JUPITER, Fla. -Strategic Shaft Technologies, L.C. is pleased to announce that two-time National Long-Drive Champion and Long Drivers of America (LDA) Hall of Fame member Art Sellinger, through his Texas-based retail operation, Sellinger’s Power Golf, has become the latest Licensee of the patented SST PURE® Shaft Alignment System.
“Art Sellinger is a true golf pioneer. By founding and building LDA into a major force, Art has spearheaded the growth of the sport of long drive,” declared Gary Sheppard, director of global business development for SST. “SST’s technology will now be available through Sellinger’s Power Golf to power players that count on extreme distance and accuracy. These golfers can rely on our patented shaft alignment system to deliver outstanding performance results.”
SST PURE® shaft alignment is used by more than 200 professional golfers on the PGA, Champions and European Tours. With Sellinger’s Power Golf as the latest SST licensee, it is now available to LDA members and other power golfers seeking the best the golf industry has to offer.
“I have known about the SST shaft alignment system for some time, and with long drivers seeking to maximize every technological advantage under USGA rules, I am convinced that now is the right time to make this system available to the power-hitter segment of the golf market,” said Sellinger.
“Sellinger’s Power Golf distributes many leading golf shafts and club heads, as well as a wide range of other products, through our retail store and website. We also fit and build clubs for long-drive professionals, top amateurs and all levels of golf enthusiasts,” Sellinger added. “Having the world’s most respected shaft alignment system in-house will provide our customers the same benefits that so many PGA pros have enjoyed for years. We are pleased to be part of the SST family of licensees.”
Sellinger is a staff member of Adams Golf, makers of LDA’s official driver. He is a brand ambassador for Pinnacle golf balls and a member of the elite Pinnacle Distance Team. A recognized authority on power golf, Sellinger has also appeared in numerous TV commercials, starred in top-selling power golf videos and served as an instruction editor for Golf Tips magazine.

“The past decade has really been one of tremendous growth and validation of our PUREing process, and having Art Sellinger join our ranks is true testament to how far we have come,” said Dick Weiss, managing member of Strategic Shaft Technologies, L.C., and founder of the SST PURE shaft alignment process. “We are looking forward to working with Art and his team and participating actively in the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship in Mesquite, Nev., next fall,” Weiss added.
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.
