On the LPGA Tour, the winner of the LPGA MEDIHEAL Championship held at the Lake Merced Golf Club in Daly City, CA was playing a Graphite Design Tour AD TP 5-Stiff flex shaft in her TaylorMade M5 Driver. The champion won her eighth career LPGA Tour event after making a birdie on the first playoff hole.

Congratulations to the 2019 Wells Fargo Champion. The winner has been playing Graphite Design golf shafts since his college days and we hope to see him again in the winner’s circle soon”, commented Erik Boysen, V.P. of Tour Promotions, Pro’s Choice Golf Shafts, Inc.

Designed and manufactured at the Graphite Design Japan factory headquarters, the Tour AD TP wood shaft is available in 40g R2, R1 and S flex, 50g R2, R1 and S flex, 60g SR, S, X and TX flex, 70g S, X and TX flex and 80g S and X flex.

The Tour AD TP, like all of the premium Tour AD wood shafts, utilizes premium, aerospace quality 50t carbon-fiber materials in order to deliver the best feeling and performing shaft available to golfers.

Designed around new tooling, the Tour AD TP utilizes a technology called Fast Taper Technology or “ FTT” . This technology incorporates a faster taper rate from the lower mid-section to the tip of the shaft than previous Tour AD wood shaft models. The Fast Taper Technology provides the overall feeling of greater club head control at impact and an increase in club head speed through the swing.

The Tour AD TP shaft has a medium stiffness starting at the handle thru the mid-section of the shaft and a stiff tip profile to promote a mid/high launch condition and low spin. The new Tour AD TP also utilizes TORAYCA ® T1100G carbon-fiber pre-preg with NANOALLOY ® technology in the tip section of the shaft for additional shaft stability, exceptional feel and precise ball control.

During independent robotic golf club testing, the new Tour AD TP-6 Stiff Flex shaft gained +3.5 yards in Carry Distance and +3.8 yards in Total Distance while maintaining tight dispersion rates vs. comparable Tour AD 65g wood shaft models.

Make a change in your Driver or Fairway metal wood today to the same shaft that the professionals use, the new “ Tour Proven” Tour AD TP model of premium Graphite Design graphite golf shafts with FTT – Fast Taper Technology.

Member of the Winning 2-Man Team of the PGA Tour Zurich Classic of New Orleans Played Graphite Design

CARLSBAD, CA – May 2, 2019 – Pro’s Choice Golf Shafts, Inc. announced today that a member of the winning 2-man team of the PGA Tour Zurich Classic of New Orleans was playing a Graphite Design Tour AD DI-8 X-Stiff Flex wood shaft in his Taylormade M5 19° #5 metal wood.

“Congratulations to the 2019 Zurich Classic winners. Exciting to see Graphite Design being played by one of the winners”, stated Wayne Ageno, President, Pro’s Choice Golf Shafts, Inc.

The Tour AD DI “DEEP IMPACT” is designed to provide golfers with more power and stability in a golf shaft. Designed and manufactured exclusively at the Graphite Design factory headquarters in Japan, the Tour AD DI shafts are available in 50g R2(Lite), R1(Regular) and S flex, 60g SR (Stiff Regular), S and X flex, 70g S, X and TX (Tour X-Stiff) flex, 80g S, X and TX flex and 90g X flex.

The Tour AD DI 5-R2, R1 and S flex, 6-SR, S and X flex, 7-S and X flex and 8-S and X are available in two color schemes of orange with white bands and green rings and a 2nd color option of black with white bands and silver rings. The Tour AD DI 7-TX, 8-TX and 9-X flex shafts are available only in the orange color scheme.

The Tour AD DI is our first shaft design that was integrated with Toray Company’s original NANOALLOY material technology in the tip section of the shaft. This material technology has now come to be known as “DI Technology”. This unique material technology promotes additionally shaft stability without the loss of feel and allows the player to create greater club head speed and thus greater ball speed while still providing exceptional feel and control.

The Tour AD DI also utilizes premium, aerospace quality 50t carbon-fiber materials to provide the best performing shaft available. The softer mid-section bend profile of the Tour AD DI allows the player to load the shaft properly, yet it maintains a firm enough tip section through IMPACT promoting a high launch and low spin ball flight condition. The result, the Tour AD DI delivers players to the next level in shaft performance and will create a “DEEP IMPACT” on your game!

Revolutionary technology, design and the most advanced materials are trademarks in all Graphite Design shafts, making them the highest quality premium golf shafts on the market today. Validating the company’s “Tour AD” logo, all of Graphite Design’s PGA Tour-proven shafts are specifically designed to promote a gain in Accuracy and Distance.
