WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The Graphite Design Tour AD F-Series is a fairway wood shaft: a firm butt, medium mid and soft tip with a low kick point. Graphite Design rates every build high launch and mid spin. We sell F-55 to F-85 in R2 to X flex. It arrives assembled with your choice of adapter and grip, ready to attach to your fairway wood head.
What You Get
| Item | Details |
|---|---|

| Club | Fairway wood. The order form also lists driver and mini driver; this is a 44" fairway shaft, so contact us before choosing a driver build. |
| Adapter tip | Callaway, Cleveland, Cobra, Krank, Mizuno, Ping, PXG, Srixon, TaylorMade, Titleist, Tour Edge or Wilson, with your hosel setting (see all shaft adapters) |
| Length (adapter tip to grip) | The standard length for your head model, a custom fairway length from 38.5" to 43.5", or left uncut |
| Grip | Golf Pride, SuperStroke, Iomic or JumboMax, logo up or down, with up to 5 wraps of tape |

Who It's For
Good fit if you...
- Want more height and carry from your fairway woods
- Want a shaft made for fairway woods rather than a cut-down driver shaft
- Like a firm handle with a softer, active tip
- Swing from about 71 mph to 105+ mph
Not the right fit if you...
- Want a driver shaft: the F-Series is a 44" fairway design
- Already hit your fairway woods too high
- Need TX flex: the F-Series stops at X
How It Plays
Graphite Design rates the F-Series firm in the butt, medium in the mid and soft in the tip, with a low kick point. Every build is rated high launch and mid spin. The softer tip helps get fairway woods up off the turf.
Weights run from 59 g (F-55 R2) to 91 g (F-85 X). Graphite Design builds it at its factory in Japan from 40-ton carbon fiber, as a companion to its Tour AD wood shafts.
Graphite Design recommends tip trimming of 0.5" for a 3 wood and 1" for a 5 wood or higher before the butt is cut to length. We handle this when we build it.
