MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Providing tour-proven accuracy and consistency, shafts by True Temper Sports scored a terrific triple victory this weekend on the PGA, European and Nationwide Tours.
At the John Deere Classic, the PGA TOUR champion played Project X in his irons to score more birdies than any other player and to win the event by shooting a dramatic 26 strokes under par. Project X also proved to be the force to be reckoned with in Europe at The Scottish Open. The winner played Project X graphite shafts in his driver, fairway woods and hybrid as did the event’s fan favorite runner up who scored an all important invitation to next week’s British Open by using Project X not only in his driver, but throughout his entire bag. The final victory in the triad of wins came on the Nationwide Tour, as the winner of the Ford Wayne Gretzky Classic played Dynamic Gold shafts to top the event’s money list.
“Every tour win is a testament to the countless hours of designing, engineering and testing that goes into perfecting True Temper shafts,” says Scott Hennessy, president and CEO of True Temper Sports. “When you look at the numbers-137 sets in play at the John Deere Classic, 143 sets at the Ford Wayne Gretzky Classic and more than 100 Project X graphite shafts in play across all three tours-there is no doubt Dynamic Gold and Project X are preferred by the best players in golf.”
The straight taper and short tip section of the Project X iron shafts – available in tapered and parallel tip – provides maximum energy transfer with low spin rates required for penetrating iron shots. The new Project X graphite shaft combines a stable butt section with a constant taper bend profile and reinforces the tip to reduce spin by up to 500 RPM more than other low-spin Tour model competitors. Project X graphite is available in woods and hybrids.
Dynamic Gold is the top-selling shaft in golf and is preferred by skilled players seeking a low, penetrating ball flight. It is available in tapered and parallel irons and parallel woods.
