Callaway Epic Flash, Epic Flash Sub Zero Fairway Woods feature steel Flash Face
Not surprisingly, like the Epic Flash Driver, the Callaway Epic Flash Fairway Wood feature the company’s new Flash Face Technology.
You can find a more in-depth explanation of the technology in our article on the Epic Flash and Epic Flash Sub Zero drivers. In a nutshell, however, the company leveraged artificial intelligence and machine learning to develop a unique clubface that maximizes COR across the face for optimum ball speed on both on and off-center hits for the 2019 Callaway fairway wood offering.
While the Flash Face of the Flash and Flash Sub Zero drivers is titanium, Callaway uses 455 Carpenter steel — equipped with the company’s Face Cup technology — in the fairway woods.
Additionally, and like with the drivers, Callaway integrates its Jailbreak Technology, as it did with last year’s Rogue (but did not with the original GBB Epic fairway wood).
Flash fairway woods also feature a new, lighter OptiFit Hosel. The weight savings in the hosel makes it possible for both Jailbreak and adjustability in the same fairway wood for the first time.

Callaway Epic Flash Sub Zero Fairway Wood
As it has with both the GBB Epic and Rogue, Callaway again offers spin and trajectory adjustability via a pair of sole weights.
While the weights in the GBB Epic Sub Zero were 22 and three grams respectively, the pair in the Epic Flash Sub Zero are 16 and two grams. The heavy-weight-forward position is the lowest-spin setting. The heavy-weight-back position creates a higher ball flight and adds forgiveness.
With respect to additional technology, Epic Flash Sub Zero is, like the Epic Flash, equipped with Flash Face, Jailbreak, Face Cup, and the lighter OptiFit Hosel.

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.
“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

I’m passionately overwhelmed by the exquisite beauty of these gorgeous fairways. I’m shaking just looking at the photos and planning to acquire them in my WITB bevy of beauties. I love them.

I was hyped about these but don’t think I can get over that stupid white line across the crown…
