New Accra TZ5 and TZ6 shafts feature “lower spin results than ever before”

Published

on

Accra’s TZ5 and TZ6 Shafts proved to be very popular amongst our members when they were showcased on our forums earlier this year, and new details of the shafts have now been released, with the company putting an emphasis on the word “feel” when it comes to the new additions.

The TZ5 shaft features a smooth mid-section and lower balance point which aims to provide players with maximum feel, while its lower torque than its predecessors looks to decrease spin significantly. The shaft targets those possessing very high swing speeds who are looking to reduce spin for greater control.

The TZ6 shaft, described by the company as a “spin-killing machine,” features a mid to high launch, with a focus on its ultra-responsive tip section. The new shaft from Accra combines a 2.0 torque with a powerful tip section, and the company has stated that with feel in mind, the tip is softer than some of their lightweight shafts.

With a higher launch and consistent flight a priority, Gawain Robertson, co-owner and founder of PGMC/Accra, stated

“In the softer flexes, the TZ6 is for the person that needs some help getting the ball in the air, but as you get to stiffer flexes, the torque starts dropping and it becomes more of a players shaft.

“So it sort of transitions from a shaft that helps the average guy get the ball in the air to a shaft that helps a tour guy get the ball in the air with low spin.”

The shafts which are being gamed by high-profile Tour players like Cameron Champ, Jason Day and Tony Finau are available now. Accra’s TZ5 Shaft is available in 60-90 gram driver shaft weights and as a 95-gram hybrid option. The TZ6 comes in 50-90-gram driver shaft option weights and as an 85-gram hybrid option.

    What are they made of, and how did they get the numbers?
    Another company who isn’t up front and honest about their materials and how they make them.
    And so we’re back to the the low-torque thing again are we, that companies like Aldila and Grafalloy had figured out a couple decades ago.

      What a stupid comment, you clearly know nothing about shafts.

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

Published

on

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
