True Temper Shafts Shine on European and Nationwide Tours


MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Demonstrating dominance on professional tours around the globe, True Temper’s Dynamic Gold and Project X shafts grabbed victories on the European and Nationwide Tours this weekend, winning the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship and the Soboba Classic in San Jacinto, Calif.

 

On the European Tour, the English-born champion played Dynamic Gold SL shafts in his irons to score a three stroke victory and his second European win of the year.

 

Meanwhile on the Nationwide Tour, True Temper shafts claimed their 25th victory of the 2009 season, an unprecedented win percentage of 96 percent. The winner captured his first Nationwide Tour victory playing Dynamic Gold shafts in his irons and the new Project X graphite shaft in his hybrid club and five-wood.

 

“Time and time again this season, we have seen champions on the Nationwide and European Tours trust True Temper products to deliver consistency and accuracy,” said Craig Nichols, tour representative for True Temper. “True Temper is dedicated to providing professional players with the best equipment and technology on tour. Dynamic Gold continues to dominate the bags of the top ten players each week while the popularity of our new Project X graphite shaft has really exploded since its introduction earlier this season. ”

 

True Temper has led the golf industry as the number one shaft manufacturer in the world for more than 100 years, and Dynamic Gold shafts have won more events than all other shafts combined. Featuring a high-flex, tour weight design, Dynamic Gold steel shafts are the top-selling shaft in golf and are preferred by skilled players seeking a low, penetrating ball flight. The all-new graphite Project X shaft delivers superior cross-sectional stability and maintains the designed performance characteristics throughout the swing for consistent shot patterns. In addition, the new Project X shaft provides optimized launch profiles by matching frequency to specific weight, torque and ball flight for maximum player performance.
