MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The all-new Project X graphite shaft continues to impress the game’s best players with its performance and distance. Incorporating eight different premium composite materials and five of the most advanced fiber types in the world, the high-performance Project X shaft cashed in its second season victory while at the U.S. Bank Championship in Milwaukee, Wis.

Playing the new Project X graphite shaft in his driver, the winner of the U.S. Bank Championship shot a 13-under par and averaged a 308+ yards driving distance for the week. The new Project X graphite shaft was introduced this summer on tour and has continued to gain popularity with tour professionals worldwide. This past weekend, more than 40 Project X graphite shafts were in play on the PGA TOUR between the U.S. Bank Championship and the British Open.

“The new Project X graphite shaft is the result of more than two years of development which included countless hours of professional tour player testing,” says Bob Montgomery, manager of global tour operations for True Temper. “The Project X shaft is precision designed to deliver exceptional performance, consistency and distance, and we have pros on every tour asking to try the shaft and then putting it in play.”

The all-new graphite Project X shaft delivers superior cross-sectional stability and maintains the designed performance characteristics throughout the swing for consistent shot patterns. The shaft features Zonal Design Theory (ZDT) with three distinct zones utilizing unique and separate technologies to optimize performance in the butt, mid and tip sections. In addition, the new graphite Project X shaft provides optimized launch profiles by matching frequency to specific weight, torque and ball flight for maximum player performance.
 
The Project X Tour Issue graphite shaft is available for purchase through True Temper’s Tour Concept and Gold Certified Dealers and Certified Rifle Centers.
