MIAMI — Strategic Shaft Technologies announces the addition of The Greenwich Golf Fitting Studio of Greenwich, Conn., as its newest licensee to offer SST PURE®, the leading shaft-alignment process on the PGA Tour. Now offering SST PURE to golfers in the Tri-State area of Connecticut, New York and New Jersey, The Greenwich Golf Fitting Studio joins more than two dozen licensed SST PURE distributors in the United States, Australia, Korea, Japan, Ireland, France, Spain and the United Kingdom.

“We are very excited to welcome The Greenwich Golf Fitting Studio to our family of SST PURE clubmakers, which also includes The Complete Golfer in that region,” says Dick Weiss of Strategic Shaft Technologies, founder of the SST PURE shaft-alignment process. “Jacques Intriere and Greenwich Golf have demonstrated an unsurpassed commitment to quality and to providing excellence in the craft of custom clubfitting. The Greenwich Golf Fitting Studio is a great asset to golfers who are seeking the finest in custom-fit clubs.”

Founded in 1994, The Greenwich Golf Fitting Studio is a state-of-the-art, golf equipment fitting center that specializes in one-on-one custom-fitting sessions. In addition to the SST PURE technology, Greenwich Golf Fitting Studio features a Swing Dynamics Analyzer with Ball Flight Monitor that captures and processes critical clubfitting data such as ball speed, launch angle and backspin data. Owner and professional clubmaker Jacques Intriere is certified by the Professional Clubmakers Society (PCS) as a Professional Class "A" Clubmaker and Clubfitter and was named as the 2004 PCS Eastern Regional Clubmaker of the Year. In addition, Intriere has been recognized as the top clubmaker in the New York City tri-state area; received the PCS Elmore Just Award; and received Elite and Distinguished Clubmaker Awards from Golfsmith International.

“I want to stay at the forefront of clubmaking and custom fitting, and SST PURE allows me to fit the best clubs possible and to build the best clubs possible,” says Intriere. “SST PURE technology and the computer-generated graphics it produces clearly illustrate to my customers how their shafts perform before and after the PUREing process. There’s no other system like it. I want to stay at the pinnacle of my profession, and SST PURE will allow me to do that.”

To date, more than 180 PGA TOUR players have embraced SST PURE shaft alignment technology. 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.
