SST Congratulates Mallon on PURE Open Victory

July 6, 2004

MIAMI — Strategic Shaft Technologies congratulates Meg Mallon, whose record closing round of 6-under 65 helped her gain her second U.S. Women’s Open title on Sunday.

Mallon’s closing round was the best round ever by a Women’s Open champion and turned her three-shot deficit at the start of the day into a two-shot victory.

“Meg Mallon was one of the first players on the LPGA to experience the benefits of SST PURE® shaft alignment,” SST founder Dick Weiss said. "She won her first week out with PURE aligned shafts in Canada two years ago and was kind enough to tell other LPGA players about our technology. To see her perform like she did all week and especially under the tremendous pressure of Sunday's final round of the U.S. Women’s Open was fantastic.”

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. 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.
