PACOIMA,
Calif. -- Well-known for its successful history
in Long Drive events, Harrison Sports swept the
Third Annual Orlando 2006 Players Tour Professional
Long Drive Competition this weekend. Champion Eric
Jones of Orinda, Calif., used a Harrison Striper
Long Drive shaft to drive shots of more than 300
yards into a 30 mile-per-hour head wind to capture
victories in both the Open and Senior divisions.
"The consistency of Harrison Shafts is what
allowed me to hit the low penetrating ball flight
needed to win in these high wind situations,"
says Jones, who is also a past champion at the RE/MAX
World Long Drive Championship on the LDA Tour. "The
low-torque, ultra-light shaft designs by Harrison
are proven to provide extreme distance and power,
and the Striper shaft performed extremely well in
some very difficult conditions."
"When
Harrison started designing shafts for Long Drive
competitors, we had one goal to win. We have created
many innovative shaft designs that offer Long Drive
champions the tools they need to win -- lower trajectory,
less weight and lower torque combined to provide
extra distance," says Michael Cheng, president
of Harrison Sports. "No other shaft manufacturer
can offer Long Drivers more model options and more
proven success than Harrison."

The
Harrison Striper Long Drive is composed of boron
reinforced X-6200 graphite and features a high flex
point and 3.5 degrees of torque. As the premier
shaft maker for Long drive champions, Harrison has
studied the dynamics of the sport of Long Drive
and discovered what features are necessary for hitting
the ball immense distances. These research and development
projects have lead to the production of Harrison's
Long Drive Series of shafts. All composed of the
highest grade of materials and designed solely for
increasing ball distance, these shafts offer a range
of options in trajectory and torque that will allow
a golfer of any strength to increase their driving
distance tremendously.
Designed
and manufactured from the best in graphite, titanium
and boron materials, Harrison shafts are among the
top five of the most-used graphite shafts in the
world. Technologically superior and eye-catching
in appearance, Harrison has become a popular and
growing choice among professionals, clubmakers and
golf enthusiasts.
Harrison
shafts are available from more than 1,000 dealers
across the United States. For a dealer near you,
