Cobra Darkspeed X with "Tour AD for Cobra" shaft

[aveb4life]

I was up late one night this week and on a whim bought a Cobra Darkspeed X from Golf Partner. What's weird is that it has a "Tour AD for Cobra" shaft which I cannot find anything about. Wondering if anyone has any insight about it. I wrote to them and I am waiting a reply.

@aveb4life : Nothing new ... i.e. google it ... i remember a similar made-for- shaft in my Cobra King Ltd (for the Asian/ JDM market).

[google: "Tour AD" "Cobra" "King Ltd"] 

 

Similarly ... i had a Tour AD "made for" shaft in Ping K15 driver (JDM).

Callaway also has "Tour AD made for" shaft in recent drivers (Asian/JDM market).

 

Presumably yours = also a JDM model (given you bought from Golf Partner ... ie one of the largest Japan-market sellers for 2nd-hand clubs; usually very reliable source & often their 2nd-hand clubs = indistinguishable from new, and still in plastic wrap).

Enjoy.

Any additional feedback? I'm curious to what retail Tour AD shaft it's most similar to if you've hit others

A source tells me this is the AD-Di profile 🤷‍♂️. Cannot confirm. AD-DI is soft everywhere while still being an amazing shaft though.

Tour Edge Exotics have had GD Tour AD shafts in their metall woods around 2015 as well. this shaft was far away from any GD Tour AD Di shaft.
