PACOIMA, Calif. – Acquiring his third Top 10 finish of the season in only five starts, Rory Sabbatini finished in second place at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am while playing the Harrison Pro 2.5 and Impulse Hybrid shafts. Harrison, whose shafts are famous for providing greater distance with pinpoint accuracy, also brought home a seventh place finish with their Striper Tour.
Harrison shafts have been celebrating a great start to the 2006 season, already with five top finishes on the tour leader boards and a win at the Third Annual Orlando 2006 Players Tour Professional Long Drive Competition, their consistency in increasing power and performance has been unmatched by many other shaft manufacturers in the market.
"We think it’s important to provide golfers with the best equipment for real game improvement. Our shafts are manufactured from the highest quality materials available and incorporate some of the most sophisticated technological advances in the golf industry over the last 15 years," says Michael Cheng, president of Harrison. "We think our results on tour and in other competitions speak for themselves."
The Impulse Hybrid shafts utilize Harrison’s patent pending Inlay Titanium Matrix technology that incorporates a thin layer of titanium around the shaft’s tip section to reduce shaft distortion upon impact. The result is increased stability, reduced shaft torque and dramatically improved accuracy. In addition, Impulse Hybrid shafts are engineered with a lower balance point and are tuned to produce a higher launch angle to make it easier for golfers to get the ball up into the air. The Impulse series comes in two versions: fairway wood (3.5* torque, 44-inch, 75-gram, 0.335-in. tip diameter) and Utility (2.5* torque, 42-inch, 85-gram, 0.370-in. tip diameter).
The Harrison Pro 2.5 series shafts are built with the finest graphite materials, which provide players with a durable, premium product that features constant swing power and unmatched performance. The Pro 2.5 series shafts are composed of boron reinforced X-6200 graphite and feature mid- to high-flex points and between 2.5 to 2.7 degrees of torque, and are available in varying weight options with flexes ranging from L/A to S/X. The Striper Tour features a 3.0 torque rating and promotes a higher launch angle with less spin, characteristics usually sought by better golfers. The low tip torque of this shaft also leads to one of the tightest shot dispersions on the market. The Striper Tour is available in 62g, 72g and 82g versions with flexes from A to X.
Harrison shafts are available from more than 1,000 dealers across the United States. For a dealer near you, please call 800.347.4646 or e-mail info@harrison.com.
