Available in 3 weights 85 grams (M3 flex), 95 grams (M4 flex) and 105 grams (M5 Flex). Each shaft offers a 4” parallel tip section to enable professional clubfitters the ability to manipulate flex, flight and stability to maximize the fitting experience. This combined with the option of soft stepping or hard stepping makes this shaft revolutionary as a constant weight shaft with a vast array of fitting options.

ACCRA driver shaft used to win the RBC Canadian Open

The North Carolina State grad from Durban, South Africa won the prestigious event carding a 30 on the back nine of the final day. He led the entire field hitting 84% of the fairways for the week.

In 2013, he was custom fit by Cool Clubs in Scottsdale Arizona to an ACCRA Tour Z ST 55 M4 shaft in his Titleist driver and since that time, he has consistently been in the top 5 of driving accuracy on the PGA Tour. The 4th place finisher leads the PGA Tour in top 10 finishes, ranks 22nd on Tour in driving accuracy and was also professionally fit by Cool Clubs and uses a similar customized ACCRA Tour Z ST 55 M4 shaft in his Bridgestone driver, with different tipping.
