TRUE TEMPER TO OFFER SENSICORE™ IN DYNAMIC GOLD® AND RELEASE

MEMPHIS, TN - May 30, 1996 - True Temper has made SensiCore™ available in Dynamic Gold® and Release shafts. SensiCore is True Temper’s unique patent pending frequency dampened core that reduces the vibration of hitting a golf ball. Endorsed by Davis Love III, Sensicore is the ultimate vibration dampening in shafts. By dampening up to 70% of the vibration in a steel shaft, it reduces vibration better than graphite while having the consistency and accuracy of steel.

“Our product launch timetable for SensiCore has been accelerated.” says True Temper President Scott Hennessy, “We are responding to the positively overwhelming response of touring professionals and golf club companies.”

SensiCore is now available in a complete range of shafts to fit a wide range of playing abilities. Stratus™ is manufactured with a proprietary new alloy, NCM-180™. This revolutionary lightweight shaft features a versatile mid flexpoint that produces the perfect trajectory for most golfers. Dynamic Gold®, the overwhelming choice of tour professionals worldwide, is the ultimate player’s shaft with its traditional penetrating ball flight, unrivaled consistency, and tour proven performance. Release is a tip flexible, lightweight shaft designed for golfers who want to generate more power. The specially designed tip section provides a higher ball flight.
