Gastonia, NC – AccuFLEX Golf Staff Player, Steve Thomas, outdistanced and outperformed the Champions Tour field off the tee this past weekend at the Allianz Championship held in Boca Raton, Florida.
Thomas, using an AccuFLEX CREATION 65 shaft in his driver, finished 1st in Driving Distance, averaging 306 yards for the event. He is currently ranked #1 in Driving Distance on The Champions Tour for 2007 with 4 events now completed.
In addition to the AccuFLEX CREATION 65 shaft in his driver, Thomas plays AccuFLEX CREATION 80 shafts in his Fairway Woods and AccuFLEX ICON HL shafts in his hybrids.
"Steve can really put it out there," said Jody Baucom, President of AccuFLEX Golf shafts. "In addition to hitting it a long way, he’s a very talented all around player. We’re very pleased to have him on our Staff. This is his first year on The Champions Tour and we’re hoping for some big things from him in 2007."
About the CREATION Shaft
CREATION 65

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.
