Project X Shafts - You Deserve Only the Best Shaft

Rifle Project X is known amongst many PGA Tour players as the premier shaft.  The same reasons the Project X is known to be a "better player shaft" though may also be its own Achilles heel.  After all, how many recreational players can match a swing like a PGA tour player?  Probably not many - the Project X is known to be a shaft suited by few.  But recently, Rifle crafted the Project X to be more suitable for the average player when it announced two new Project X shafts models, Flighted and the High Launch.

Rifle Project X was the first shaft that incorporated three technologies, Frequency Matching, Stepless Design and Rifling.  The design of the technology was very complex.  In fact it was so complex, it took over two years to market. The shaft was designed with a constant taper - definitely geared for the advanced player. The constant taper tips result in a higher kick point. A higher kick point means a lower ball trajectory and gives the advanced player more control and penetrating ball flight. Yes, this shaft is definitely geared for the accomplished player in mind.  After all, a higher kick equates to harder to launch if not in the hands of the right player. At a minimum, a club head speed is a must for a player to take full advantage of this shaft.

Later in 2006, Rifle came out with two new Project X shafts, the Flighted and High Launch.  These shafts would keep all the characteristics that made the Project X great, Frequency Matching, Stepless Design and Rifling.  But now the Rifle offered a shaft that would adjust to the iron loft in the Flighted.  A lower kick point, higher launch for long irons and higher kick point, lower launch for the shorter irons.  The Flighted was a hit.

Also in 2006, Rifle introduced the High Launch.  This shaft again would embody what made the Project X great with an added twist.  A longer tip parallel section and reduced weight would make this shaft "playable" for even the high handicapper by allowing a greater transfer at impact making for a higher launch.  The Project X had gone full circle.

Whether you are an accomplished player or high handicapper, there are now three models in the Project X family sure to fit most all players.  The Project X shaft now offers golfers of all abilities the opportunity to experience true greatness.
