Carlsbad, CA  – Pro’s Choice Golf Shafts, Inc., the exclusive distributor of Graphite Design golf shafts in North America, is pleased to announce the introduction of the new Graphite Design x L.A.B. Golf Tour AD RAIL Putter Shaft, developed exclusively for L.A.B. Golf.

The Tour AD RAIL marks Graphite Design’s first-ever putter shaft, combining the performance legacy of the Tour AD brand with L.A.B. Golf’s uncompromising focus on stability, precision and premium feel.

L.A.B. Golf has seen a meteoric rise in popularity among professional and recreational golfers alike over the last several years, thanks in large part to the company’s commitment to high-quality craftmanship and engineering. The new Tour AD RAIL Shaft developed by Graphite Design continues this commitment with product tolerances that are among the tightest in the industry.

No compromises were accepted during development. The objective was to engineer the stiffest and most stable putter shaft to date, providing maximum stability and precision while preserving the feel and feedback golfers expect from a premium graphite shaft.

The result is the highest CPM, lowest deflection and stiffest shaft ever tested by L.A.B Golf. The Graphite Design Tour AD RAIL putter shafts utilize ultra-high-modulus 50-ton carbon fiber, a premium aerospace-quality material offering exceptional strength-to-weight properties and helping deliver outstanding stability and consistency throughout the putting stroke.

Every Tour AD RAIL shaft is manufactured by skilled artisans at Graphite Design Inc.’s factory headquarters in Chichibu, Japan, utilizing the advanced materials, precision manufacturing and attention to detail that have defined Graphite Design products for decades.

The RAIL name also reflects Graphite Design’s Japanese heritage and is inspired by the Japanese word “ireru” (いれる), which in the context of golf means “to sink a putt.”

The collaboration brings together L.A.B. Golf’s innovative approach to putter stability and face control with Graphite Design’s expertise in advanced carbon-fiber shaft engineering, resulting in an ultra-premium putter shaft engineered specifically for L.A.B. Golf putters.

The new Graphite Design x L.A.B. Golf Tour AD RAIL Putter Shaft will be available beginning September 10, 2026, with a custom upcharge price of $399.00.
