Japanese Great Big Bertha Epic Forged Driver - Any Info?

TourSpecGolf just posted a picture of the Callaway GBB Epic Forged driver on their instagram. Obviously a JDM only club but does anyone know any more about it?

I like the Epic and Epic SZ but this is one odd looking club, to each their own I guess.

Great find!

Forged from unobtanium. Super hot face, high cor, but very forgiving.

I am a little curious as to the lack of Epic irons in Japan (not released yet). Maybe they are getting Epic Forged Irons...

Nice find.

How do you forge carbon fiber?? This has to be an odd marketing stunt, and where are the Callaway markings?

they used it in the old octane drivers and lambo uses it in some of their cars. Basically pressure molding the material in hard to shape pieces.

I would love it they used it for the crown of this driver as I'm not a fan of the tri-axl carbon they are using now form an aesthetic point of view.

Have you ever seen 4x4 twill? Koenigsegg uses it. It's awesome.

I'm wondering what kind of resin to weight ratio they're getting by pressing vs infusion or prepreg....

yep beautiful stuff

Wow! Thanks for posting. I do not find that attractive.

Intriguing, silver face is a plus.

I don't know about that one.

Saw the doubstar tonight, unreal looking....but catering to the slower swing speed player.

Gold on the bottom

Glued Hosel

Smaller sliding weight

Lighter shaft

I will preclude by saying that I am not trying to be an a** or a hater or anything, but what's the big deal about this?

Such a big deal that it's generated 16 whole replies in over a month.

I Think they are referring to the forged cup face this will have

Pretty sure it's a forged cup face

It's still not out yet actually. I think it LOOKS a whole lot better than the regular one, and it seems it will have a forged ti cup face, maybe even DAT55 or SP700 ti. Which sounds pretty exciting to me. I couldn't care less if there are many responses or not. Why would anybody let that decide if something is interesting or not? Odd.

Apparently it's going to be all titanium instead of having the carbon and is supposed to sound and feel better. Bonded hosel also but still with jailbreak tech.

I've noticed that all the local shops are selling thier Demo GBB/SZ driver heads on sale. Could this mean the new head is around the corner
