“The hottest shafts in golf” wins wood; hybrid shaft counts at Shell Houston Open
POWAY, Calif. – As all eyes turn towards Augusta this week, the reigning Masters Tournament Champion currently leads the PGA Tour in driving distance with the help of Aldila’s latest shaft technology, the RIP®, in his Driver. Playing Aldila’s shafts in his Driver and 3 Wood last year at Augusta was instrumental for the defending champion to be the only player to post scores under 70 for the first two rounds. This season he heads into the Masters leading the distance category with a 302.1-yard average off the tee.
“RIP is Aldila’s latest shaft technology that provides a lower torque, increased tip stability and better tip stiffness control,” said Stewart Bahl, Aldila’s Marketing Manager. “After very successful testing on Tour with multiple wins, the RIP will soon be introduced through leading club manufacturers.”
The highly sought after RIP was key to helping “The Hottest Shafts In Golf” win the woods and hybrids shaft manufacturer counts at the Shell Houston Open this past week, according to the Darrell Survey. By winning both the woods and the hybrids counts for the past two weeks on the PGA Tour Aldila maintains its status as the #1 shaft on Tour.
Aldila’s leading shaft, the VooDoo® featuring their patent pending S-core Technology™, helped the second place finisher at the Shell Houston Open drive his way to his best finish of the season. Using the VooDoo in his Driver, 3 and 4 Woods, he finished the tournament tied for first in greens in regulation with an 84.7 percent. He tied for 25th in driving accuracy with 62.5 percent and 26th in driving distance with a 294.6-yard average.
The VooDoo’s stabilized core is designed to maximize energy transfer to the golf ball, yielding unparalleled distance and accuracy with each swing. It’s designed with a high modulus carbon stabilization rib that runs the length of the shaft, which keeps it more concentric, preventing shaft ovaling, deformation and wasted energy during the golf swing.
Aldila is the leading name in graphite golf shafts: It won golf’s Grand Slam in 2009, being the most used wood and hybrid shafts at every Major on the PGA Tour. For two years it has been the most played wood and hybrid shaft at every FedEx Cup Playoff event. Are you playing Aldila or just graphite?
