Spotted: Callaway GBB Epic Sub Zero “PM440” hits USGA conforming list

Published

on

Callaway’s GBB Epic Sub Zero driver — the more forgiving, yet deeper-faced option in the GBB Epic driver series — has made waves on professional golf Tours, and it also garnered the most votes in GolfWRX’s Members Choice: The Best Driver of 2017. The retail models measure 460cc, but there’s another 440cc version floating around on Tour in the bag of Alex Noren.

Now, there’s yet another GBB Epic Sub Zero model in existence; a “GBB Epic Sub Zero PM440” is listed on the USGA Conforming Clubs list.20160753

What could a left-handed Callaway driver named “PM” possibly mean? We’ll go out on a limb and guess that Callaway has made a GBB Epic Sub Zero 440 driver especially for Phil Mickelson, but we will update this story when Callaway representatives provide further insight on the “PM440.”

Update: “It’s a left-handed 440cc version of Phil’s driver,” said a Callaway representative. “It’s a one-off Tour prototype that they built of his driver for him, instead of the standard 460cc head.”

    I wish they would come to market with that same black/ silver or black/grey color scheme versus the green/ black scheme.

    Personally I lprefer a smaller head like a SLDR/M1 430/440, 917 D3.

    But I really wish a there was a pic from the address point of view, because that’s really a huge factor of importance I think.

      I like the EPIC Sub-Zero much better than the Taylormade M1 which I thought was a pretty good driver. So for me and many others it is more epic than fail….

What’s the perfect mini-driver/shaft combo? – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

In our forums, our members have been discussing Mini-Drivers and accompanying shafts. WRXer ‘JamesFisher1990’ is about to purchase a BRNR Mini and is torn on what shaft weight to use, and our members have been sharing their thoughts and set ups in our forum.

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

  • PARETO: “New BRNR at 13.5. Took it over to TXG (Club Champ but TXG will always rule) in Calgary for a fit. Took the head down to 12, stuck in a Graphite Design AD at 3 wood length and 60g. Presto- numbers that rivaled my G430Max but with waaaaay tighter dispersion. Win.”
  • driveandputtmachine: “Still playing a MIni 300.  The head was only 208, so I ordered a heavier weight and play it at 3 wood length.  I am playing a Ventus Red 70.   I play 70 grams in my fairways.  I use it mainly to hit draws off the tee.  When I combine me, a driver, and trying to hit a draw it does not work out well most of the time.  So the MIni is for that. As an aside, I have not hit the newest BRNR, but the previous model wasn’t great off the deck.  The 300 Mini is very good off the deck.”
  • JAM01: “Ok, just put the BRNR in the bag along side a QI10 max and a QI10 3 wood. A load of top end redundancy. But, I have several holes at my two home courses where the flight and accuracy of the mini driver helps immensely. Mine is stock Proforce 65 at 13.5, I could see a heavier shaft, but to normal flex, as a nice alternative.”
