| PACOIMA,
Calif. -- Playing and winning at the Home of Golf,
graphite shafts engineered by Harrison Sports claimed
a five-shot victory at the Alfred Dunhill Links
Championship at St. Andrews. The 11-year pro player
and recent Ryder Cup star shot 16-under par 271
to win at historic St. Andrews, using a Harrison
Striper
Long Drive graphite shaft in his driver and
a Harrison Impulse
shaft in his 2- and 3-hybrid clubs.
"The
international victory was very exciting, and we're
very pleased that so many pros around the world
trust Harrison shafts to provide the consistency
and performance they need to win," says Mike
Cheng, president of Harrison. "The Striper
Long Drive and Impulse
shafts are both composed of the finest graphite
materials, which provides players with a durable,
premium product that features constant swing power
and unmatched performance."
The
Striper Long Drive shaft is composed of boron reinforced
X-6200 graphite and features a high flex point and
3.5 degrees of torque. A unique design, new for
2006, Harrison's new Impulse Hybrid shaft incorporates
a patent-pending Inlay
|
Titanium
Matrix, a thin layer of titanium wrapped around
the shaft's tip section to increase stability, reduce
shaft torque and to dramatically improve accuracy.
Hybrid-design clubs must often withstand more stress
at impact due to turf contact, so enhanced stability
is a critical design factor for shafts to resist
impact distortion. The Harrison Impulse
shaft also possesses a lower balance point and produces
a higher launch angle to more easily get the ball
airborne. Impulse shafts are available as a fairway
wood or utility iron.
