2005-08-11 - Stepless Rifle® Shafts Sweep Global Double-Header

TORRINGTON, Conn. — Well-known as the world’s premium stepless steel shafts, Rifle® shafts wrapped up a global double-header this weekend with victories on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. Not only were Rifle shafts the winning iron shafts at The International on the PGA Tour, but Rifle steel shafts also claimed the victory in Perthshire, Scotland, at the European Tour’s Johnnie Walker Championship at Gleneagles.

Delivering unparalleled performance and making the winning difference, Rifle Project X steel shafts were the iron shafts of choice by this year’s Johnnie Walker champion, and were the same shafts which also won this year’s Mercedes Championships, FBR Phoenix Open, AT&T Pebble Beach, WCG-Accenture Match Play, and the BellSouth Classic on the PGA Tour.

“With our patented Rifling design, frequency coefficient matching and stepless engineering, Rifle-branded shafts have long been recognized as the most sophisticated steel shafts in the world, so it’s very rewarding to see players from pro tours around the world achieving victory after victory with Rifle shafts,” says John Lauchnor, president and CEO of Royal Precision. “Today many pros are looking for a level of optimized performance in steel shafts that they simply cannot get in the old, traditional stepped shafts which actually create weak points along the shaft that act as stress risers. But, the Stepless Design Technology of Rifle shafts eliminates the energy-robbing ‘steps’ for greater accuracy and a smooth, yet solid, feel at impact.”

Only premium Rifle steel shafts incorporate four unique technologies to provide the industry’s highest level of performance and consistency: Frequency Matching that perfectly matches a set of clubs through electronic calibration; Stepless Design Technology that eliminates the energy-robbing ‘steps’ found on most other steel shafts, and provides greater accuracy and a smooth, yet solid, feel at impact; Patented internal ‘rifling’ that transfers energy more efficiently than other steel shafts, reduces vibration and increases distance; and advanced Flighted Technology that features produces variable ball trajectories for different clubs within a single set.
