Gastonia, NC – AccuFLEX Golf reported on the success of their new Creation shaft on the PGA Tour at The Merrill Lynch Shootout this past weekend. AccuFLEX had four Creation shafts in play by the T-3rd Place Finishing Team, three Creation 80 shafts were being used in the team’s fairway woods and a Creation 65 shaft was used in the driver of one of the team members at the event. AccuFLEX shafts have found their way into several of the Top Tour Player’s bags this season making it "The Fastest Growing Shaft On Tour."
"This is an exciting conclusion to what has been an amazing year for AccuFLEX Golf on the Tour," said Jody Baucom, President of AccuFLEX Golf. "Our Creation shaft captured its 1st PGA Tour Victory at The Southern Farm Bureau and we’ve had nearly one hundred Top Ten Finishes this season with our Icon HL, Evolution and Evolution Lite shafts. It’s been a great year and we’re excited to see what the response will be to these new shafts we’ve introduced on the Tour and have now made available to the public."
The new Creation shaft by AccuFLEX features a unique long "butt" parallel section that tapers quickly in the bottom portion of the shaft. The Long "butt" taper stores the created energy longer, while the quick taper at the end acts as a "hinge" that enables optimal unloading of the shaft at impact, creating a higher launch angle, with decreased back spin. This new shaft profile, combined with our proprietary NANOMET technology, NanoMetal Polymer Composites, allows us to push the shaft design limits, with precise weight distribution and variable bending properties throughout the shafts profile, to accomplish a stable shaft that has unmatched feel, dispersion and distance producing characteristics.
