KBS Gaining Popularity with Amateur Players
BOULDER, Colo. (July 23, 2013) – The KBS Tour C-Taper shaft won another prestigious national amateur tournament this past weekend. In a dominating performance, the winner of the 2013 U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship never trailed for more than two holes all week. This is the second national championship in under a year won with KBS shafts. The winner of the 2012 U.S. Amateur Championship also used the KBS Tour C-Taper shaft.
This amateur player currently plays collegiate golf and was fitted into KBS Tour C-Taper shafts by TaylorMade fitting professionals at the TaylorMade Performance Lab at Olympia Fields. The KBS product line utilizes a simple and effective system for golfers and fitting professionals to use.
Inspired by Tour player feedback, the KBS C-Taper shaft is designed for players requiring a low piercing trajectory and superior shot control. Packed with signature KBS technology, the KBS C-Taper shaft maximizes energy transfer, for a crisp feel, while optimizing shaft diameters in the taper and tip areas for low trajectory and spin control. Independent testing proves the C-Taper shaft to average 5% more distance versus the market leader as well.
Winning the 2013 U.S. Amateur Public Links highlights the growth of KBS shafts among players on non-professional tours. The three different winners of the 2011, 2012, and 2013 PGA Professional National Championship trusted KBS in their irons. Also the 2012 U.S. Amateur and 2012 British Amateur trusted the KBS Tour C-Taper and KBS Tour shafts respectively.
The KBS Team congratulates the champion of the 2013 U.S. Amateur Public Links. With this win, the talented young golfer will play in the 2014 Masters, where KBS Shafts will look for a second consecutive victory.
