Memphis, TNâ?¦This weeks’ winner at the Senior Open Championship reminded us of his mastery of Scottish links style golf courses with his eighth career victory on those layouts. Yesterday at Muirfield in Gullane, Scotland the champion relied on Grafalloy’s Comp NT in his driver and fairway wood to capture his third Senior Open Championship in the last five years and his fifth overall senior major title.
"Comp NT is the pioneer golf shaft for carbon nanotube technology," says Graeme Horwood, vice president engineering for True Temper Sports. "The technology in Comp NT allowed us to increase the strength and improve the alignment of the carbon fibers in the shaft for premium material consistency." Grafalloy has since taken nanotechnology to the next level with the Epic shaft featuring proprietary Nanofuse material.

Also found in the winners’ bag on Sunday was the 100 gram C-Note hybrid shaft by Grafalloy. A popular hybrid shaft on every major tour, C-Note and C-Lite (85g) hybrid shafts incorporate proprietary Tri-Material Torque Control (TTC) consisting of three exclusive high modulus carbon fibers creating a unique torsional profile providing unmatched accuracy and premium feel. The low torque design produces a penetrating ball flight designed especially for today’s hybrid heads. These shafts are two of the many distinctively crafted products available exclusively through True Temper’s Tour Concept Program, a network of authorized golf equipment dealers who offer premium, custom-fitted shafts for the discriminating golfer demanding top-of-the-line performance.
Winning in Europe comes as no surprise for Grafalloy who is also the number one driver shaft brand on the European Tour through last weeks Deutsche Bank Players Championship. "We are especially proud of the success of the Grafalloy products on both the European and the Nationwide Tours. From ProLaunch Red and Blue, to the new Epic shaft, we are seeing a groundswell of support and victories which is very satisfying," comments Chad Hall, director of marketing for True Temper Sports.
