BELLINGHAM, Wash. – The No. 1 graphite iron shaft on the PGA, Champions and LPGA tours, SteelFiber shafts by Aerotech Golf won the Florida’s Natural Charity Classic on the Symetra Tour, and scored second-places at the Valspar Championship on the PGA Tour, and at the ISPS HANDA New Zealand Open on the PGA Tour Australasia.
Playing SteelFiber i95 graphite shafts in her irons, the seven-year pro captured her third win on the Symetra Tour with a 10-under par final round. On the PGA Tour, the 25-year-old Long Beach, California native finished strong in the last three rounds, shooting two 66’s and a 68, for solo second-place, playing a SteelFiber i95 in his 3-iron. Overseas, SteelFiber i95 shafts landed another second-place – a T2 finish at the ISPS HANDA New Zealand Open.
“Delivering the power of graphite and the stability of steel, SteelFiber graphite iron shafts continue to demonstrate game-changing performance in professional tour events all around the world,” says Chris Hilleary, president of Aerotech Golf. “Whether played in irons, woods or wedges, or whether played by a pro or amateur, SteelFiber shafts deliver unique performance enhancing benefits, such as greater vibration dampening; reduced fatigue; more consistency and accuracy; as well as the stability normally associated with steel shafts. It’s a true revolution in how we play the game.”
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.
For the 2016 season, SteelFiber shafts delivered 20 wins on pro tours around the world as well as won the coveted CME Race for the Globe Trophy and 2016 Money Title on the LPGA 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. SteelFiber shafts won the highly prized FedEx Cup in 2012.
