TPT Releases Latest Range of Innovative Graphite Shafts
TPT Golf has confirmed the launch of an innovative range of graphite golf shafts. Using 'Thin Play Technology', carbon fibre materials and a parented manufacturing process that was developed by their parent company, North Thin Ply Technology SARL, TPT Golf is seeking to reach higher standards in the production of shafts.
The patent pending manufacturing process enables golf shafts to be made with exceptionally accurate fibre placement in a highly uniform way around the shaft. This method creates a shaft with no spine and overcomes the inconsistencies sometimes seen in golf shafts produced by the more traditional table rolling methods. TPT golf shafts provide exceptional feel for the golfer leading to more accurate shot dispersion, low spin, and increased distance.
Biomechanical specialist Jean-Jacques Rivet, has been instrumental in the development of the range and their performance validation.
JJ has also been a huge influence in the development of a custom shaft fitting process known as “Unique to Me”, that will allow TPT Golf to offer fully customized shafts to individual players from the Tour and to amateur golfers around the world.
Leading golf coach David Leadbetter has also been involved in providing strong technical support during the development of the range leading. He has now entered in to a partnership with TPT Golf to establish a shaft fitting network linked to the David Leadbetter Academies around the world.
David commented “In a sport where feel is everything, TPT shafts offer a level of feel to golfers that is unique. This is the most technically advanced golf shaft for distance and direction and even makes your bad shots better.”
This combination of three extensive knowledge bases, TPT Golf, JJ Rivet and David Leadbetter – all experts in their own field - has meant that golf shafts are being looked at in a whole new way.
For the first time ever a golf shaft can be designed that starts with the physical capabilities of the human body and goes on to reflect the coaching being received on the practice ground.
TPT can now provide the best performing products for the Tour player and amateur golfer, bringing a consistent and precise product into the golf shaft market place.
The range of TPT Golf™ shafts has been designed to make the fitting process as simple as possible. As shown in the chart below, there are models to suit players with any swing speed.
The first series of golf shafts, the ? series (Omega) will be available in fitting centres around the world from mid-November 2016 to be joined by the Σ series (Sigma) - characterised by reduced torque - in the coming months.
2017 will see the launch of a further line of lightweight shafts designed to suit juniors, seniors and women players. For more details contact us on: E Mail: [email protected]. Twitter @TPTGolf. Facebook/TPTGolf. Web Site: www.tptgolf.com.
