    Don't buy one without talking to me first. I have contacts and cheap prices and stuff.

    The SAGA love comes from all of the guys that were trying to find the best shaft for the 9015D.

    I'm very keen for a test. I'll pick it up soon, most likely Monday or Tues if he finishes my wedge.

    I used to be a big fan of Harrison shafts, so I am slightly curious.

    60 S...

    ....it was pretty HAWT. Don't know if it is the 'be all and end all', but it was a good combo.

    The 10.5* with the 60 S just launched HIGH and penetrating and flat and just kept goin' & goin'. I was watching it and thinking when is the damn thing gonna start coming down. Didn't necessarily hit it further than normal, but the CARRY and flight was as good as anything I've hit in a 10*+ driver. EVER. Wouldn't mind either trying it in a 9.5* head for a little more forward roll at landing (there was some scope to bring the flight down WITHOUT losing carry distance IMO)...or try the 70 S in the 10.5* head.

    Certainly promising for a first up test...

    Reads like you hit your career shot. I'd stop there.
    Consciousness and awareness - awareness is being aware of what is happening and being aware of what is happening within ourselves while we are conscious. Where did I leave my glasses?

    Some fine tuning required Ray...(that and another chance to ho around!!)

    I just felt that the Angle of Descent was a little steep, and that the lightweight shaft (which I usually don't get on quite so well with) will exacerbate my tendency to get quick etc.

    Very nice combo with the Adams IMO. Hit fits 10.5* with a 60 S flex. Feels good, a little whippy but it gives a nice ball flight!

    Never said it wasn't. I only hit a few with it JC, but I would call it mid. You would have no problems getting it higher IMO.

    It is very penetrating though, not sure why, but it keeps going.

    Around $60US plus shipping. We are about to grab some things from Victory Custom Golf. You'd prob have one to your door for $80-90 if you are interested in joining a group buy.

    Get S, you can always make it play a little weak to flex then tip it if necessary IMO. Best to ask Fit though. If you have a spare hour or three.
