Wow. Building this exact color spec online does not remotely compare to this in-hand pic. That is beautiful.
I picked up my shaft for Flash at the fitter today and he let me jump on the Trackman to swing a few. Swing speed a bit light this morning (I will write it off to zero warm up and taking just a few swings after being in the car). I will take it though. Man I cant wait to play this weekend.

Man, that is beautiful. So much better without the Packers colors.
Well done!
Impressive Hoganesque down range pattern right there Scrap! 6 yards front to back, 12 yards side to side, worst ball 9 yards off dead center, and that one just didn't draw back in for you like you'd expect. That tight at 250 yards down range. So Nice!

Was this with the Smoke Shaft? The dispersion is insane.
Finally managed to get my self new driver. Broke my old xr16 in january.
Over last 3 weeks i have been fiting drivers.
I went and tried to get fit for PXG gen 1 and 2, TM M5 and M6, G400, G410, Titlest TS2 and TS3, Wilson Cortex, and Rogue and finally flash. Flash was winner for me.
Best i got suited were:
1. Flash
2. Rogue
3. PXG
4. TS2
5 - rest were pretty much the same.
Swing speed is avg 110

No. It was my Aerotech Ti-Fiber that I had in my original Epic (fitted). I thought I was going to just plug -n-play with the Flash, but when I switched it over, the weight was way off of what felt right. The flash head is heavier vs the original epic (203grams vs 195grams). So, had the swing weight changed back and it seem to be back on point now.
The dispersion seems to be better with the Flash compared to original Epic. Time will tell I guess. I am sure I will be able to spray drives with the best of them, I just hope its not often. Lol.
I did order it with the Smoke and it was really good too. I just have had pretty good luck with the Aerotech and have been pretty happy.

Jaw dropping! Fits perfectly with your custom shaft!
Thanks. Went to the range to swing a few and the larger sample size of a bucket yeilding not so 'Hoganesque' results, LOL. but am overall pretty happy.

Hit the Sub Zero side by side with some other notable recent releases, including M5 and F9. It is louder and a more metallic sound than the others mentioned, but not to an unpleasing level, just noticeable. The SZ version was a little quieter than the regular version. That being said, it produced solid ball speeds and I really got along with it judging by the strikes on the face. Looking forward to more time with this one.

Of the Epic Flash line, Sub Zero is my go to.
Out of the 3 I mentioned, it was F9 by a slight margin, then EF SZ, then M5 distantly. F9 registered 3mph higher ball speed today and I just did not get along with the M5 at all. It's just one long demo session on a winter swing, but F9 and EF SZ move onto the next round for me. I also can't wait to see ball flight and try and tinker around with the APW.

I'm in the same realm... although I'm still really big on M5 Tour until I can hit it again.
289 carry with 161 ball speed? Nice! I barely get that in carry at 175 ball speed (when I actually achieve it).
Then there’s the internal part of me (that controls my credit cards) that is on a repeated loop of “STOP BUYING GOLF CLUBS, STOP BUYING GOLF CLUBS” lol. I’ll own this one very soon, I’m just trying not to be easy to get.
I still haven’t hit the SZ Flash. The regular one spun way too much for me-but that is normal. I expected nothing else. It did give higher speeds across the face for me, as in off center hits were given a higher smash factor than other clubs. I compared it to a Rogue SZ, and sn R15 430. Ball speed and spin was best with the R15 430 but almost on par with the Rogue SZ, and this was the regular Flash. I can’t wait to hit the Flash SZ. If I can only figure out how to line a Callaway club up properly, this will be great for me.
I hope you enjoy that cover! Hahaha
That is badass!Customs showed up today.
It is a really cool detail.
I'm thinking of plugging in the shorter BB7 shaft in for my next round. Hit two really, really good drives last rd, but I've been out of sync and I feel the shorter and heavier shaft helps get me back on track. Think long term the HZRDUS is the right one for me, but when my swing's out of whack glad to have the old back up.
The two drives I mentioned were on very short par 4s. One I was just 10 yards off greenside to the right, and the other left me a 30yard pitch from the right rough. It's hard for me to say how much distance is the better fit, and how much is the tech. It's a good thing knowing I'm not leaving any ball speed on the table though.

I had the Epic Flash on the monitor today and had a freaking blast hitting some golf shots with it. My predominant ball flight lately on course has been a small fade that just seems to carry so well, and tonight I was seeing the ball data for that same flight. I have no idea how I'm doing it but I'm hitting these killer little low-spin cuts that look absolutely filthy.
Ball speed seems to be solid all over the face, but takes a nice jump when I catch it a little heelside and above center.
All in all, I am oozing confidence with this driver. I am hitting it far and I'm hitting fairways. I freaking LOVE IT!
Here's my numbers from tonight. Normally my spin isn't quite this low but I had a small glitch in the swing. Typically my spin averages around 2300.
**Ignore the club speed data, it is just a calculation off of ball speed (GC2 without HMT).
I love seeing actual data. 272 carry with 105 CHS (or in this case 153 Ball Speed) is amazing! Scares me a little, I’m only getting about 15 yards more with about 20MPH more ball speed. I NEED to be fitted by the Callaway folks.

There's plenty of fitters capable of possibly getting you some better numbers.
Canadan’s swing is very impressive. I knew he was a great golfer before getting the chance to play with him but those expeditions were even lower than reality. Dude can play his ball.
