Boulder, Colorado – KBS Tour steel shafts were played by the winner of 100th South African Open. The five- time champion of the event relied on KBS shafts in his full set of irons. 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 13th win for KBS in 2010 and the thirty-fifth since we introduced the shaft just three years ago. We are very proud of the winners and appreciate their confidence in KBS Tour steel shafts.”
Since their introducÌâåÂtion 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 35 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 distribuÌâåÂtion 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.
