Breakthrough In Fitting Players At All Levels
(Vista, CA – August 31, 2007) Fujikura embraces the U.S. Golf Association and the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews’ positive ruling regarding clubhead adjustability systems, an innovation that will make the game of golf more playable and enjoyable for players of all levels.
"While there is still evaluation about how this specifically affects us, Fujikura is expecting that some of the adjustable characteristics that might be allowed would be the use of technology that adheres the shaft to the clubhead, " says Peter Sanchez, President/COO of Fujikura. "As such, this ruling is a terrific breakthrough for Fujikura who for more than 25 years has been committed to creating products that enable players to be fitted with proper shafts.
"As the leader in material, design and process technology, which is proven by our Tour leadership and partnership with the world’s premier club manufacturers, Fujikura has the unique expertise and capabilities to optimize this ruling with those OEM partners and our outstanding Charter Dealer network," Sanchez continues.
"The real winner in this ruling is the general golfing public who can experience the next level of custom fitting opportunities and game improvement technology that professionals enjoy every week on Tour," he says.
Fujikura has been the #1 Wood Shaft Brand on the PGA Tour for the past six years and is the primary supplier to many national brand OEM’s offering both proprietary and brand product shaft designs. Fujikura products also can be custom fitted through its network of over 900 Charter Dealers. To learn more about Fujikura, visit www.fujikuragolf.com.
