Epic Forged Star Irons are designed to deliver maximum distance through the optimal combination of speed, spin, ball flight and ultra-lightweight components. Quote from review by James Miles September 20, 2019: “ The definition of a concept club with no corners cut, the second iteration of the Epic irons is aimed firmly at the premium market, and Callaway believes wholeheartedly they have taken things to another level. "  Quick Take- 
At $300.00 per club, ( original price ) there is a lot more to take in than just the looks of the Epic Forged irons. With that said, Callaway has accomplished design features never done before in irons and the results get as close to backing up the price tag as possible. Filthy distance, vastly upgraded looks, and an overall impressive sound/feel round out a high tech and high-performance package. So Shiny - Right into the fray, the Epic Forged irons are a big leap from their predecessors. Where the Epic and Epic Pro irons last go-round seemed to focus only on the tech and performance, with these Callaway aimed to also address the looks, and so they have.
The Epic forged have got curves in all or the right places, and with the goal of creating something that looked ‘striking’, the angles, the flow, the finish, and the badging all come together to pull it off.
Speaking of that address look, these look quite good there, the topline is trim, the offset is minimal, and even as someone who isn’t a huge fan of polished chrome the look there ties these together well. I think people who get to see these in hand will be pleasantly surprised. Definition of Cutting Edge
You want tech? The Epic Forged irons have got tech. Callaway let their R&D hounds loose on this one and it shows. Frankly though, at $300.00 an iron, it should show.
Right out of the gates Callaway moved to 1025 forged carbon steel, hence the forged in the name of the clubs. The reason behind this was a simple one, sound/feel. That is the area where the Epic Forged irons predecessors had the most consistent critical feedback from people and the decision to move to 1025 CS was a big step towards correcting that. However, that move came with the necessity to find a way to apply the face cup while letting it stand up to the forces of impact.
The 360 Face Cup is still present, alive, and well. Using many of the methods they did with the Apex irons, Callaway managed to make the design work, and work it does. As has been the case with every Callaway iron I have hit with Face Cup, the ball comes off hot and retains a ton of speed on misses. The rest of the tech picture makes that aspect work even more.
The Epic Forged are the first irons where Callaway has used a suspended tungsten weight which allows them to tune each iron within the set more precisely than possible in the past. But, to suspend MIM’ed (metal injected molding) tungsten in its purest form, they had to find a way to suspend it since it isn’t weldable. Enter the TPU (urethane) jacket around the weight and then the use of urethane microspheres which have literally millions of tiny air pockets that allow the weighting to stay in place through impact because of how they respond to force.
Callaway also applied a new VFT milling to the irons which is like what was done so successfully in the Apex 19’s. This milling means to help combat the downfall to such strong lofted and high ball speed clubs by adding a little spin to the equation to create more consistency and less fliers.” Personal Note : The only reason I am parting with these beauties, are because I have a newly gifted set of Miura which is what I use regularly now . Hope these will reach a golf aficionado who loves, cherishes and enjoys these beautiful clubs like I have.
TESTED: Callaway’s money-no-object Epic Forged iron
Today's Golfer : Published:
24 April 2020 How this new money-no-object hollow-headed model compares against two of Callaway’s most popular mainstream offerings. There’s a growing trend in golf for brands to launch super-premium irons, with prices that run to thousands. The trend can be traced to PXG, who were the first to push the price boundary back in 2015. As other brands have watched PXG convince golfers to spend £2,000 or more on a set of irons, they’ve come up with their own. Designing golf equipment without the constraints of cost means designers can use all sorts of exotic materials, construction methods and premium shaft and grip options, which you’ll never find on mainstream ranges. The result can be a 7-10 per cent difference in forgiveness performance between a brand’s most and least expensive irons, and that’s what you pay for. The numbers aren’t up for debate – what is, though, is whether club golfers can notice the difference. Callaway Epic Forged iron what’s new Epic Forged are aimed at very specific game improving golfers – the type of players who want more speed and distance and don’t mind paying for the privilege. Forged 1025 carbon heads, the same material as Callaway musclebacks, bring a solid dose of premium sound and feel to the party, which game improvers don’t often get with irons aimed at them. Callaway’s Cup Face tech along with a new variable face thickness pattern improves on-centre hit speed and protects drop offs for typical misses. Suspended tungsten weighting inside the Epic’s head positions the centre of gravity precisely, aiding launch across what is a very strong lofted set. Callaway Epic Forged irons our verdict
Strong-lofted irons regularly take a beating, as some golfers feel cranking lofts to add distance is cheating. But in the right hands, we reckon they can be a revelation.
For two years now Callaway’s Rogue X irons have been the longest irons we’ve tested; they’ve also had the strongest lofts, and the X’s lofts are virtually the same as the Epic Forged. It means shots launch low, spin less and carry a country mile, as long as your swing has no struggles launching shots high from the turf.
For us, while Epic Forged are very long, they’re not for all distance-seeking golfers, as slower swing speeds often need help launching shots higher (not lower), to maximise carry. Our test pro didn’t feel the Epic felt like a forged iron, which probably comes down to the hollow cavity construction. He did, as our data supports, find shots powered off the face like a driving iron. Looks-wise Epic Forged has half the offset of the Rogue X iron, the top edge is thinner and much more nicely shaped, giving an almost “player” style look.
Don’t just focus on the Epic’s 12-yard carry distance gain over the beautiful Apex 19; you have to realise everything about Epic Forged is geared towards speed and distance. We’ve mentioned the strong lofts, but the shafts are also over a quarter of an inch longer than the Apex 19, which could cause accuracy/consistency issues, and there’s a heavier swingweight. It all means you swing at the same speed but the club travels faster, all to boost speed and distance.
As lovely as Epics are, they are for a relatively small group of very well-heeled golfers. Players who need forgiveness, speed and distance, but are also capable of launching the 7-iron (which is just 0.5° weaker than the Apex’s 6-iron) and the rest of the set high enough, without dropping silly levels of backspin. TESTED: Which Callaway iron suits me? How they compare in data Callaway Epic Forged Irons Review PLUGGEDIN - on November 13, 2019 50 Words or Less The Callaway Epic Forged irons create unbelievable ball speed and distance.  Massive forgiveness.  Surprisingly compact look at address. Introduction The fall of 2019 has brought a steady trickle of new clubs from Callaway, including their new premium iron, the Epic Forged.  With a price tag that blasts through the $2,000 barrier, it’s fair to ask, “What makes them that premium?”  I tested them in an attempt to answer that question. Looks When I started reading up on the Callaway Epic Forged irons, “compact” was not a word I expected to use when describing the look.  Then I got one in hand, set it down behind a ball, and compact was the word that seemed to fit. The design of the Epic Forged is a master class in hiding bulk.  This is objectively a big, thick iron, but the modest offset and dual finishes make it look smaller than it is .  If you’re looking at the thick top line and thinking, “Matt, you’re off your rocker calling this compact,” I challenge you to go see one in person.  I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Sound & Feel The word “crisp” appears in my notes multiple times, so we’ll start there.  When struck well, the Callaway Epic Forged irons sound and feel crisp .  The ball snaps off the face with purpose, leaving a satisfying feeling and the sense that the ball is going to end up very far away. That crispness is paired with another C word on mishits: clunky .  When you wander out of the sweet zone, impact sounds disjointed.  Mishits don’t sting, they just lack the reward of the pure shot. Performance Before anyone runs to the comments to point this out, I’ll say it: the lofts on the Epic Forged irons are crazy strong .  I don’t think there’s a set of irons with stronger lofts, though there are plenty that are close.  Yes, this may cause distance gap issues for some players, but, again, the same can be said for many modern sets. All that said, the performance of the Epic Forged irons is outrageous.  In my launch monitor testing, I was routinely seeing smash factors of 1.45 – a number usually reserved for drivers and fairway woods. Ball speed was sky high and the distances were huge .  And this is not just about the lofts, as we discovered in a recent Golf Myths Unplugged . Two other performance elements merit conversation.  First is the low spin .  Low spin is becoming a given for modern distance irons.  Part of this is the result of the strong lofts, part is the location of the center of gravity.  Callaway states that the Epic Forged irons are their first to use a Suspended Tungsten Core to precisely locate the CG.  Whether this low spin is good or bad depends on the player, and it makes being fit very important . Finally, the Epic Forged irons are extremely forgiving .  Shots low on the face elevate easily.  Shots on the heel and toe retain plenty of ball speed and distance.  For ease of use, few irons are in the same category as the Callaway Epic Forged. Conclusion The price tag on the Callaway Epic Forged irons may be eye-popping but so is the performance.  There are legitimate technological advancements here that produce insane ball speed, distance, and forgiveness.  If you have the means, see a qualified club fitter about tuning a set to your swing.
