What are the improvements in more recent Callaway fairway woods over the Epic Flash? If I am still hitting the Epic Flash well and like the Project X Evenflow Green shaft, i could just use my existing shafts in newer heads. It may not be worth it to switch heads. Thoughts?

Very tempting!

I retired 2 weeks ago. I have been using my time to hit the gym more and practice golf. My short game is coming around. Getting more up and downs. Working on improving my GIR numbers.

Yesterday, I had a 60 ft chip that needed to climb an upslope and then role slowly on a downslope to the hole. I used a 54 degree wedge with heel off the ground and a putting stroke. I executed perfectly and watched it crest the hump and then roll down and in the hole. Birdie 2.

We didn't try that combo.

No. Just pick the right tees for you!

Mitsubishi Chemical MMT

Yes, clubhead speed, ball speed, smash factor. Contributed to carry and total distance improvements. The XXIO shaft was too whippy. The TSR1 shaft was lighter than the AI Smoke and Epic Flash shafts.

It was an interesting experience. We concluded that neither of my drivers were a good fit. I tried three different drivers. Ping G430, Callaway AI Smoke.and Titleist TSR1. The Ping was dropped pretty quickly. I liked both the AI Smoke and TSR1. The TSR1 gave me more carry distance, total...

Different heads. XXIO Prime vs Callaway Epic Flash. The faster driver has less mass.

Not a mental thing at all. The lighter driver shaft, grip and head plus counterweighted vs a heavier shaft and head with std grip. Both resulted in similar ball speeds 120 - 123 mph.

2nd Swing near me. The fitter has an excellent reputation.
