CHICAGO, IL, MAY 17, 2016: OBAN’s flagship Devotion and Kiyoshi shafts posted four top ten finishes in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL and Raleigh, NC over the weekend. Playing three Devotion shafts in his TaylorMade driver, 3-wood and hybrid, the 45-year-old Czech Republic native finished T9 at TPC Sawgrass.
At TPC Wakefield Plantation, the North Carolina native used a Kiyoshi Black 65 in his Titleist 915 driver scoring 11-under to finish in third place. Finishing T10, the 24-year-old British Columbia native played a Kiyoshi Tour Ltd in his TaylorMade M1 driver and a Kiyoshi Black 90 in his TaylorMade hybrid. Also T10, the 41-year-old Oklahoma native swung the Kiyoshi White 95 in his TaylorMade hybrid.
The Devotion Series is OBAN’s most diverse offering, with shaft weights ranging from 46 – 86 grams. The design pattern remains consistent throughout the series, while kick points and torque vary by weight class.
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 Black was designed using a straight taper profile. The shaft utilizes OBAN’s exclusive Emersion Wrapped Frequency (EWF) Technology, a lower torque, and extra stiffness in the butt section of the shaft to offer a low spin and a mid-launch trajectory.
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.
