randagios Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Any info about this new GD Tour AD series? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gocchin Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Its a step a way from recent Tour AD's over the last few years. They tried to create a new shaft with great balance so what results is maybe the Tour AD with the best kick of the last few years. Stiff butt, medium center, slightly softer tip for more action and more feel of the head, hence the bigger rush through impact. If we were to compare the recent models and their stiffness profiles with 4 being the stiffest and 1 being the softest: GT Tip: 1 Center: 2 Butt: 4 Bend Point: Between tip and center BB Tip: 3 Center: 4 Butt: 1 Bend Point: Between center and butt DJ: Tip: 4 Center: 1 Butt: 2 Bend Point: Just above center towards the butt DI: Tip: 2 Center: 3 Butt: 3 Bend Point: Just below center towards the tip Gives a bit of idea of how each shaft performs and feels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gocchin Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 More launch... spin probably more actually considering its softer in the tip area by quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
