FULL DESCRIPTION
The Graphite Design Tour AD VR – designed to “Vanquish all Rivals” was designed and is manufactured at the Graphite Design Japan factory headquarters. The Tour AD VR graphite shafts are dark blue with white and silver accents and are finished with a matte clear coat and are available in 40g R2, R1 and S flex, 50g R2, R1, S and X flex, 60g SR, S and X flex, 70g S and X flex and 80g S and X flex. The Tour AD VR, like the other premium Tour AD graphite shafts, utilizes premium, aerospace quality 50t carbon-fiber materials and it has a slightly higher balance point than the other current Tour AD graphite shaft profiles. The Tour AD VR shaft also utilizes FTT -Fast Taper Technology, which incorporates a faster taper rate from the grip to the lower mid-section of the shaft, providing the overall feeling of greater club head control at impact and an increase in club head speed The Tour AD VR shaft profile is firm to stiff starting at the handle, medium/firm in the center section and has a firm tip to promote a mid/high launch angle and low ball spin rates. The Tour AD VR also utilizes TORAYCA® T1100G carbon-fiber pre-preg with NANOALLOY® technology in the tip section of the shaft for additional shaft stability, exceptional feel and precise ball control. See a Graphite Design authorized Golf Club Fitting professional and come to the tee box ready with your new Tour AD VR graphite shaft and “Vanquish all Rivals” from tee to green.
HOW IT COMPARES
The Tour AD VR sits at mid-high launch and low spin with a firm-to-stiff butt, medium/firm mid, and firm tip — Fast Taper Technology and a slightly higher balance point than most Tour AD models delivering a stable, controlled feel with a hint of kick that suits 71–105+ mph swing speeds who want a penetrating mid-high ball flight without the extreme stiffness of the VF. Players who want more height and carry should look at the Tour AD DI or CQ, while those needing maximum spin suppression and the lowest launch in the lineup should move toward the Tour AD VF or FI instead.
