Epic Max Fairway loft progression
The loft map is ordered by actual static loft, which matters for named options such as Heavenwood that do not always sit numerically between the wood labels around them. Head shape, centre of gravity and shaft length can still make equal-loft fairway woods fly differently.
Where are the tightest and widest loft gaps?
The tightest static gap is 1.5° between 3-wood and 3-wood HL. The widest is 3° between 5-wood and 7-wood. Those are the first transitions worth checking if real carry gaps look compressed or stretched.

11-wood
5W to 7W structure: 3° separates the 5-wood and 7-wood.
Progression fingerprint: Adjacent loft gaps run from 1.5° to 3° with a 2° median.
Coverage: The family spans 10° from the 3-wood to the 11-wood. This shows how many distinct static-loft windows the lineup covers better than the club numbers alone.
Loft Consistency Score: 31.5/100. A score of 100 means perfectly even spacing between adjacent loft options.
Spec note: Factory lofts can vary by model year, region, handedness or special configuration. Verify an exact club against Callaway documentation when a single degree matters for fitting, replacement or bending.
