The word nanotechnology gets thrown around a lot these days, but I
wasn't quite ready to see it in the description of a piece of golf
equipment. A company called Grafalloy teamed up with PowerMetal
Technologies (they have nothing to do with Iron Maiden, I checked) to
create the EPIC golf
shaft. It uses, and get ready for it,
molecular nano-crystalline metals to make it a lot lighter and stronger
than the graphite currently holding your driver together. It sounds
wacky, but apparently it works, since Trevor Immelman rocked one all
the way to the green jacket yesterday at The Masters. As expensive as
it sounds, the shafts are actually available to the average Joe for
only $135 at their website. You're going to have to shell out some
extra dough to get a grip and head attached to it, but it might be
worth it if only so you can say, "Hey buddy, can you pass me my driver
with the molecular nano-crystalline metal shaft? Thanks." |
