MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Project X once again demonstrated its reputation as the premier player’s shaft by earning victories at both the Northern Trust Open and the Nationwide’s Moonah Classic this weekend.
Playing Project X steel shafts in his irons, the Northern Trust champion vaulted to number two in the Official World Golf Rankings and to the top of the FedEx Cup standings. At the Moonah Classic in Australia, the champion trusted Project X in his irons to lead the field in greens in regulation as well as using the new Project X Tour Edition graphite wood shaft in his driver.
In addition to winning the tournament, four players in the Northern Trust’s Top 10 played Project X in their irons and four players played the all-new Project X graphite shafts in their drivers. Overall, 116 sets of irons shafts manufactured by True Temper Sports were in play at the Northern Trust Open, with the closest competitor fielding only seven sets.
“This weekend’s results are just the latest in Project X’s growing victory tally,” says Don Brown, product development manager and designer of the new Project X shafts. “Project X iron shafts’ control and consistency have helped guide players to over a hundred victories worldwide. With the introduction of Project X in graphite, the best players around the world can now have the Project X precision and distance in their driver and hybrid clubs. The ultimate in spin control, Project X wood shafts reduce distance robbing backspin and provide pinpoint accuracy.”
The straight taper and short tip section of the Project X iron shafts provides maximum energy transfer with low spin rates required for penetrating iron shots. By combing this design platform with eight premium graphite materials, the Project X wood and hybrid shafts are quickly becoming known as the lowest spinning graphite shafts available. While Project X iron shafts remain a favorite among top tour players, Project X wood shafts also are gaining popularity with the biggest names in golf trusting Project X in their drivers.
