EPIC ON THE RISE --- PROLAUNCH RED DOMINATES
April 30, 2007


MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The revolutionary Epic™ shaft by Grafalloy featuring groundbreaking Nanofuse™ material continues its rise on Tour with eleven (11) shafts in play this week at the EDS Byron Nelson Championship and the Henrico County Open.  “The word is out on Tour that Epic is long, offers incredible feel, and is noticeably more accurate than other graphite shafts,” says Chad Hall, director of marketing for True Temper Sports.  “It is encouraging to see the positive Tour response in such a short period of time to this revolutionary technology.”

 

The Epic shaft utilizes molecular nano-crystalline metals creating a product with incredible strength to weight properties.  The result is the weight and feel of graphite for explosive distance and as much as a 35% improvement in shot dispersion.  Visit www.epicshaft.com for more information about the new Epic shaft from Grafalloy.

With multiple Tour wins since its introduction last year, ProLaunch Red continues its command with twenty-nine (29) shafts in play this week on the combined tours.  Grafalloy’s proprietary Micro-Mesh™ tip technology combined with premium engineered high-modulus carbon fiber material means cutting-edge designs and superior performance from ProLaunch Red, ProLaunch Blue, and all of Grafalloy’s products.
