The TPT Red Fairway is not a new shaft, it was introduced in 2020. I discussed TPT’s manufacturing process in the review of the TPT Red Driver shafts many years ago. This short review covers measurement of shafts sent to me by TPT engineering to be included in my database.

We have seen carbon fiber shafts with outer wraps of stainless steel wire, here we have a shaft with in inner wrap. The Metal mesh technology is only in the tip of the shaft. This is not the first time Mitsubishi has integrated metal into their shaft prepreg. I have fond memories of the TINI wire used in the KuroKage shafts. Mitsubishi tells us the metal mesh added weight without having to add material which would have change the balance of the shafts. And like the TINI wire, the mesh adds a responsive straighten to the shaft. You will find the Mitsubishi MMT iron shafts offered as an upgrade by several of the major brands.
