Boulder, Colorado – KBS Tour steel shafts start early in 2010 taking both the winner and runner-up positions at The Sony Open in Hawaii. The KBS Tour shaft made its debut in 2008 and carried in the bags of a growing number of today’s top-tiered players in golf’s world rankings.
It is well known that players are reluctant to make changes to their trusted irons, especially iron shafts. However, the KBS Tour steel shaft is steadily gaining in popularity on Tour. Kim Braly, FST’s veteran designer of the KBS Tour shaft explains why: “We stepped outside normal shaft design parameters to develop the KBS Tour shaft and we were able to achieve a smooth energy transfer along the shaft’s length which accounts for a softer ‘feel’ with a penetrating ball flight. It was a common sense approach which combined science and grass roots knowledge”.
Expect to see more news about KBS shafts from the professional golf tours worldwide.
