a hot driver and callaway went with the johnny carnival design and turned a lot of people off . Looks good on you though …;
is this your highest rated driver rob?
Wow what a suprise he likes a Callaway product…
10 balls would be better than only 3
Looks a 9.5? lol. That is one of the ugliest crowns ever made. To each his own I guess.
Hey i’m from the US don’t love the name but it works so what does it matter Also don’t know why they went back to the old green
Ha ha 5,39. Did you just Fart in the swing Rob :-)That was what you needed!! super drive from you!
Epic bloody price…
Rob what was the shaft flex and brand?
