Epic or Saga in my 9015d?

landshark · December 12, 2009

i just got an adams 9015d head in a 9.5 loft. i've demo'd the model with the stock shaft and the trajectory was fine. i put in a talimonti shaft and the trajectory is now a bit lower than i expected. the other shafts i have that i could put in their would be a harrison saga or a graf. epic shaft. which do you feel would give me a little more height and most potential for distance? thanks

btw... the talimonti is a great shaft, just seems to launch lower.

I originally purchased my 9015 with a V2. I hated the shaft and began searching around for a replacement. I decided to try out the saga after reading some very good reviews on the shaft and I figured for $60 I could take the chance. I installed a 70s saga in my 9015 back in June and have not thought twice about changing the combo for anything in the world. The club is perfect for me. I would recommend the saga to anyone and for $60 even if it's not quite right your not out a whole lot of cash.

I went to a demo day this past summer and happened to hit the 9015/epic combo. When I bought mine I tried the stock ozik and then changed to the epic. Trajectory is spot on for me.

I am also thinking of getting a Saga 70 for a future buy (9015D) head. Any comments of how the shaft plays in the head? What is your SS, typical miss, tempo etc.. Thanks

both good choices i guess. i have both at my disposal. just trying to figure out which one.

my swing speed is around 100-105 with a moderate tempo. Previously I played 8.5* drivers but went to the 9.5* in the 9015 because of the low spin factor. With the SAGA I seem to hit it just a little higher than my previous drivers. With the V2 in the club I had to work very hard at getting the trajectory up. My common miss right now is a running draw. I play my drivers short, 44-44.5, and decided on the 70 to keep the weight up.
