BELLINGHAM, Wash. – SteelFiber graphite hybrid shafts, designed and manufactured by Aerotech Golf, helped to reel in a victory at the Bass Pro Shops Legends of Golf on the Champions Tour. SteelFiber shafts also hooked second-place and landed a T-10 finish.
Playing SteelFiber hls75 graphite shafts in his hybrid clubs, the four-time career winner on the PGA Tour and his partner finished at 19-under 159 in the 54-hole event, and they each received $230,000 for their first win on the Champions Tour. In addition, a pro on the second-place team played SteelFiber i125 in his sand wedge, and a player with a T10 finish used SteelFiber i110 graphite shafts in his irons.
“Unlike traditional steel shafts, SteelFiber shafts allow players to play their best for longer periods of time and finish stronger,” says Chris Hilleary, president of Aerotech Golf. “SteelFiber shafts provide stability and consistency, shot after shot. But SteelFiber’s most innovative performance benefits are that they also provide golfers with greater vibration dampening, reduced player fatigue, and increased distance.”
SteelFiber shafts provide superior performance through innovative composite engineering that combines a high-modulus graphite core with 59 miles of steel fiber lacing the shaft surface. The shaft’s graphite core provides vibration dampening, increased clubhead speed and maximum distance, while the steel fibers produce optimum weighting for a solid feel at impact and add stability and control for pinpoint accuracy.
Last year, SteelFiber shafts delivered seven wins – three on the PGA Tour and two each on the Champions and LPGA Tours. The previous tour season was equally successful with SteelFiber chalking up five wins on the PGA TOUR and two more on the Champions Tour. Players with SteelFiber shafts routinely rank high on the PGA Money List, Official World Golf Rankings and the FedEx Cup Season Points. In 2013, for example, SteelFiber players ranked No. 2 and No. 3 in the FedEx Cup Season Points and ended overall as No. 3 and No. 5 on the PGA Money List.
