| PACOIMA,
Calif. -- The Impulse
hybrid shaft by Harrison Sports surpassed the competition
and won second place at the 2006 PGA Championship,
the golf season's final major often dubbed ‘Glory's
Last Shot.' This year's runner-up to one of the
most coveted tour titles of the year played a Harrison
Impulse
shaft in his Sonartec hybrid club to shoot a 13-under
par 275.
The
Impulse
Hybrid shaft delivered another No. 2 money position,
as well as a third-place tie, this weekend at Boeing
Greater Seattle Classic on the Champions Tour. The
Impulse shaft performed exceptionally well for both
players, but the third-place winner in particular
had reason to rave about the Impulse. He set a new
course record on Sunday, shooting a 61 which included
two eagles, both set up by a shot with his Impulse
Hybrid shaft.
"Our
new Impulse
met the challenge this weekend, delivering dependable
performance shot after shot in one of golf's most
honored venues," says Mike Cheng, president
of Harrison Sports. "Our shafts feature true
innovation and have a long respected history of
providing increased distance and greater accuracy.
We're seeing solid performance from Harrison players
every week and we're very excited that some of the
world's greatest players are switching to Harrison."
Unique
in its design, the Harrison Impulse
incorporates a patent-pending Inlay Titanium Matrix,
a thin layer of titanium wrapped around the shaft's
tip section to reduce shaft torque and to increase
stability and accuracy. Hybrid-design

clubs
must often withstand greater stress at impact, so
enhanced stability is a critical design factor for
a shaft to resist distortion upon impact. In addition,
Impulse shafts possess a lower balance point and
produce a higher launch angle to make it easier
to get the ball up into the air. The Impulse's special
hybrid design and advanced titanium layer deliver
reliable performance shot after shot.
Impulse
graphite shafts are available as a Fairway Wood
or Utility Iron. The 75-gram Fairway Wood shaft
has a 44-inch length and 3.5 degrees of torque.
The 42-inch-long Utility Iron shaft weighs 85 grams
and has a torque of 2.5 degrees.
Designed
and made from high-quality graphite, titanium and
boron materials, Harrison shafts are repeatedly
among the top five graphite shafts brands played
on pro tours around the world. Technologically superior
and are eye-catching in appearance, Harrison shafts
have become a popular and growing choice among professionals,
clubmakers and golf enthusiasts.
