SUNLAND, Calif. — The latest in long drive shaft technology, the all-new Proforce V2 LD graphite shaft has created a stir among golfers wanting more distance in their drives, and it recently received high praise from professional golfer and Long Drive specialist, Danny Luirette of Bakersfield, Calif, who is well-known as the ‘The Longest Left-Handed Hitter in the World.’
The new Proforce V2 LD graphite shaft, designed by United Sports Technologies (UST®) and distributed exclusively by Horsepower Golf, features a longer-than-standard length to target golfers looking for an explosive release of energy in a longer shaft. The innovate shaft design is easy to load and has an explosive release of energy at impact, generating unparalleled power and distance.
"With my clubhead speed around 130 mph, and having to keep the ball in the fairway, shafts can be very tricky, but the V2 LD-3 at 45 inches has made the ‘risk and reward’ of hitting 370+ yard drives a big asset to my game," says Luirette, who is a Grey Goose Gateway Tour player and Long Drive champion. "The V2 LD is clearly the best and most productive weapon I’ve ever had the pleasure of using. This monster is long, straight, and easy to use."
In addition to his Gateway Tour play, Luirette regularly finishes in the Top 10 during the LDA World Finals; he is currently ranked in third-place on The Players Tour, Open Division, and he is No. 1 on the 2006 Players Tour Money List. He averages a driving distance of more than 351yards and has even hit a 411-yard-long drive in competition.
"The engineering that went into the new Proforce V2 LD Series 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 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 performance optimization and a feeling of total energy release at impact. The Proforce V2 LD satisfies that need with a very unique release that works for all player types.
