New-Roddio-shafts

Roddio Shaft Co. Just recently announced a new release coming December 1st to Japan. It's the second generation model of the popular Japanese Roddio Shaft, the new S series & M series shafts are designed to fit different player types. Lets have a look at who and what type of golfer they fit...

untitledThe S model Roddio shaft are specifically designed for the stronger player who plays their driver at 45" or less. Recently in Japan playing drivers at a longer length coupled with a specific design for shafts to be built at over 45.5 - 47" is a popular trend. The S Series is not of that philosophy it caters to the traditional length player. Versus the M series the S version has a stiffer tip to elicit strong play and promote tight dispersion and stability. It features a lower torque rating as well as Adaptive head speed by shaft flex + weight.

fgfThe New M model Roddio shaft was designed for golfers who enjoy playing a driver longer than 45 inches. They produced this shaft to work very well with smooth to average tempo's seeking ultimate distance in their drives. The shaft also puts more emphasis on helping the golfer square up the club head at the proper time, it also aids in suppressing unwanted back and side spin to help the player keep the results consistent. The torque is a bit higher than the S and the tip section while still stiff for today's high MOI drivers isn't as stiff as the S-Series.

Below we have the EI chart and the the various models laid out with full specs to better help you decide which fits your style of play and swing best, if you still don't know which shaft to consider feel free to Email a TSG fitting representative.

    Exciting! Although I’m kinda bummed as I just purchased a new driver with the W7A shaft. I only managed to get one round with it before our courses in Sweden shut down for the season. But I liked it and didn’t lose one ball, with some luck on a couple of holes, due to my drives.

    It doesn’t hurt that they make, in my opinion, the nicest looking shaft around :D

    One interesting note is that Roddio is no longer calling themselves Daiwa as is the case for most formerly Daiwa sub brands. They are now going under the moniker Globeride Roddio and Globeride ONOFF as part of their strategy to be a more “global” golf company.
