Leading golf shaft manufacturer True Temper has recently released a new version of their Project X shaft series, the PXv 39 (v for velocity). Aided by the use of TeXtreme Spread Tow carbon fabrics, the PXv weighs just 39 grams and is the lightest shaft introduced to the market.
“We have combined ultra-high modulus torsional plies with TeXtreme to provide a stable core from which to build the PXv 39. This ultra light, ultra stable core has enabled us to create a sub 40 gram golf shaft that is not only durable but provides the penetrating ball flight that golfers have come to expect from the Project X franchise” says Don Brown, Project X product development manager and designer.Leading golf shaft manufacturer True Temper has recently released a new version of their Project X shaft series, the PXv 39 (v for velocity).
