New for 2027, the Graphite Design Tour AD EK (“Extra Kick”) is a premium graphite wood shaft engineered for a mid/high launch with controlled low/mid spin. Its responsive profile is designed to help golfers create carry distance while preserving stability, accuracy, and a smooth feel.

Manufactured exclusively in Japan, the Tour AD EK pairs a stiff butt section with a firm mid-section and stable tip section. This EI profile supports efficient energy transfer and a powerful launch without sacrificing control.

The Tour AD EK uses premium aerospace-grade carbon fiber, including TORAYCA T1200G material in the tip section, together with Graphite Design’s AD Shield and Material Stiffness Integration technologies. The result is a stable, responsive shaft for players who want speed, carry, and consistent delivery.
