PACOIMA, Calif. — The consistency and power of Harrison graphite shafts continue to pay off for Champions Tour players. This week, Harrison Pro 2.5 shaft delivered a 13-under-par 275 and captured second-place at the Ford Senior Players Championship at TPC Michigan, the third major of the year for the Champions Tour. With the finish, the Harrison player earned a check for $375,000, the largest of his professional career, and it was also his second win of the 2006 season.
"Harrison graphite shafts have had a lot of success this year, and we came within one stroke of notching a major win," says Cory Roberts, Champions Tour representative for Harrison Sports. "This week’s runner-up played a Pro 2.5 60 graphite shaft in his driver and finished with a very close second-place, hitting 12 of 14 fairways on Sunday. Another veteran player with a Harrison Striper Tour shaft scored high marks for Harrison by finishing in a tie for ninth."
The Pro 2.5 series is well known among PGA professionals for providing superior distance and accuracy, and it is often favored by Top 10 winners. Composed of the boron reinforced X-6200 graphite material, the Pro 2.5 provides players with consistent swing power and unmatched performance. The Harrison Pro 2.5 series shafts feature mid- to high flex points and 2.5 degrees of torque and are available in weight options from 50 grams to 95 grams and flexes from L/A to S/X.
"We’re very pleased to again see such a strong finish on the Champions Tour," says Mike Cheng, president of Harrison Sports. "The Pro 2.5, as well as our other shaft models, continue to provide consistency and accuracy to players, most of whom are true legends of the game."
Harrison shafts are designed and manufactured from the finest in graphite, titanium and boron materials and they have secured their place among the top five of the most-used graphite shafts in the world. Harrison’s reputation for quality was first established among golf clubmakers and golf specialty shop owners whose needs for exacting specifications in custom fitting required uniform frequencies and manufacturing consistencies. Technologically superior and are eye-catching in appearance, Harrison shafts have become a popular and growing choice among professionals, clubmakers and golf enthusiasts.
