Anybody here hit it yet? I've got to laugh, a lot of hype and almost every review I've read on other forums has the club being the holy grail. Now what mak...

Every new driver is the holy grail. It's the dance they dance. My 07 Burner performs as well as the M2 in my hands. Meh.........

Never hit the F6. Love my G30 Sf Tec and the only reason I picked up the F7 was I had credits and Christmas gift cards to spend at Edwin Watts. There's a couple videos out there where the F6 outperforms an M2 and a Ping G. I'll look them up and post if I can find them. Ali Taylor is another good Pro from Britain who's videos I like also.

I hit the Epic a few times on the range. It feels very solid and is very straight. The distance is indeed good but not crazy long. Golf Spy did a test and the participants averaged 11 yards longer. One of my friends is on the Callaway staff and plays big time tournaments. He loves the Epic and mostly because it is straight. He hits it a mile anyway. I am going to try it on a trackman vs my M1 and maybe will pull the trigger.

Sneakylong thx.....On the lookout for head only or one with a heavier shaft.

The thing I like about the sftec is it has a dependable ballflight. Takes the right side out of play

I want one that takes the left out of play, I hear about these unicorns, yet to hit one though.

DC300

The ones that I have found that eliminate the right side unfortunately FORCE you to the left........WAY left

Really no good for me, my draw turns to a hook all too often. The G30lst is pretty fade biased, I like it, but there's always more lol.

Typhoon

DC300

Yes, I found it to be fad biased as well. Funny because I never go right and for about 3 weeks everything was right side until I dialed it in.

Going to be interesting to see how the M1 stacks up against the lst numbers. Only the stock shaft right now...need to pick up 2-3 more adapters.

DC300

Typhoon The M1 was too high launching/spinning for me with everything at demo days, the Ping G LST crrrrruuushed it, but then I went with the G30 for price and supposedly more fade bias. I like the G30, this year she gets the HZRDUS shaft to see if I can make it a true animal. The M1 is great, no doubt, I hope you knock the snot out of it!

Typhoon

DC300 make sure u look into the HZRDUS shafts. The ping head us heavy so u might want to go with the yellow, which is counterbalanced vs the black.

Or u can change the head weight out for a lower one but u lose moi.

I hit the Epic today and the Epic subzero. The epic looked better at address but both were fine. They both performed the same for me...subzero maybe a little less spinning but nothing like the dreadful subzero from last year.

I'd compare the Epic/epic subzero to the Ping G30/g30 lst. The subzero was as easy to use as the Epic. Ballflight and launch both mid. I was using the 9 degree models and they were launching 9-10 degrees. Spin....Callaway range balls in the AG SIM so I can say much about that...you need the balls with the lines on them for actual spin. Readings i saw were 2900-3200. Subzero only knocking off 100 rpm.

Best thing was that Fujikura pro shaft....I freaking love that shaft. For some reason I can never feel a shaft load. But I get goose bumps over loading feel I get with this. The same shaft more or less is the stock one in the M1 I have and I love that...feel it load ,hold the lag and boom.
