Longest & Straightest Drivers Use Fujikura.
(Vista, CA – August 4, 2009) Fujikura has won the Driver shaft brand at last weeks Buick Open PGA Tour event.
“We couldn’t be happier with the performance and growth of our Motore F1 franchise. It’s the leading contributor to our success on Tour this year allowing us to be the #1 Driver Shaft Brand for the ninth consecutive year,” says Dave Schnider, President/COO of Fujikura. “”
“Having had the Longest Driver and the Straightest Driver use ours shafts at the Buick is always a nice side bar to the week. The longest driver averaged 332 yards over a field average of 300. Additionally, the straightest player hit 71% of fairways versus the field average of 51%.” says Mike Sposa, Fujikura Tour Representative and former PGA Tour pro.
The new Motore series shafts are available now through Fujikura’s Charter Dealers across the United States and around the world.
The Motore Series shafts feature Fujikura’s proprietary and proven H.I.T. which stores more energy during the downswing and releases the energy just before impact, while maintaining the stability of the entire club. The result is greater distance and accuracy in all clubs. Motore’s “smart” shaping of the tip enables these benefits while minimizing weight, allowing the tip end to accelerate faster than conventional tips.
Fujikura’s Tour leadership was highlighted by being the leading driver shaft brand at all the Tour majors in 2008. The brand’s dominant leadership position reinforces Fujikura’s position as the PGA Tour’s #1 Driver and Wood shaft brand for the last eight years.
Fujikura 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.
