What's the step pattern? I have Adams Redline irons and the 85g shafts in those have 5 of 3/4" and the rest are 2". I'm wondering if this is the shaft used by TaylorMade and Adams as well. My shaft just has Made in China on the butt and a white sticker with a code. At least if the step patterns were the same we'd have a bit more information.

1. It's not the same as the standard TM 85g shaft, used in recent irons and also Adams Redlines. That has five steps of 3/4" and the rest 2".
