TORRINGTON, Conn. — Well-known as the world’s most advanced steel shafts, Rifle® iron shafts captured the top money and swept first-, second-, third- and fourth-place at the Bay Hill International in an unprecedented display of dominance.
In his first tournament since switching to the Rifle Project X iron shafts, this week’s champion won his first PGA event of 2006 and his first tournament since 2004. Providing unparalleled performance and advanced flight technology, Rifle Flighted iron shafts generated a career-best finish for the second-place runner-up, and fired the lowest round of the week (9-under-par 63) for the third-place player.
"With our patented Rifling design, frequency coefficient matching and stepless engineering, Rifle shafts are recognized around the world as the most sophisticated steel shafts in the game today," says Ray Lucas, senior vice president of Royal Precision, manufacturer of Rifle shafts. "The Bay Hill Invitational was an exciting tournament, and we’re very pleased to see so many PGA Tour players turning to premium Rifle-branded steel shafts to achieve a higher level of performance."
Only premium Rifle steel shafts incorporate four unique technologies to provide the industry’s highest level of performance and consistency: Frequency Matching that perfectly matches a set of clubs through electronic calibration; Stepless Design Technology that eliminates the energy-robbing ‘steps’ found on most other steel shafts, and provides greater accuracy and a smooth, yet solid, feel at impact; Patented internal ‘rifling’ that transfers energy more efficiently than other steel shafts, reduces vibration and increases distance; and advanced Flighted Technology that features produces variable ball trajectories for different clubs within a single set.
