South African Golfer Trevor Immelman just won the 2008 Masters using the Epic Shaft, a new golf shaft made with nanotechnology. A shaft company named Grafalloy partnered with the nation’s leading supplier of nanotechnology enabled components to the $30 billion sporting goods industry, PowerMetal Technologies, Inc. to introduce The Epic Shaft. The Epic Shaft utilizes PowerMetal’s molecular nano-crystalline metals creating a product with incredible strength to weight properties. The result is the weight and feel of graphite for explosive distance and as much as a 35% improvement in shot dispersion. The Epic Shaft starts at $135.
