(Nasdaq: SPGC) (“SPG” or the “Company”) specializing in advanced shafts using proprietary carbon fiber technology, announces the signing of PGA TOUR Champions player Ken Duke as its first player to represent the Newton brand. Duke has chosen to use the new Newton Motion Shaft in his driver during the upcoming 2024 season.

The added flexibility of the carbon fiber gives the impression the golfer doesn’t need to exert excessive force during the swing.Kinetic Storage Construction – A proprietary construction empowers the fibers to store more energy that is harnessed through the elongated bend, resulting in a significant boost in exit velocity.Newton Symmetry360 Design – ensures consistent flex, regardless of the driver’s clocking position.Variable Bend Profile – meticulously designed to match the bend and torque requirements of each flex. Whether a slow or high swing speed, the Newton Motion technology tailors to the torque. “We are ecstatic that Ken put the s...
