2021 Callaway Epic Speed Max - Leaked Photo

[new2g0lf]

I don't care what the bottom of the club looks like, as long as the crown looks okay, I'm good.

Looks like Phil has it for testing on his most recent Instagram post

Is it just me or did that thing sound really muted? All those Epic Flash fanboys can kiss that driver goodbye if that’s the case, and they can finally get rid of that paint can sound.

Just saw this epic speed in hand.  Sorry, can't share pics till the 19th.  It looks great.  I actually like the colors.  Going to hit it this afternoon.  I'll report back.

Only the speed? No max to see?

Not today.  Just the speed.

I'm going to go ahead and guess that this thing hits the ball just fine. It's probably not going to do much better than a 905R with a properly fitted shaft, but then again, few things do.

Saw the Speed in hand today. Like others have said, the box and note in the box is clear that no social media is to be posted until the 19th.

Sounded good to my ears.

The excitement of leaked photos is just about the only excitement this new callaway driver has going for it.

 From the looks of it, it was nothing to write home about. Seems like the last 5 Callaway drivers have all been the same with a different paint scheme.

I'm sure if we both hit it, it'd leave a nice, impressive impression.  Looks-wise though, nothing worth much conversation.

[Cwing]

Drivers are mostly Max’d out. Getting / maintains distance on off center hits and finding a driver that helps correct ones common miss is the key.

 

Unless the USGA or some super duper new material is discovered, not much left as far as advancement.

Looks exactly like the Rogue and Mavrik from address. But the bottom...holy smokes did they ever do too much there!! Will be interesting to see how it performs, but really not a fan of the colour scheme! 🤢🤢🤢

Speed max like epic flash

[BirdieBob]

Will be interesting to see how the new jail break speedframe helps out on mishits.

What the pic didn't show is the metallic green flecks in the paint on the crown.  I think it looks cool.

Does it appear green kind of like the Big Bertha B21 looks blue or is it more subtle than that?  Thanks!

[tr881430]

Yikes, that looks bulbous. Baby got back!

[Red4282]

Is it me or does that head look awfully stretched from front to back- the pic looking at the top of the driver.

 

as far as the bottom, its not as bad as i initially thought, i prefer it over the mavrik. Im a sucker for chrome accents though.

Yeah, that looks pretty similar to the standard Rogue which I’m not a fan of at all.  It’s strange to me that the low spin head would be so elongated. I’m curious to hear the reasoning behind that. I can now see why others have said the best looking head was not the Max LS. I’m a bit disappointed in this but I’ll definitely still hit this in my search for my 2021 gamer.

Didn't even see the LS moniker on this! Wow now I wanna see the max non-LS pics from address

I think the B21 drivers has shown drawn back and low in the head weight placement can be low spin. The lack of a front weight is unexpected.

[jds101086]

Isn't the Max LS the Triple Diamond shape and the Speed the SZ shape? It looks like it here, and the added jailbreak must negate the need for a front weight...

[Warrick]

So, is the regular MAX with the slider the best looking head?

 

Do we know stock shafts?

Had epic sz, epic flash sz, and mavrik sz. All played fine, I was never blown away. Original epic was the fav of all 3 but never did care for anything about them. They all sat slightly closed, which for me is a visual nightmare. Went back to TM and Sim suits my eye and much prefer the TM SHAPE and feel. Love the shallow face of the Sim, BUT pics of the  speed does look like it may have a shallower face with would be a big step forward in my opinion.
