The graphite design Tour AD VF shaft review

The graphite design Tour AD VF is a shaft that has been talked about by Tiger Woods and Justin Thomas.
The Tour ADVF has the hardest shaft at the tip, but it is a slightly different model from the previous Tour AD, UB and XC.
This time, I would like to review the tour ADVF by weight.

 

The Tour AD VF

The Tour ADVF is made of a material called TORAYCA M40X in the hand part, and it is a shaft that suppresses descent delays and is easy to swing quickly, and the behavior from the turn is smooth and evenly bent.
From the tip to the middle of the shaft, the highly flexible and strong trading card T1100X is used, so it has high energy transfer and reduces the scattering of the hitting point and the amount of spin.
When I actually hit it, the amount of flex of the shaft was even, so I felt that it was easy to hit without habit and stable behavior.
The tip of the shaft is stiff, but it bends slowly and has a softness in the hand, so it is easy to get the timing and easy to use for a wide range of users.
The TOURAD VF is one of the easiest models to hit with a low trajectory, so it is recommended for users who usually have a lot of spin.
While the tip of the shaft is stiff and stable, it is fade biased, so it may not be suitable for users who are usually prone to slicing mistakes.

TOUR AD  VF 60 S

Shaft Specs
Weight: 65g, Torque: 3.3    
The TOURAD VF 60S was the softest of the shafts, and I had the impression that it was easy to get the timing.
The tip of the shaft has low torque, so I think it has the advantage of being able to swing boldly.
Compared to the 60S from other manufacturers, I think the VF is in the stiffer category.

TOUR AD  VF 60 X

Shaft Specs
Weight: 67g, Torque: 3.3    
At 60X, the amount of flex of the entire shaft decreases, but I had the impression that it could be shaken off quickly.
The amount of bend in the softest middle of the entire shaft is also reduced, so I felt that it was good not to lag behind the speedy turnover.
This spec is recommended for users who want to take the timing and swing speedily with the bend of the shaft.

TOUR AD  VF 70 S

Shaft Specs
Weight: 74g Torque: 3.0 
The 70S is a low-torque shaft with a heavy weight and a flex rate close to 60X.
The 70S is difficult to shake off without power, but I think that the VF with a stiff tip and a sense of stability is suitable for short woods.
The Tour AD VF is a fade-biased model, but it is a recommended shaft for users who like high balance.
Please give it a try!
