Overview/Technology-

The Graphite Design Aura is quite possibly the only shaft that literally will fit into any swing  frequency.  Each Aura features a unique dynamics profile that is suitable for a particular swing.  The Aura has 4 models to choose from, each noted by a color.

Red = Power | Pro Launch | Do you need better ball spin? | Low Torque | Low Trajectory
Gold = Strength | Mid Launch | Do you need better accuracy? | Mid Torque | Mid Trajectory
Blue = Consistency | High Launch | Do you need more distance? | High Torque | High Trajectory
Green = Balance | High Launch Plus | Do you need more carry? | Highest Torque | Highest Trajectory

Each color represents suitable for a swing profile - from Red (accomplished player looking for performance and control) to Green (players looking for launch, distance and carry).  The Aura is a very versatile shaft sure to please most player demands.

Actual Player Feedback-

“I have a guy with 110 swing speed hit Aura Pro in the new Taylormade R7 Limited 9.5* and just smoked it!!”

Pros/Positives-

The color coded shaft coupled with a very reasonable price (in many cases under $50), makes it a no-brainer for the price conscience golfer looking to take the guesswork out of shaft fitting.  Graphite Design also has one of the best customer service of all shaft makers.

Cons/Negatives-

Probably still unproven from the standpoint of the sheer numbers that play the shaft.

Overall Rating-
