Designed with the Tour AD DI Hybrid profile in mind, the Tour AD HY hybrid is softer in the tip and mid-section and slightly stiffer in the butt section of the shaft, to promote a higher ball flight than the Tour AD DI Hybrid shafts. The easy to hit Tour AD HY hybrid shafts can be counted on to deliver pin point Accuracy and greater Distance, which is synonymous within all of the Graphite Design Tour AD shafts.
