Kim wins again with SST PURE®
November 14, 2005
MIAMI – Armed with an aggressive attitude and a set of SST PURE aligned clubs, Christina Kim won her second career LPGA tournament on Sunday at The Mitchell Company Tournament of Champions. Firing confidently at pins the entire week, Kim closed with a 67 on Sunday to claim a one-shot victory.
The benefit SST PURE Shaft Alignment delivers to an aggressive player like Kim, who plays custom-fit Henry-Griffitts clubs, was apparent down the stretch. Knowing that she could go after each shot without incurring the effects of shaft-induced mis-hits allowed her the confidence to play her own game.
“All of these girls know how to win because they've done it before,” Kim said of the tournament’s winners-only field. “And to know that I can beat them, it's an incredible feeling.”
Overall, more than 200 professional golfers on the PGA, LPGA, Champions and other tours have enjoyed the distance, accuracy and performance benefits of SST PURE shaft-alignment technology. In 2005, PGA Tour players using SST PURE-aligned clubs won more than $55 million. Using proprietary computer software and sensitive data-acquisition sensors, the SST PURE shaft-alignment process analyzes the structural irregularities that exist to some degree in every golf shaft and locates the shaft’s most stable orientation. By assembling the club with the shaft in its PURE orientation, off-line bending and twisting of the shaft are minimized and impact repeatability on the center of the clubface by the golfer improves up to 51 percent. The process can be performed on existing clubs, new clubs or new shafts — steel or graphite — from most major manufacturers.
Headquartered in Miami, Strategic Shaft Technologies, LC, was founded by clubmaker Dick Weiss, who was the creator of the SST PURE® process. The patented SST PURE process of club assembly — deemed in compliance with USGA standards — locates each shaft’s irregularities and aligns the shaft to neutralize them, so that each club bends in the direction it should — straight down the target line. Upon having his shafts SST PURE aligned, a player receives a personalized computer printout confirming the process and an SST PURE shaft label for every shaft that has been PUREd. The SST PURE process of golf shaft alignment is available at SST PURE licensees around the United States and internationally.
