August 2, 2006

Memphis , TN…Fresh off of its victory at the Nationwide Tour’s Price Cutter Charity Championship, the new ProLaunch Red captured another title at the E uropean Tour’s Deutsche Bank Players' Championship of E urope on July 30 th . The Champion, armed with ProLaunch Red, fired a final round 67 for a four round total of 263 and a comfortable four shot victory. The win places the champion well inside the top 10 on the E uropean Ryder Cup points list as well as in the top 50 in the Official World Golf Ranking.

Developed for players seeking a flatter, penetrating trajectory, ProLaunch Red combines the launch monitor tuned performance of ProLaunch technology with key performance attributes from the original ProLite 35, the most popular ultralite shaft of all-time. The shaft incorporates Grafalloy’s proprietary Micro-Mesh™ tip technology to strike the perfect balance of tip stiffness, stability and spin control while preserving critical feel for valuable feedback. The shaft can be found through all major aftermarket distributors and top O E M’s. For more information on ProLaunch Red visit www.grafalloy.com.

“Because of the quick success the shaft has enjoyed since its introduction, more and more players are switching to ProLaunch Red each week,” states Mike Perry, Grafalloy E uropean Tour Representative. “With so many players around the globe having trusted ProLite 35, it’s a natural fit for them to switch to this innovative new design built from the heritage of the most popular ultralite shaft of all-time.”
