tour ad bb

[jdw2920]

LooKing for review how is the shaft and how does it compare to the tour ad mt or the elements chrome shaft.did anyone pick up distance or lose distance

[Kalicardplayer28]

I think the ADBB feels similar to the elements chrome but the Chrome has a stiffer butt section. Both great shafts but I was a little more consistent with the Chrome I just prefer the feel. I think you can t go wrong either way but I would bag the Chrome all day over the Tour Ad line. The AD MT will launch higher and spin more than the other two and will pair well with low spin driver heads or great in a fairway. It's more of a mid spin shaft.

Thank you did you get the chance to hit the mt with the spin would it make it harder to control I play a cut can't get rid of right spin. Looking to get something to tinker with in the sldr head before leaving for Florida at end of week.

This may or not help but Ive played the di, bb and mt all in driver. The mt fits right in between the di and bb. Closer to the bb in terms of performance with a touch higher flight and touch more spin but better feel. The di could play a bit loose for me but the mt is a perfect compromise for me, esp since i'm in my 40s now ... If you have a quicker transition and load the shaft more the bb would be a good fit. Good luck

[jdw2920]

Not catching the last part about quicker transition it autocorrected or something if have quicker tempo the mt would not work. I have a guy that has a mt instock but it's the 6 series and I feel I need the 7 but not sure.

[jdw2920]

I got it after re-reading so loading would make the bb better all the shats say they have mid kick points

[halliedog]

Not sure if this helps, but I hit an AD BB extremely well in a SLDR, just didn't want to shell out the 4 bills the fitter wanted. Another member here suggested I try the Chrome, and it felt and flew every bit as good as the BB and had similar ball flight, but it wasn't a SLDR head (913D), so I'm not sure how much can be attributed to head or shaft. Also, I hit the 2 about 5 days apart, so going from memory a bit.

They both loaded extremely well for my 105 SS and you could feel a kick, but neither ballooned or was out of control. Dispersion was similar.

[jdw2920]

Thank you I bought a 8f4t shaft to play in sldr but it was for a 3 wood so it plays about an inch too short I like the shaft and will get one it's just on the time crunch I'm thinking I can get the bb quicker. I would like to hit the mt but I'm sure the bb will be what I am looking for as far as lower trajectory

[halliedog]

From what I've been told by a reputable fitter you might actually get the UST faster than the BB. Of course this would depend on a number of factors, but food for thought.

I actually talked to Mr ennis and have been for some time he was on vacation and was going to build me one before he left but our messages didn't cross paths in time that day, but when I told him I was leaving for Florida and needed the shaft sooner than was planning he emailed me today and said he was at the web.Com event coming up in Utah and could build me one from the tour van and ship out so I thought that was pretty cool so it's in the mail from Utah.

Bobby Ennis is a top notch lad for sure.

[halliedog]

I've got to contact Mr. Ennis myself, as I've been told by several I should REALLY try the chrome, but my fitter didn't have it with TM tip. I did try it in another head and it felt/flighted great, but can't pull the trigger on a high $ aftermarket shaft without hitting it in my gamer.

Hopefully Mr. Ennis can advise on where to find a demo Chrome with a TM adaptor.

[jdw2920]

He is a super nice guy and wants to help make the right decision for everyone involved and said if once game the product if it's not the proper one switch out for the other as I was right on the border of the 70 gram or 80 gram shaft.

[Kalicardplayer28]

Bobby is legit as well as Danny from UST. Top notch customer service and they have great products as well. The Chrome is an awesome shaft.
