MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Number One shaft manufacturer in the world, True Temper Sports scored victories at the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational and the Legends Reno-Tahoe Open on the PGA TOUR, delivering the 31st and 32nd PGA Tour victories of 2009 for True Temper products.
Playing Dynamic Gold, a shaft with a 50-year heritage, the 33-year-old champion captured his 70th career victory and the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational title this weekend. At the Legends Reno-Tahoe Open, Project X steel shafts delivered accuracy and consistency to tie the course record (62) and to go on to claim first place on Sunday afternoon.
“While the wins always capture the headlines, one of the big underlying stories week after week is the overwhelming popularity of the True Temper brands on the PGA Tour,” says Scott Hennessy, president and CEO of True Temper Sports. “Nine of the Top 10 finishers at the WGC-Bridgestone played True Temper shafts in their irons. It’s apparent these pros desire a shaft they can rely upon for consistency, accuracy and distance, and True Temper shafts have been delivering just that for decades of champions.”
Featuring a high-flex, tour weight design, Dynamic Gold steel shafts are the top-selling steel shaft in golf and are preferred by skilled players seeking a low, penetrating ball flight. True Temper’s Project X shaft is another successful brand which is well-known a providing a dedicated constant taper rate per inch for each shaft in the set. Longer taper rate results in more energy transfer to the ball and the ball gets up faster and flattens out for a penetrating trajectory. Dynamic Gold shafts are available in tapered and parallel irons and parallel woods, while Project X steel shafts are available in tapered and parallel irons.
