Boulder, Colorado – KBS Tour steel shafts were in the champion’s bag last weekend during the Australian Open. Femco Steel Technology (FST), the company that developed and manufactures the KBS Tour Steel shafts, congratulates the winner for his outstanding performance.
Rob Cheng, Global Sales Director for KBS stated, “This is the second consecutive win at the prestigious Australian Open where the champion used our KBS shafts in his irons. We are very proud of the winners and for their confidence in KBS Tour steel shafts.”
Since their introduction to the professional tours worldwide in 2008, KBS Tour steel shafts continue to capture the attention of a growing number of players. More than 32 top-tier tour players have already switched to the new steel shafts. KBS Tour steel shafts have been used in full iron sets to win 34 professional tour titles worldwide and many more top 10 finishes.
Professional golf’s top players rarely change iron shafts unless there are tangible performance benefits. The tour successes for the players who have switched to KBS Tour iron shafts speak volumes about KBS performance.
“We stepped outside normal design parameters to develop the KBS Tour shaft,” says FST’s shaft designer, Kim Braly. “We were able to formulate a highly unique distribution of stiffness along the shaft’s length. The result is a smoother transfer of energy, a penetrating ball flight, and a softer ‘feel’ at the tip.”
Expect to see more news about KBS shafts from all of the professional golf tours worldwide.
