   I’m Reading mostly negative comments on GD AD- DI? Why? Are you all pros? I’m playing hcp 3,5 ish and on my way to 2. Something – my SSP is 102 and The AD DI 6 stiff is the most steady and low spinning shaft I’ve had – not! Going to rip it out of my Cobra Fly Z + in the nearest future!

   Hi guys. Bill here from Pro’s Choice/Graphite Design. I would like to clarify that this new retail offering of the Tour AD DI shafts in TX flex is by no means a new model with a DI paint job. The TX Flex shafts that we have been manufacturing for years has always been a “Tour Only” shaft offering. We have had numerous requests from customers over the years for the heavier Tour AD DI-7 and DI-8 shafts in a stiffer flex thus we have decided to now begin to offer to the retail market the Tour AD DI-7 and DI-8 weights in the stiffer TX Flex. We are also happy to now be able to now offer the DI9-X Flex shaft as well. The Tour AD DI model continues to be a very popular shaft profile for us and we enjoy being able to continue to add new weights and flexes in an effort to meet the requests of our customers.

   Thank you all for your continued support of the Graphite Design brand.

   Question is, should it even be called the AD-Di? Basically it’s a different shaft with the Di orange paint job, just so they can sell more of this paint job, making people think it’s the one that Eldrick used, and making money off that, because Graphite Design knows it’s getting beaten by the likes of Aldila, Fujkura, et al.

     Because they offered it in a stiffer flex? I don’t follow. So every shaft manufacturer should call their regular and stiff flex shafts of the same model something different?

     Ever heard of the blind leading the blind?

   They do– its called the BB or the 9003 series will lower launch and spin. All they’re doing is offering the exact DI profile in a stiffer flex… I don’t know why people are whining about it.

   The shaft is popular and already well known so offering it with a stiffer flex just simply allows even more people to fit into it without tipping the heck out of it for those that truly swing fast enough to need it.

   dont know about “select few” – I swing about 113 mph with the driver and I had a tour ad di6x – it felt like a total noodle, spinny, soft noodle!
   I agree with the other poster here that you’d just choose a different shaft and stop drinking the “that orange shaft tiger used to use” kool-aid

   Why not just use a different shaft?
