Most accurate driver at The Players Championship benefits from Aldila’s RIP in his driver
POWAY, Calif. – Led by their triple threat of patented shaft technology, Aldila crushed the wood and hybrid shaft manufacturer competition at The Players Championship to remain the #1 Shaft on Tour. After the numbers were tallied, “The Hottest Shafts In Golf” had 36 more wood shafts and 12 more hybrid shafts in play than the next leading shaft manufacturer, according to the Darrell Survey. This marked the 16th time in the past 18 weeks that Aldila has won both shaft counts on the PGA Tour.
With those statistics it was no surprise that four of the top five finishers at The Players were playing Aldila shafts including the second place finisher who ended the tournament as the Most Accurate Driver. Using Aldila’s RIP Technology™ in his driver, he finished the tournament with an overall driving accuracy percentage of 78.64 percent, which was well ahead of the field’s average of 62.54 percent.
“Aldila has developed three patented shaft design technologies that continue to prove themselves week after week on the PGA Tour,” said Stewart Bahl, Aldila’s Marketing Manager. “The three technologies, Micro Laminate, Stabilized Core and Reverse Interlaminar Placement each offer players of all abilities optimum performance to maximize the potential of their individual swing.”
Through the use of ultra thin layers of premium aerospace graphite matched with a proprietary thin profile shaft design, Aldila was able to eliminate ‘dead zones’ in the shaft for precise feel known as Micro Laminate Technology™ (MLT). Aldila’s Stabilized Core Technology™ (S-core) provides the golfer with stability through an innovative design incorporating a one-piece carbon fiber rib system. This helps the shaft stay more concentric during the golf swing thereby transferring maximum energy. Reverse Interlaminar Placement Technology™ (RIP) transforms the shaft from the inside out providing players with shot control. RIP® offers golfers lower torque, increased tip stability and better tip stiffness control.
Aldila’s patented shaft design technologies provide the perfect balance of applied art and engineering. They are continually on the leading edge of the golf world through their relentless pursuit of the next best innovation. They do the experimenting so you don’t have to. Pushing success to the edge and redefining how power should feel. Are you playing Aldila, or just graphite?
