Black Gold Claims Merrill Lynch Shootout

November 14, 2006

Twitter Facebook Email

Memphis, TN … True Temper’s Frequency-Tunedâ?¢ Black Gold was in the bag of one of the winning team members at the Merrill Lynch Shootout in Naples, FL. The tournament, featuring 12 two-player teams, has become one of the most popular events during the so-called "silly season" between the end of the official PGA Tour® season and beginning of the next. The winners carded a final-round 59 in the scramble format to finish at 31-under par and force a playoff that they eventually won on the first hole of sudden-death.

Black Gold features proprietary Frequency Tunedâ?¢ technology. Incorporating True Temper’s proprietary "Gold" manufacturing process, each critical shaft parameter is held to exacting standards resulting in the first shaft ever to combine pinpoint frequency specification with precise weight tolerances and balance for superior repeatability and consistency.

Black Gold is available in both tapered and parallel versions in R, S, X and Tour X flexes. The shaft can be purchased in pre-tip trimmed Frequency Tunedâ?¢ sets of 3-PW or 41" parallel shafts that provide individual trimming options. The shaft is available for purchase through all major component distributors and top OEM’s. Additional information is available at www.ttblackgold.com or www.truetemper.com.

True Temper Sports is the leading manufacturer of golf shafts in the world and is consistently the number one shaft on all professional tours globally. The Company markets a complete line of shafts under the True Temper®, Grafalloy® and Rifle® shaft brands, and sells these brands in over thirty countries throughout the world. True Temper Sports is proudly represented by over 800 individuals in ten facilities located in the United States, Europe, Japan, China and Australia.
