SteelFiber Shafts Win at Wyndham

SteelFiber graphite iron shafts, designed and manufactured by Aerotech Golf, grabbed top honors this weekend as well as a revered place in golf history. SteelFiber shafts won the Wyndham Championship on the PGA TOUR and carded a low score of 59.

Playing SteelFiber i95 graphite shafts in his irons, the 2012 FedEx Cup champion joined an elite club, shooting a 59 during the first round at the Wyndham Championship. The 37-year-old pro from Nashville became only the ninth player in PGA Tour history to achieve a sub-60 score. His history-making scorecard showcased 10 birdies and a 176-yard eagle. The other members of the 59 Club include Justin Thomas (2017), Adam Hadwin (2017), Jim Furyk (2016 & 2013), Paul Goydos (2010), Stuart Appleby (2010), David Duval (1999), Chip Beck (1991) and Al Geiberger (1977).

“We’re very excited about this win and we offer our congratulations to the champion,” says Chris Hilleary, president of Aerotech Golf. “It’s been said that the champion started fast and finished strong. Finishing strong is what SteelFiber is all about. SteelFiber shafts deliver stability and increased distance but, unlike traditional steel shafts, the Tour-winning SteelFiber technology also reduces the risk of injury, lessens aggravation of existing injuries and decreases player fatigue. SteelFiber shafts allow players to play their best for longer and finish strong.”

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.

Aerotech Golf shafts are available as custom options with many nationally celebrated golf club manufacturers such as PXG, Callaway, Titleist, TaylorMade, Ping, Cobra, Bridgestone Golf, Wilson, Cleveland Golf, Miura, Srixon, KZG and Nakashima Golf. Aerotech Golf shafts are also available through professional golf clubfitters around the world. Aerotech Golf is a proud supporter of the Association of Golf Clubfitting Professionals (AGCP) and the International Clubmakers Guild (ICG).
