‘The hottest shafts in golf’ has won both shaft counts on PGA Tour for 27 of past 31 weeks
POWAY, Calif. – After winning the wood and hybrid shaft manufacturer counts at the British Open, Aldila (www.aldila.com) continued their streak by capturing both counts at the PGA Championship. Aldila had 13 more wood shafts and 12 more hybrid shafts in play than their closest competitor, according to the Darrell Survey. On the season, Aldila has won both the wood and hybrid shaft manufacturer counts for 27 of the past 31 weeks and remains the #1 Shaft on Tour.
“The Hottest Shafts In Golf” also won both the wood and hybrid shaft brand counts on the Nationwide Tour. At the Price Cutter Charity Championship the second place finisher posted his best finish of the season after switching to Aldila’s RIP in his driver. He also finished the tournament 5th in Driving Accuracy with a 78.6 percent average, which was a 6.2 percent improvement over his Tour average of 72.0 percent.
RIP (Reverse Interlaminar Placement Technology™) transforms the shaft from the inside out providing players with shot control. The RIP provides golfers with lower torque, increased tip stability and better tip stiffness control.
The latest shaft in the RIP series is the RIP’d NV, which incorporates the best performance attributes from two of Aldila’s most innovative shaft designs. The ‘perfect feel’ and slim, stable shaft profile of the Aldila NV® and the unprecedented control and accuracy of the Aldila RIP®. The Aldila NV featuring Micro Laminate technology (MLT®) is the most popular aftermarket shaft in history. The revolutionary RIP Technology of the Aldila RIP has made it the hottest model on the PGA Tour.
“The RIP’d NV is not just long, it’s longer – not just straight, it’s straighter,” said Stewart Bahl, Aldila’s Marketing Manager. “While other shaft companies just change names and colors, Aldila technology will change your game.”
