MEMPHIS, Tenn. – This weekend, shafts designed and manufactured by True Temper Sports claimed victories at the PGA TOUR’s World Golf Championship – Bridgestone Invitational and Turning Stone Resort Championship and the Nationwide’s Wichita Open.
The Bridgestone champion shot a 64 on Sunday with Dynamic Gold shafts in his irons to win the tournament and secure a spot on the U.S. Ryder Cup team. Also playing Dynamic Gold in his irons, the first-time PGA TOUR winner at the Turning Stone Resort Championship shot a 6-under 66 to deliver a dramatic, come-from-behind victory.
Meanwhile on the Nationwide Tour, the young Wichita Open champion fired a 20-under par with Project X in his irons and the new Project X graphite shaft in his 5-wood to get his first victory.
“With Dynamic Gold and Project X, True Temper has won an amazing 33 events this season on the PGA TOUR,” says Chad Hall, director of global tour operations for True Temper Sports. “Each week, these shafts are in the bags of not only the tournament champions and the majority of the top 10 finishers, but also the players throughout the entire field. Just this week, we had 70 sets in play at the Bridgestone Invitational, 111 sets at the Turning Stone Championship and 145 sets at the Wichita Open. These counts are a clear demonstration of True Temper’s leadership position on the global tours.”
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. 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. By combing this design platform with eight premium graphite materials, the Project X wood and hybrid shafts are quickly becoming known as the lowest spinning graphite shafts available. The Project X graphite shaft is available in woods and hybrids.
