FORT WORTH, TX – November 7, 2016 – UST Mamiya reports the winner of the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open relied on Elements Platinum 6F4 in his TaylorMade driver and Elements Chrome 7F4T in his TaylorMade 3-wood to earn his third PGA win and first victory in over a decade.
The winner finished with rounds of 60, 68, 71 and 65 (-20). At 47, the winner became the oldest Australian winner on the PGA Tour.
“UST Mamiya wants to congratulate the winner of the Shriners Hospitals for Children Open,” said Robb Schikner, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. “Elements Platinum is a product designed with no limitations. We use the best material available and our 25 years of carbon fiber expertise to develop a product for the best players in the world. The winner recently made the switch to Elements Platinum looking for lower spin and more stability. This is the 4th Professional victory for Elements Platinum and we expect more to come.”
Elements Platinum is designed with premium materials for the best in feel and stability with very low spin.
• Super High Modulus 90T carbon / 125 MSI
• Aerospace grade 90T continuous carbon fiber is used throughout the entire length of the shaft. The new material allows our engineer to make the shaft stiffer and lower torque without adding additional weight. The shaft is also slightly counterbalanced to work well with today’s heavier driver heads and the longer length of modern drivers.
• Toray T1100G = high strength and high elasticity
• This material is placed in the tip section to allow for better feel with additional strength and durability.
• Improved Stiffness Profile
• We are able to increase stiffness without sacrificing feel for aggressive swingers. In addition to using super high modulus material, we added more carbon fiber in key areas for additional stability and improved shot dispersion.
• Ion Plating (IP) creates a stunning and premium finish vs. traditional paint
• The raw shaft is put into a vacuum chamber where metal ions are emitted and bond to the shaft.
• The process takes extra time and is more expensive than traditional methods.
• This extra step is all done in-house, so we are able to ensure tighter control for the best quality.
