Well, I'm in the middle of making some BIG swing changes (not stack-and-tilt... ) and I don't think I can offer a real review right now.

I did use the driver three times on Sunday.

1st drive - nasty straight pull OB left. It was a really bad swing.
2nd drive- very nice and straight, but only about 220. Good ball flight.
3rd drive - a slight pull, but a decent drive, again only about 220.

I'm going to stick with the Epic until I get through all the lessons, and get comfortable generating power with a radically shortened backswing. Right now I don't generate the clubhead speed I'm used to, and my timing is off, because my swing "feels" REALLY different. My instructor says not to worry, that once I get comfortable, my SS will go up - above what it was.

I can say the shaft feels good. Seems very stable with a decent swing. I may have to send it back to TMag for a switch to a regular-flex, but again, I'll give this one a fair chance before I do anything else.

Hope that helps.

BTW - where's your Geek review????
