PACOIMA, Calif. — Harrison graphite shafts claimed the last Champions Tour trophy of the 2006 season by winning the Charles Schwab Cup Championship in Sonoma, Calif. This year’s champion trusted a Harrison Pro 2.5 graphite shaft to deliver peak performance and hold on to win the Champions Tour’s season-ending even. Shooting a 4-under 68, he coasted to a two-stroke victory over some of the toughest competitors on the Champions Tour. Meanwhile, the third-place contender climbed the money ladder with a Harrison Impulse Hybrid shaft.
All year long, Harrison shafts have provided extreme shot performance and grabbed Top 10 money positions on the Champions Tour with the Harrison Pro 2.5 shaft, Harrison Impulse hybrid shaft and other models.
"With wins on the PGA, Champions and European Tours, 2006 has been one of the most successful year’s in Harrison history. We’re proud that Harrison shafts have played such significant roles in delivering victories and earnings," says Mike Cheng, president of Harrison.
The Pro 2.5 series is extremely well known for providing players with consistent swing power and performance, and it is often favored found in the hands of Top 10 winners. Composed of the boron reinforced X-6200 graphite material, 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.
Harrison’s Impulse Hybrid shaft incorporates a patent-pending Inlay Titanium Matrix, a thin layer of titanium wrapped around the shaft’s tip section to reduce shaft torque, increase stability and improve accuracy. Hybrid-design clubs typically withstand more stress at impact due to turf contact, so enhanced stability is a critical design factor for shafts to resist impact distortion. The Harrison Impulse shaft also possesses a lower balance point and produces a higher launch angle to more easily get the ball airborne. Impulse shafts are available as a fairway wood or utility iron.
Harrison shafts are among the top five of the most-used graphite shafts in the world. Technologically superior and eye-catching in appearance, Harrison has become a popular and growing choice among professionals, clubmakers and golf enthusiasts. Harrison shafts are available from more than 1,500 dealers across the United States. For a dealer near you, please call 800.347.4646 or e-mail info@harrison.com.
