About this product
The Callaway EPIC Max 5 Fairway Wood is a single right-handed 5-wood with 18 degrees of loft, designed for men. It features a stiff flex HZRDUS Smoke graphic shaft and is part of the EPIC Max series. This club is suited for golfers seeking a high-launching fairway wood with a premium shaft. The club is made in Japan, indicating quality craftsmanship. It is a single club, not a set, and is intended for use as a fairway wood.
Our take
When comparing this 5-wood to other fairway woods, the 18-degree loft is a mid-loft option, suitable for players needing distance with control. The stiff flex shaft is geared toward golfers with faster swing speeds, which may be a trade-off for those with moderate swings. The EPIC Max name suggests a focus on forgiveness, but without testing, we rely on the spec sheet. The price point is mid-range for a single club, reflecting the brand and shaft quality. Golfers who prefer a regular flex or higher loft might find this limiting. It's a solid choice for those who want a specific loft and flex in a premium fairway wood.
