Callaway GX Reports

CALLAWAY GREAT BIG BERTHA EPIC DRIVER

A new year means a brand new line up of impressive new clubs from golf’s top manufacturers and, arguably, there is no club that is more highly anticipated in 2017 then Callaway’s Great Big Bertha Epic Driver! For this NGBA GX Report we’re going to try something a little bit different. Instead of our typical standard product testing review and results, we’re going to let one of our Association’s Certified Club Fitters provide you with his per- sonal experience in testing the Great Big Bertha Epic Driver at Ely Callaway Performance Center in Carlsbad, California. So without further adieu… My name is Eric Howard and I’m the Assistant Store Manager and a Certified Club Fitter in Florence, Kentucky. The following NGBA GX Report will provide a different perspective from our standard in-house testing as I was recently given the opportunity to travel to Callaway HQ in Carlsbad, California. It was there at the Ely Callaway Performance Center that I was first able to get hands on and test Callaway’s brand new long bomber. As part of our invitation, we were asked to bring along our current gamer driver, which for myself just so happened to be the predecessor the Epic Driver, the Great Big Bertha. The actual test was relatively simple. We hit a number of shots with our driver and then, using the exact same shaft, we switched to over and hit the same number of shots using the Epic driver head. So how did the Epic Driver pre- form you ask? Let’s take a look!
