Today’s Forum Thread of the Day showcases new Tour AD XC shafts from Graphite Design. The shafts have been generating interest amongst our members, and commenting in our forums, Graphite Design disclosed the following information on their new additions

“The new 2020 Tour AD XC – “Xtra Carry” – wood shafts will be available at retail on Sept. 6, 2019. The Tour AD XC shaft profile is softer starting at the handle, stiff in the center section and has a stiff tip to promote low/mid launch angles and low-ball spin rates. The Tour AD XC also utilizes the brand new TORAYCA ® M40X carbon-fiber pre-preg in the Mid to Tip Section of the shaft as well as the TORAYCA ® T1100G carbon-fiber pre-preg with NANOALLOY ® technology in the tip section of the shaft for unrivaled shaft stability and precise ball control without the loss of the exceptional feel that Graphite Design shafts are so well known for.”

Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.
