CHICAGO, IL, MARCH 24, 2016: OBAN remains a strong contender on Tour with top ten finishes in Orlando, Broussard and New Delhi. Playing the notably acclaimed Kiyoshi Tour LTD 60 in his Callaway XR driver, the 39-year old Swede posted a 14-under final score at Bayhill Club and Lodge to finish the tournament tied for third. Three strokes back, the 28-year old California native used the popular new Kiyoshi HB High Balance shaft in both his Nike Vapor driver and 3-wood to finish T6. At Le Triomphe Country Club, the T7 finisher swung a Kiyoshi Purple 100 hybrid in his Titleist 816 hybrid, and crossing continents, the Kiyoshi White was played by the T6 finisher at Delhi Golf Club.
“Our Kiyoshi shafts continue to make their mark on Tour,” said Victor Afable, OBAN President. “The growing popularity of the shafts, on the worldwide Tours and throughout our Club Fitter network, is a real testament to the performance they deliver week after week.”
Introduced in 2014, the Tour Limited represents the culmination of years of research and development. The shaft offers unprecedented control and extraordinary feel for players seeking to improve accuracy and distance.
OBAN’s Kiyoshi HB (High Balance) affords custom fitters a wider range of options for optimizing club head weight and shaft length combinations that deliver greater speed and distance. The shaft design preserves symmetry and stability throughout the golf swing, maximizing energy transfer to the ball at impact.
Kiyoshi Purple’s unique structure delivers high launch and low spin for longer distance and tighter dispersion. The shaft is fabricated using OBAN’s revolutionary Emersion Wrapped Frequency (EWF) Technology, enabling significantly improved torque control, bend points, and stability with less ovalization.
The Kiyoshi White is ideal for players seeking a mid ball launch and lower spin. The shaft is produced using OBAN’s breakthrough MultiPlex Design Technology (MPT) to effectively combine a softer butt section with a stiff tip and mid-section, reducing ovalization and stabilizing the shaft at impact.
