Yes very interesting on the New Colors for the AD Iron Shafts, makes me want to try blue AD-115's. (IMG:style_emoticons/TSG_Smileys/tsg_smilie_surprise.gif)

The MD-7 & MD-6 have been a HUGE hit in recent months on the PGA Tour.

For those of you who don't remember Graphite Design is the #1 shaft co in Japan.

Graphite Design is the best for sure. I'm loving the P9003x. I need a little more time with it to write a review but that shaft is outstanding for high swing speeds.

Some prototypes but I didn't take any pics of them as they looked like standard Tour AD's with small words "Prototype" on them. (^_^)

Those black AD-115's are sweet, T. Its getting me thinking maybe its time to give graphite a go in the irons.

Anyone have any thoughts about these in comparison to the Nippon Steel 1150's? Not that I need to switch, its just you know how it is once the mind gets to wondering!

Another color which would look sweet is the red of the P9003 model. I'm sure some you fellow TSGer's would love that color as an option as well.

Last year GD international said they were tour only although a few small builder in Japan had them. Unless someone on here tried them at the show, I don't think anyone from TSG has reviewed them though.

Back when they were released T thought they were just a heavier version of the AD-95, but they cost about 2x as much as the Tour AD Pro, so I am hoping that a) the price comes in line with the AD Pro, or b) they have some nice technology packed in under the new paint!
