Just one week after the Senior British Open Champion claimed his fourth Champions
Tour major title with Comp NT in his bag, yet another Grafalloy shaft has come
forward to grab the spotlight. Coming into the final round of the US Senior
Open, there were several golfers considered to be in the hunt. However, as
the sun set on NCR Country Club Sunday evening, someone unexpected was hoisting
the trophy. After a record-shattering 8-under final round, the US Senior Open
Champion, armed with Grafalloy’s ProLaunch in his driver and 5-wood,
blew past the field to claim his third Champions Tour major.
As has been the case for most of the year on the Champion’s Tour, Grafalloy
was the shaft of choice with 111 shafts in play. ProLaunch led the way appearing
not only in the bag of the Champion, but in the bags of 35 other top pros.
Comp NT also had an impressive showing with 17 shafts in play.
ProLaunch’s trajectory-optimizing design is among
Grafalloy’s most
popular shafts on the Champions tour each week. Featuring a proprietary
micro-mesh™ tip
section and launch monitor tuned technology, ProLaunch helps most golfers
achieve optimize their launch conditions for increased distance off
the tee. For more information on Grafalloy shafts visit www.grafalloy.com.
