II. What Do I Need to Know About the Graphite Design Tour AD DI Golf Shaft: 

Far and away the most popular golf shaft EVER made! While some might point out that the original Fujikura Speeder 757 was the first true premium golf shaft and Mitsubishi’s Blueboard and Whiteboard shafts the first to achieve cult following, the Graphite Design Tour AD DI is still actively competing in the market and breaking sales records to the day with no end in site! A lot of this is due impart to the fact that the DI’s bend profile fits 80 percent of golf swings and has that amazing Graphite Design feel and engineered performance designed to maximize carry distance! This is accomplished by promoting a higher launch angle and a low spin tip section. The Graphite Design Tour AD DI golf shaft is made of a premium proprietary 50-ton Nanoalloy graphite material that has given the Graphite Design Tour AD DI family its unique and signature feel! The bend profile is one where players will feel the shaft flex in the mid section, promoting a high launch angle great for maximizing carry distance, and the stiff tip section will help promote an ultra low ball spin effect for straighter drives, amazing feedback, stability on off-centered shots, and extra roll out on the fairway!

What sets this shaft apart from others is that it falls into the same category of shafts (high-launch, low-spin) is the ultra smooth feel that is unique to the Graphite Design Tour AD brand and effortless kick that occurs through impact, and that it has one of the most stable low-spinning tip sections of many premium level golf shaft manufacturers. 

Player Profile: Tempo: smooth, Transition: moderate, Release: mid, Swing Speed: Moderate, Trajectory: high, Spin: low.

IV. Additional Information About the Graphite Design Tour AD DI Golf Shaft:

This orange shaft (also comes in black) was brought to iconic levels in 2010 after Tiger Woods began playing it along with many other PGA tour players following suit. However, this shaft is not just for touring pros. The mid section bend profile and ultra stable low-spin tip section promotes a piercing and towering ball flight that maximizes carry distance and the majority of golfers will benefit from. The DI has a very smooth “bullwhip” like load and release to it, which makes for effortless drives. Players with relatively moderate tempos looking to maximize their carry distance will benefit immensely from the Graphite Design Tour AD DI! A couple other golf shaft to seriously consider is the new Graphite Design Tour AD TP, which is considered a slightly “tighter” version of the DI, The Mitsubishi Fubuki J, which is a counterbalanced high launch low spin shaft that actually has two kick-points and tungsten mesh for stability, and the Oban Kiyoshi Purple, which is a slightly heavier more stable version of the DI.

General Swing Speed Recommendation: Regular (R1): 86-95mph, Stiff-Regular (SR): 92-98mph, Stiff (S): 96-105mph, X-Stiff (X): 105+mph,
