This win resulted in the 26th global professional tour win for a Graphite Design model shaft within the 2015 professional tour season.
The Tour AD MT is designed to provide a player with Maximum energy Transfer and superior Accuracy and Distance.

The Tour AD MT design is based on the very popular Tour AD DI model and utilizes premium, aerospace quality 50t carbon-fiber and the Toray Company’s 3rd generation of Nano-alloy material technology known as “DI Technology” in the tip section of the shaft.
The Tour AD MT features a stiffer mid-section and slightly softer tip than the Tour AD DI. This design feature will produce optimal launch and spin characteristics in today’s modern low spin drivers.
