We are excited to announce the new release (to dealer clubmakers only) of Graphite Design’s latest M.A.D. (Maximum Accuracy & Distance). This one will still incorporate the Torayca T1100G material technology that can also be found in the high end Tour AD IZ, TP, GP and M9003 shaft models but at a great price point. For all of those who have been scared off because of the high $$$ of graphite design shafts look no further….than Hodson Golf. We will keep you posted later this month when we have these bad boys in our demo lineup.
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.
The new Graphite Design MAD shaft is their response. Available in two strengths, the Graphite Design MAD Standard strength wood shafts are available in a 45g A and R Flex, 55g R and S Flex, 65g R and S Flex and a 70g S Flex and is designed for the intermediate to advance players.
The Graphite Design MAD PRO strength wood shafts are available in 65g S and X Flex and 75g X Flex and is designed for the advanced to professional players with higher swing speeds.
Make an appointment with your local professional golf club fitter and request that he write you a prescription for a new Graphite Design MAD shaft to cure your ball flight issues that may be holding you back from achieving Maximum Accuracy and Distance.
