1. Harrison Driver Shafts

Overview/Technology-

Typically, driver and fairway wood shafts are either.335 or.350 in tip diameter. Harrison has reported that the ShotMaker does fit into some.350 shafts, but for others it will be loose inside the shaft and rattle. Harrison is reportedly working on a model for the.350 shafts. I would recommend looking up your shaft tip diameter on the web. Harrison Saga Black A60 Golf Graphite Driver Shaft 44.75' To Sleeve Adapter.

The Harrison Saga is a new shaft, introduced in 2008, and is known for one of the more stable shafts available today. The low Torque coupled with a a mid flex point, makes this shaft tough to beat in the dispersion category.

Harrison uses a low twist geometry that allows this shaft to have one of the best shot dispersion in its category (stable, low launch, shafts) appealing to the better golfer.

The Saga definitely is one of a dynamic profile. For example, as the overall shaft stiffness increases, the tip section stiffens up and its resistance to torque drops – by allowing the tip stiffness to correspond to the shaft flex, this allows for better players and average golfers to use the same shaft. Additionally Harrison tweaked the flex profile of the shaft so that the softer flexes have higher launch angle to appeal to a larger audience.

Great addition to Harrison’s high quality shaft line. When you have Padraig Harrington, K.J. Choi and Rory Sabbatini touting your products, you bound to have some followers. The Harrison Saga should be no exception – it provides great stability and tight dispersion rates.

Harrison Mugen Overview/Technology-

The Harrison Mugenis a shaft that features a number of technological attributes that make it very unique. The shaft features a Ultra Thin Ply (UTP) and satellite grade graphite fiber.

The fusion between satellite grade fibers and the UTP allows this shaft to weigh as much as 1/3 less the average graphite shaft.

Actual Player Feedback-

“Wow! Completely changed the entire complexion of the club. My trajectory is a bit lower because its not as “whippy” as the stock shaft I had”

“This shaft is awesome!”

“I have nothing but great things to say about this shaft”

Pros/Positives-

Great shaft due to its higher launch and lower torque which makes for a long consistent shaft. The relationship between the high launch coupled with a

Cons/Negatives-

The shaft may seem a bit “looser” that can be misconstrued of the lightness. But the relative low torque keeps this shaft in check.
