MEMPHIS, Tenn. (April 9, 2013) – With Rifle shafts in his irons, the Valero Texas Open champion clenched a two-shot victory as well as an invitation to this week’s Masters Tournament and broke the winning streak for US players on the PGA Tour.
“Rifle shafts were designed and perfected on tour, so it is no surprise that we continue to see them in the winner’s circle on tours around the globe,” says Chad Hall director of product marketing and global tour operations. “This past weekend, we saw some good golf from players I expect will tear it up at Augusta this week.”
Truth in Numbers:
• The Valero Texas Open winner’s bag: Rifle 7.0 (long irons) and Rifle 6.5 (mid-short irons); Dynamic Gold S400 in his wedges
• 122 sets of True Temper shafts in play at Valero Texas Open
• 12 wins for shafts by True Temper on the 2013 PGA TOUR to date
Rifle shafts feature a stepless frequency matched design that ensures consistent flex progression throughout the set. The new Rifle blanks offer improved weight and balance consistency for improved trajectory and improved feel. Rifle is the perfect blend of tip responsiveness and tip stability for enhanced control. Rifle shafts are available exclusively through True Temper Performance Fitting Centers.
