I have been taking part in long-driving competitions for about 3 years, with reasonable success. I have won quite a few Remax events, including the regional finals in my area in 2001 and 2002. That means I will be taking part in the South African national finals during September this year. The area in witch I won is the Cape Town region- South Africa's 2nd largest city ( and home of Table Mountain ).

I am currently using my 3rd Harrison shaft - the pro 2.5 FL lite 50'' XX in a Ping TiSi head with only 4 degrees loft. Don't worry, I didn't break the other 2 shafts! Here's some more good news: Recently I ordered my first Penley shaft ( a Stealth 70 XXX 52'' ) from Ping WRX through Opal Sports SA; the local Ping agent. When the shaft eventually arrived after about 8 weeks, I was naturally very excited. It was also fitted to a Ping head. However, my new ''toy'' did not even last a week! Yes, I snapped the shaft while hitting balls on the range! Needless to say I was pretty disgusted in Penley, because I have been unable to break a Harrison in 3 years! I have cracked a Ping head with one of your shafts, though!

I am a very satisfied Harrison shaft user and would like to join your Long Drive Team. My longest drive in a Remax event is 345 yards ( at sea level no wind). Reading your web site have been very helpful and I must say that I'm very excited about your new Pro 2.5 Ti Tip 52'' shaft. I would like it fitted to a TiSi Tec 5.5 degree head.

I currently use the Harrison pro 2.5 FL Lite, X6200 (45'') shaft in a Yonex titanium head.I really like the low torque of this shaft. I would like the shaft that matches this, but will fit into the 3.5 tip heads of the Taylor-made 320 or 360.

I recently purchased a used Ping Titanium ISI driver with a Harrison Pro 4.5 FL Lite shaft. It felt good when I tried it and has outperformed my new Ping drivers with OEM shafts. I love it.

Thanks

Hi, I am currently using an older Harrison PRO 2.5 FL LITE on a Callaway Biggest Big Bertha. It has a 48" shaft. I love the distance and the feel of this combination. I have had it for about 3 years now and would like to upgrade to one of your newer shafts. What would you recommend and where is your nearest dealer to me? I am a 4 Hdcp.

Thanks, Steve Johnson

I have just had my Ping Ti driver shafted with a new Pro 2.5 Fl lite shaft and it is great! To say the least it is everything I had hoped for and a little more. I have a set of Ping I3's with Pings Aldella 350 shaft in it, another disappointment. I will be replacing these shafts and I want to know if you make a .355 tapered tipped shaft and where can I get some technical information on them. I am really looking for a low torque shaft with a high kick point. Do you have something that will fit the bill?

Thanks, Walter Brown

I work in a driving range here in New Zealand. The back fence that blocks the range is 220m (242 yards) and stands 12m high. With my driver (TaylorMade 360 8.5¡), with its standard shaft, I could, if I hit it OK, fly it into the base of the net.

I recently installed a Harrison pro 2.5 FL Lite, in S flex. At it's untrimmed length, 52", I could hardly swing the thing, so I decided to cut it down. Now, with it at 49 5/8", I can CARRY the back fence. Of course intruged by this extra distance I had to go measure where the balls were finishing. To my amazement the balls had finished 275m (303 Yards) from the bay I was hitting. an estimated gain of 45M. To anyone who is thinking about trying a long driver and is not sure, JUST DO IT.

Being only 5' 10", 120 pounds, I was a little aprehenseive, but I believe I will never go back.

Thanks Harrison.

I just wanted you to know about a round of golf i had recently. After many years of playing this game, I was frustrated because I had yet to break 80. There were many rounds in the low 80s but I could not seem to get into the 70s.

On June 16th at the Centennial Club in Acworth, Georgia, I did manage to score a 79. It was the first time I used a Smart driver or a full round. I have hit this club on the range and in some 9 hole rounds. I admit that a large part of my success that day was due to the fact that i played a lot of my second shots from the fairway. Like many golfers, I felt I might be giving up distance using the persimmon wood and a wound ball (Titlist Professional). This was not the case.

My playing partner that day was also impressed with the way the ball seemed to correct itself in flight on drives that were slightly mis-hit. I seldom see this with a metal wood. Even when I felt the ball was not hit perfectly, the dispersion was not penalizing me. my confidence level is very high now and I plan to continue using this club and promoting persimmon to the people I play with.

Also, the final whole was set up such that you could out-drive the fairway and land in a pond. I did not take any chances. I used my Classics 50 4-wood from the tee and then for the second shot onto the green. Unfortunately I missed the birdie putt.

In case any clubmakers should ask, I have the driver shafted with a harrison Pro 2.5 FL Lite and built the club to 44.25" and a weight of D-4. This is a great combination and I recommend it to players needing a firm flex. Thanks for keeping the persimmon clubs in the mix that golfers have to choose from.

Sincerely,

Al Carli

I am currently using your Pro 2.5 FL Lite shaft in my Titleist 975D Driver and 975F three wood. They are great. I just received my Ping TiSi driver with the Pro 2.5 Titanium shaft. It is the most unbelievable shaft I have ever used!!!
