Shafts

The Graphite Design Tour AD HD golf shaft is ultra-premium meaning that it is an expensive upgrade choice. Golfers that are serious about their game can level up their performance when the AD HD is built for them. The AD HD is perfect for golfers looking for a well-balanced ball flight that provides more accuracy and more distance either off the tee or coming from the deck with fairway woods. The mid launch and mid-low spin profile of the Tour AD HD makes it well-suited for golfers with a variety of club head speeds and many of the top driver head choices this season.

I’m a big fan of Leus golf towels.  Not only are their designs and patterns eccentric and fun, the towels are well-built and outperform other towels I’ve tried over the years (remember, I’m especially messy). What I also love about the Leus brand is its commitment to social and environmental responsibility.  They’re eco initiatives are unlike anything I’ve seen from a company of its size.  I’m proud to support these endeavors and will continue to going forward.

For years, I’ve had trouble maintaining my focus on the golf course.  No matter how well or poorly I happen to be playing, it seems like my mind starts to wander on about hole 14.  As a result, I make silly mistakes and my buddies end up with more of my money than they should. With that in mind, I was lucky enough to get my hands on some 500MG Focus Terpene Enhanced Broad Spectrum Tincture.  Sure enough, I took one dose before my next round and the results were dramatic.  Not only was I able to stay focused for the entire round, I convinced my partners to play another 18.  I haven’t done that for a long time.

Nothing rolls smoother! Like all RX Series Putters, the RX5 features a higher center of gravity, lower loft, and a deeper face that impacts the ball at the equator, eliminating backspin and creating a lower, more consistent launch angle and superior forward roll, helping the ball stay on the intended line.

The Tee Claw allows golfers to use any golf tee (wood, plastic, broken) instead of hitting off of the dreaded rubber tube. The elastic lanyard allows the Tee Claw to be used for a multitude of drills to include alignment, ball position, swing path, chipping, putting and so much more. The versatility of the Tee Claw is unmatched. There is no other training aid on the market that is as versatile and affordable as the Tee Claw. Tee Claw is also an effective training tool for Baseball, Softball and many other sports!

When I first heard about the revolutionary design of the Vero X1, I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical.  It didn’t take long for that skepticism to subside when I put the ball in play, however.  When I hit this ball side-by-side against premium balls from other top manufacturers, I was blown away with the results.  Not only was my carry distance longer with the Vero X1, my shot dispersion became much tighter. 

I love the look of the MG4+ compared to the previous MG4.1. I think the overall design and fit of the shoe have improved tremendously. G/Fore make some of my favorite golf shoes in the Gallivanter line because of their combination of superior comfort and a traditional style. The MG4+ are perhaps the most comfortable G/Fore shoe I have ever worn. I love the versatility of these shoes and the look for warm-weather rounds. Overall, the MG4+ is thoughtfully constructed and a great fit for golfers looking to be on their feet a lot.

The Gallivanter is the first and only traditional-style golf shoe I can see myself wearing long-term. The Gallivanter is lighter in weight than any other golf shoe I have tried within that style and is more comfortable when walking 18 than I imagined. I typically opt for sneaker style golf shoes like the G/Fore MG4Plus but the Gallivanter open the door for an additional style without having to sacrifice my comfort or performance. For golfers willing to pay the price to have the very best, the Gallivanters check every box.

The Accuhit is a great training aid for helping player reduce tension. The subtle reminder at the bottom of your lower hand is excellent to help keep your hands in a consistent position and sure-up your grip.

The Shot Scope system was already the best golf tracking system on the market. The improvements made with the new V3 design make the watch easier to wear and improve the overall user experience. PinCollect technology enhances the accuracy around the greens for more insights into your short game and putting stats. The V3 provides better tee-to-green coverage than the previous Shot Scope watches and is an excellent upgrade.

The team in the R&D lab at Graphite Design Japan went all out when designing the new Graphite Design MAD wood shafts. A challenge was issued to them to design a shaft that would alleviate the ill-fated golf ball flight issues that results in a lack of Maximum Accuracy and Distance. Accepting the challenge, they went to work in an effort to develop a cure.

Mitsubishi’s Diamana and Tensei golf shaft lines are some of the absolute best in golf. Tensei provides three different profiles to help suit the needs of individual golfers. The Tensei AV Raw Orange shaft is unique in that it features a counterbalance design that can give golfers more speed, more distance, and more forgiveness in their driver and fairway woods. The improvement with the new AV Raw line over the original Tensei Pro shafts is apparent especially with the feel of this shaft. Golfers looking for maximum potential off the tee will be well-suited to add the Tensei AV Raw Orange to their testing list. 

TPT shafts are created using an automated process for industry-leading tolerance control. Golfers seeking the ultimate precision in terms of fit, feel, and performance will get all of that with the TPT Red Range .

The standout feature of the LIN-Q is how much performance is packed into every dollar of this golf shaft. Dollar-for-dollar, the LIN-Q Purple is going to be one of the very best golf shafts on the market. For players that fit well into the LIN-Q Purple it will be very hard to pass on. The LIN-Q Purple combines UST’s signature feel with additional stability and support. The LIN-Q Purple is one of the best performing golf shafts we have ever tested from UST Mamiya as well.

Stable enough to be played by the game’s best players yet available in flexes and weights that slow swing players will love, the Graphite Design Tour AD IZ shaft is perfect for almost any golfer looking to fine-tune their driver, fairway wood, and hybrids. The Tour AD IZ shaft is one of the most versatile shafts we have tested at Golfers Authority. How a player reacts to the shaft will dictate the performance it can provide but the smooth feel of the Tour AD IZ mixes seamlessly with effortless power. By using material typically reserved for only the stiffest and highest performing shafts, the Tour AD IZ offers tour-level performance in flexes as soft as senior and weights as low as 40 grams making this one of the widest fitting golf shafts available.

The Diamana D+Plus Limited Edition golf shaft uses Mitsubishi’s signature Material Difference to deliver power and precision for high swing speed golfers. The D+Plus Limited is an upgrade to the golf shaft used by some of the very best golfers in the world. The whiteboard profile has been tested at every level of golf and delivers every time. The D+Plus Limited Edition is a low launch, low spin golf shaft that will perform great in the hands of many and is a collectors dream if they are a Tiger Woods fan, or simply a fan of golf.

The Project X Evenflow Small Batch Riptide CB is ideal for the player looking for a mid launch, mid spin shaft designed with improved stability that builds on the widely successful "even bend" profile to provide unmatched feel.

The whiteboard line of golf shafts from Mitsubishi has been proven at every level of golf. I personally have gone in-and-out of a whiteboard profile every time. The performance often draws me in, the feel can push me away. The DF seems to balance both of these better than any previous whiteboard-style model. The DF gives you 100% of the performance you can expect from Mitsubishi with feedback that is more pleasant to swing and feels like it loads perfectly even when you make a less than perfect swing. If you are anything like me and have used whiteboard shafts with some success but found the feel to be less than ideal, the DF shaft may be your perfect blend.

The new HZRDUS Yellow is a backweighted low spinning shaft featuring a straight tapered midsection. This profile is perfect for players with a smooth tempo who want to reduce launch and spin rates. The backweighting allows for additional mass to be added to the head for increased ballspeed.

The Fujikura Ventus Black utilizes a Tour-inspired profile and the first to include Fujikura's all new VeloCore Technology in an accelerated taper, ultra stiff tip profile. Maximum energy transfer from the tip section boosts the clubhead's performance and a straight taper design enhances loading and feel. You can purchase the Fujikura Ventus Black in the following models: 6, 7, and 8.

If you are a player that constantly struggles with consistency off the tee, a better fit golf shaft will help. For players that have tried options but have never used a higher balanced point golf shaft, the Rogue Black will be a welcome introduction. The ability to create more club head speed and better contact at impact for some golfers will be a combination for more distance and better scores out on the course. The Rogue Black 130 M.S.I. is a golf shaft built with extreme attention to detail that expands the options of club fitters and golfers and can absolutely lead to higher performances off the tee for many players.

As the importance of the golf shaft becomes more well-known among amateur golfers, a need to be able to invest in one shaft and use it in any golf club each player chooses will become increasingly valuable. The Club Conex Uni-Fit system is the best connection for creating the ultimate versatility in your golf clubs and golf shafts. Many times you will see the best players in the world upgrade their driver head or fairway woods every single year while playing the same shaft for maybe a decade, now you can too and only invest in the aftermarket shaft one time thanks to Club Conex.

Golf shaft fitting is one of the most individualized experience golfers can go through. Understanding your options and how different shafts are designed to perform can help lead you in a direction that allows you to get the most out of your game. Golf shafts like the Oban CT can enable golfers to swing with less effort and provide explosive results due to their innovative compositions. Seeing a premium club fitter will always be the best way to know which golf shaft is right for your particular iron model(s) and your unique golf swing but leaving Oban off of your testing list would be a mistake. The Oban CT was a golf shaft that I had never used but that took me all of about 15 minutes to fall in love with it and place it into my golf bag.

The ZF combines the extreme stability that players have grown accustom to with the DF and whiteboard offerings from Mitsubishi with the BF, blueboard feel that many love. The ZF importantly will also fit almost any driver or fairway wood style and may enable you to continue to pound your favorite clubs with more ease and less stress and expense. As the rules of golf continue to limit golf club heads and ball speeds, performance gains can be found through proper fittings, especially in golf shafts and the ZF should be on any serious golfer’s list to test this season.

Building off the success of the original EvenFlow, EvenFlow Riptide is designed with improved stability that builds on the widely successful "even bend" profile to provide unmatched feel and maximum energy transfer. Riptide is a mid spin/launch design and features Torsional Stability Optimization which allows for an extremely stable shaft while maintaining the signature smooth EvenFlow feel.

The Tour AD XC is a standout option for golfers looking to maximize their power through impact and get the absolute most out of their driving performance. A bend profile that has been created for aggressive swingers, the Tour AD XC holds up no matter what you throw at it. The Tour AD XC is generally a low to mid launching shaft with low spin that helps players maximize their carry distances through better delivery dynamics in both drivers and fairway woods.

Project X HZRDUS Smoke Green PVD Driver Shafts offer the latest engineering marvel in the HZRDUS Universe. Being the stiffest HZRDUS shaft yet, Smoke Green is designed to reduce spin for the strongest swingers and is the first major shaft introduced using Hexcel’s HexTow HM63 fiber.
