MIAMI — Strategic Shaft Technologies, L.C., makers of the patented SST PURE® Shaft Alignment System, announces it will attend the 2008 PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, Fla., to be held January 17, 2008 through January 19, 2008. SST will be at booth #4401 and showcase the shaft alignment technology now used by more than 200 players on the PGA and European Tours and which is available to golfers of all skill levels through custom clubmakers and manufacturers in North America, Europe and Australia.
"We just completed our eighth consecutive year on the PGA Tour, and our SST PURE shaft alignment technology has been used by more players than ever before. However, one of our main missions is to help educate average golfers to the benefits of SST PURE shaft alignment," says Dick Weiss, founder of SST. "While Tour players have appreciated the playing benefits of the PUREing process, recreational golfers can benefit even more. The PGA Merchandise Show always provides an excellent opportunity to show the SST PURE process to PGA professionals, industry leaders and potential new SST PURE licensees from around the world who in turn will educate their customers."
The SST PURE Shaft Alignment Technology scored a record year this season for earnings on the PGA TOUR. The unprecedented success included 21 PGA Tour victories, two major championships, the Canadian Open and the Order of Merit for the second consecutive year. Total earnings exceeded $94 million, surpassing the 2006 mark by $24 million.
Using proprietary computer software and sensitive data-acquisition sensors, the SST PURE® shaft alignment process analyzes the structural irregularities that exist to some degree in every golf shaft and locates the shaft’s most stable orientation. By assembling the club with the shaft in its SST PURE® orientation, off-line bending and twisting of the shaft are minimized and impact repeatability on the center of the clubface by the golfer improves by up to 51 percent. The process can be performed on existing clubs, new clubs or new shafts — steel or graphite — from all major manufacturers.
