SUNLAND, Calif. (May 24, 2006) – Specializing in custom-fit clubs that go the distance, Horsepower Golf proudly unveils the all-new Proforce V2 LD graphite shafts, designed by United Sports Technologies (UST(R)) and distributed exclusively by Horsepower Golf. The new Proforce V2 LD Series — the latest in long drive shaft technology — features a longer-than-standard length to target golfers looking for an explosive release of energy in a longer shaft.
"We went to UST with a new shaft concept, and their engineers were extremely flexible and responsive to our needs. The result was the new Proforce V2 LD Series, a shaft that is quite innovative," says Pat Dempsey, owner of Horsepower Golf and 2002 RE/MAX World Long Senior Champion. "UST has helped a dream shaft become a reality, and I have to honestly say this all-new V2 LD Series is the most likeable shaft I have ever hit."
Dempsey explains that shaft performance in the sport of Long Drive has changed in recent years. Players are continuing to search for the perfect ball flight: the measure of spin and launch angle. Today, the focus is on desired weight, frequency spine alignment and a feeling of total energy release at impact. The new Proforce V2 LD satisfies that need with a very unique release that works for all player types. The shafts are made two inches longer than standard with an increased parallel tip section, providing for a perfect set-up for all golfers.
"The shaft is easy to load and has an explosive release of energy at impact. It’s like a bullwhip," says Dempsey. "When a whip unloads, the energy runs down smoothly and increases in speed until the energy releases at the tip. The V2 LD performs the same way, yet its torsional strength provides a lot of control."
