Why Choose the Graphite Design Tour AD DI Golf Shaft?
The Graphite Design Tour AD DI golf shaft changed the shaft industry when it was introduced. The Deep Impact technology uses multiple material types strategically placed throughout the shaft to maximize energy transfer at impact. The result is a shaft that feels smooth during the swing but produces explosive ball speed.
What makes the Graphite Design Tour AD DI golf shaft unique? The DI features Graphite Design’s proprietary FTT (Fast Track Technology) and SST (Shaft Stiffness Technology). The mid-section is reinforced for stability, while the tip section is designed for active feel. This combination creates a shaft that launches mid with very low spin.
Unlike other premium shafts, the Graphite Design Tour AD DI golf shaft is instantly recognizable by its bright orange finish. It has been played by multiple major champions and remains one of the most popular premium shafts on professional tours.
