If you are looking for spin reduction, then you will see far less spin with the T75 than the standard epic. The FWY is a monster and I would really recommend it to anyone.

Was torn between the epic and the epic tour. This article clearly made up my mind for me on move to the epic tour for the ft-i LCG. If that goes well, I look forward to the epic fairway.

As a driver shaft, it is very good but as the review makes pretty clear, as a 3 wood shaft it is phenomenal. Adoption may change now that Trevor Immelman used it in his driver and 3W in his victory at the Masters.

The thing that makes me pause about the true greatness of this shaft is why do I not see any of the top twenty players in the world with an Epic shaft in their driver that plays it on tour. I always consider that the true yardstick. There must be something about the shaft that they don’t like.

I bought one saturday for my FT-5. That was the shaft that callway recommended after a fitting session.

I just bought this shaft today for my 8.5 Burner TP. Needless to say I thought the price was pretty good, versus the Speeder 757. I was hitting the FT-5 with it today and it made a huge difference. My spin was down to nearly 2900 RPM, and my launch angle was about 11.9. Amazing!

Had this shaft all year last year. KILLER. Totally worth the price.

Most of the shaft failures are from improper tip prep. Make sure you just rough up the tip, do not over prep. If the finish changes color you have taken to much of the surface you may as well throw the shaft away.

I really like this shaft played it most of last season and accuracy is it’s strongest asset.

I put the X in my HS9 X when it first showed up, and it was impressive. It gave me a nice mid to high knuckle ball. It’s a long straight shaft, no joke. I like to work the ball and I can do it with this shaft without the occasional extreme to either side, so that was the impressive part to me. Its a balanced shaft with moderate feel, if you want control and have a higher swing speed I’d recommend it in a second.
