BELLINGHAM, Wash. – Three professional golfers on three of the world’s top pro tours cashed in this weekend, playing SteelFiber graphite iron shafts by Aerotech Golf. Delivering the power of graphite and stability of steel, the world’s No. 1 graphite irons shafts claimed a four-place tie on the PGA Tour, a six-place tie on the European Challenge and a nineth-place tie on the LPGA Tour.
Playing SteelFiber i80 irons in her irons, the 26-year-old South Korean player who was once nominated for a Best Female Golfer ESPY Award grabbed a T9 finish at the Blue Bay LPGA. Meanwhile, Australian golfer and former English Challenge champion played SteelFiber i110s in his irons for a T6 on the European Challenge Tour at The Foshan Open. On the PGA Tour, a 10-year Tour veteran used a SteelFiber i110 shaft in his hybrid club and tied for fourth at the McGladrey Classic.
“SteelFiber graphite iron shafts are delivering Top 10 money on every major tour in the world, and it’s extremely rewarding to see the this technology make such an impact in terms of performance,” says Chris Hilleary, president of Aerotech Golf. “SteelFiber shafts combine the performance characteristics of graphite shafts which produce greater vibration dampening and less fatigue with those of steel shafts which provide more consistency. It’s a game-changing innovation.”
