World #1 is honored with another award!

Kingston, Ontario – ACCRA Premium Golf Shafts is proud to be associated with the world’s No. 1 golfer, who has trusted ACCRA Premium Golf Shafts in his driver and 3 wood for several years.

ACCRA golf shafts have been the shafts of choice by PGA and European PGA Tour players during more than 50 Championships since our introduction in 2004.  ACCRA has been a part of major championship wins, WGC victories, Ryder Cups, President Cups and so many other exciting championships. Yet, this year has been something special!  ACCRA premium golf shafts has been fortunate to be the shaft of choice for several years by the world’s No. 1 golfer and recently crowned PGA Tour Player of the Year.

2011 has been a season to remember! One player has dominated golf with consistency…… The WGC–Accenture Match Play Championship, the BMW PGA Championship, the Barclays Scottish Open, and the Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals Classic at Disney makes up an impressive list of victories, but maybe more extraordinary is the long list of top 10’s. This has resulted in the PGA Money leader, European Order of Merit and Money leader, and now PGA Tour player of the Year.

“We have always considered the PGA Tour a great proving ground for testing new products and getting feedback that may help in the design of future shafts. The opportunity to get instant feedback from the world’s best golfer certainly adds credibility to our current shafts and new shaft models,” says Gawain Robertson, ACCRA Co-founder. “The world’s best golfer has switched his 3 wood several times in the past five years, yet has constantly requested and ACCRA shaft to be a part of all 3 woods that he tests. This has also been the same with his driver during the past 2+ years. We at ACCRA remain honored of our association with one of the true gentlemen of the game,” continued Mr. Robertson.

“ACCRA shafts are only available through the world’s very best professional club fitters,” said Dave Makarucha, ACCRA Co-founder. “To have the best golfer in the world using two shafts that are not available through mass retail and are always properly fit to the golfer to ensure optimal performance is an extremely unique situation. We at ACCRA pride ourselves of our dedication to the club fitting trade and truly believe that all golfers will benefit from this experience,” continued Mr. Makarucha.
