Look what we just got in the shop today and is on sale for $370! Some of you might have already heard of these shafts but the ones that haven't these are the new shafts from Graphite Design Tour AD series called the "BB" Blue Bullet.

it's a mid kick shaft with stiff mid section and tip and a moderate butt section

I guess greg norman has this shaft in his driver currently

I heard these shafts in identical heads produce 300-400 fewer RPMs than the GD DI.

I really wish I could text these bad boys out but for now I can not. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

Check out some pictures and let me know if any of you guys have hit these. I know they came out in Japan last year and I seen Ryo Ishikawa gaming them on his irons.

http://www.gd-inc.co...f/products.html <- check out that website to see the specs. its in japanese but you guys can figure out the #'s.

Very cool, but very pricey!

I just got done testing the AD DI and AD DJ for reviews here. If the BB spins LESS than the AD DI...wow. I would have no carry at all. For the high-spin guy, this could be a winner.

lol yes we need some spin dont we. maybe the name blue bullet came from its low penetrating ball flight? I will do a review comparing this shaft with the others if we get a demo somehow but until then I would love to hear anyone that has tested the BB out.

mudfish  I got to play with a guy with cerebral palsy yesterday and made his day... He hits from the forward tees, and was making fun of me after I had a TERRIBLE tee shot and even worse second, and he still had to wait for me to hit... He fell out of the cart laughing when I hit my 3rd 90º into the woods... I was hitting I was hitting my 5th before he hit his 2nd. WORST HOLE I'VE EVER PLAYED...
