Heads are heads nomatter what shaft you place in them. Whether one plays d2 weighting or whichever weighting they prefer it is either adjusted by changing weight in the head or loading the shaft to weight the club correctly for the golfer. I've not seen one clubhead that says best for or use only with graphite. Besides the average golfer is not going to distinquish that much difference in 20-30 grams
