ACCRA DyMatch System

The Evolution of Golf shafts!

For 2009 ACCRA will revolutionize "fitting" golf shafts.

Feed back from the PGA Tour Representatives whom "fit" the best players in the world along with suggestions from a wide selection of the world's best club fitters whom fit all levels of golfers on a daily basis, was the inspiration for this new product from ACCRA.

The fact is most golfers are "fit" to a lighter weight driver shaft, a slightly heavier fairway wood shaft, and an even heavier hybrid shaft. Assuming the player uses a similar shaft in each of their clubs the general geometry of shafts is that as a shaft gets heavier its torque gets lower and the tip deflection becomes stiffer.

This becomes clear when analysing Tour player's choice of shafts. Many players choose shafts with very different profiles for their driver, fairway woods, and hybrid. ACCRA is going to change this!

Now consider the Dynamics of the golf swing and the golf club.

Drivers are longer than other woods and hybrids, players develop greater club head speed with drivers.

The CG (center of gravity) of a driver head is farther from the axis point (where the shaft fits into the head), therefore when a ball is struck with a driver lower torque and stable tip section is required to maintain the stability of the head/shaft combination.

Fairway wood heads are smaller and strike the ball at a lower rate of speed. There is a necessity for the geometry of a fairway wood shaft to aid the golfer in getting the ball in the air. As the CG of a fairway wood head is closer to the axis point, a slightly higher torque and tip deflection will maintain stability.

Hybrids follow this same pattern, the trick is to continue a constant flow of consistency from driver shaft to fairway wood shaft to the hybrid, considering that a hybrid shaft is traditionally a .370 tip OD.

So how do engineers at ACCRA develop this program to make it a consistent "Match"? Currently all shafts are measured statically. Specifications are given as the shafts are in "blank" form. The fact is that golfers do not swing a shaft alone and many shafts dynamics change dramatically once they are tipped and butt cut to length and then inserted into a head.

ACCRA has tested this entire line of shafts "dynamically". Using a base (high MOI) driver head and the latest fairway woods and hybrids. We have developed a line of shafts that are perfectly dynamically matched! This means that once assembled into heads, cut to length (tipping is not required, although certified club fitters may adjust based on the head of choice), and gripped,our shafts were designed to Match with respect to torque, tip deflection, EI curve , and flex when measure during a swing.

Using the latest in cannon, robot, and human testing with the most technologically advance launch monitors and high speed cameras, ACCRA has created 3 distinct Series of shafts that identically Match from driver through hybrid, ensuring the golf a perfectly, Dynamically Matched set.

Dynamic measurements are the only specifications that really matter, ensure your club fitter offers Dynamically Matched shafts by ACCRA, DyMatch is designed to ensure all of your woods and irons are perfectly Matched, you deserve a perfect set!
