Project X launches Titan Yellow wood shaft, pivotal to Clark’s CJ Cup victory

Published

on

Wyndham Clark made a pretty significant change ahead of his CJ Cup Byron Nelson victory. A change in driver shaft helped the 2023 U.S. Open champion return to the winner’s circle on the PGA Tour Sunday in Dallas.

Clark was one of the first players on Tour to try out and game the new Project X Titan Black shaft. He added it earlier this season on the TaylorMade Qi4D driver as he was able to consistently hit the spin numbers he was looking for.

But entering TPC Craig Ranch, Clark wanted even more performance off the tee, more specifically with his accuracy.

Step up, Titan Yellow.

“Our engineers have found a way to make the handle feel more elastic,” Jackson Bragg, Product Marketing Coordinator at True Temper Sports, told GolfWRX at Colonial. “Not necessarily soft, but a little smoother in the handle typically than some of our past Project X graphite. A firm midsection and firm tip. The Synex Technology. What it allows the player to do is feel a little bit more load in transition without losing the feel of the clubhead. What we saw, tighter dispersion, tighter ball speeds, and some of the guys on tour already loving it.”

Built with a specialized counterbalanced design (a higher balance point), Titan Yellow is engineered for modern driver builds, helping offset heavier heads and giving players more room to dial in swing weight, head mass and overlength setups.

The result is a low-launch, low-spin profile designed for clubhead control, speed, and stability for the more aggressive swinger. The Titan Yellow delivers a responsive feel in the hands with the tip stability needed for the faster swingers on tour.

“With the balance point change, we may see a little bit in higher launch, a little bit more spin, but these are still definitely a low, low profile all the way through,” Bragg added. “Biggest difference is that balance point change from Yellow. So potentially the builder last week wanted to optimize ball flight a little bit more, maybe a little bit more spin to hold the start line.”

Titan was engineered right in Project X’s headquarters in San Diego, California, and uses a unique EI profile as well as a new Synex Technology to provide Tour-level performance to those players who need it.

The EI profile features a handle section that is more flexible to give players the feel of the shaft loading during the swing. The mid and tip sections are firmer to add stability to the shaft for better dispersion.

Project X created a new Synex Technology to reinforce the shaft’s outer layers. Synex is a multi-axial carbon fiber that is used in the handle and mid-section to increase hoop stiffness and reduce deflection. This new carbon technology improves energy transfer and should help generate additional ball speed.

Available on Tour, the Titan Yellow comes in 60, 70, 80 TX flexes.

    Uhhh…; So Wyndham Clark plays with the kind of tees that I laugh at in the checkout lane at Golf Galaxy? ?!? Now there’s a story. (See picture.) I’d say pretty quickly that Wyndham Clark, multiple Tour winner, major champion, Ryder Cupper, probably knows a thing or two about teeing up driver that I don’t.

    Btw; really nice writeup of this interesting new TX-only driver shaft from TT/Project X, and kudos to Alistair Cameron.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping

Published

on

Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.

That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.

On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”

On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”

“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Check out Shipley’s full what’s in the bag and the rest of his wedge stampings here on “Inside the Ropes” from Colonial.
