I can see North Fork possibly doing the graphite shafts. It isn't actually a fishing rod company. All they do is produce graphite rod blanks. Since rolling graphite blanks is all they do, it can't be too hard to add golf blanks to that as well.
Although it does say "by MPC" on the shaft. That is a composite company. I don't know much about them, though.

The shaft is very underrated IMHO.....mine is an X and would prefer an S to really give some playing time, though I have a feeling the X is more like a Strong Flex as GL sells an XXstiff also.
Here are some numbers from a Trackman session and you can see how well it matched up against some big named shafts. (PX, Devo, Ahina, Speeder)
Looking for a Stiff if anyone has one

Bass. GLX and IMX Series.
Back on topic.....Davis Love played their graphite shafts for a bit back in the early to mid 90's. He's a big fisherman, so he probably worked out a pretty good "deal" for some rods.

Gary Loomis sold G. Loomis Golf to Aldila in 1996
Gary sold G. Loomis Fishing to Shimano in 1997
Gary left G. Loomis Fishing in 2008 and started North Fork Composites
Jeff Meyer (the former head of metal wood development at Titleist) designed all of the Loomis golf shafts from 1992-1996
Jeff Meyer is now the owner of Meyer Performance Composites, LLC, who manufactures the new G. Loomis shafts
MPC uses Gary's North Fork Composites facility to prototype their shafts
The steel wedge shafts they offer with the collegiate logos are TT DG wedge shafts. They don't currently make steel shafts,
G. Loomis branded shafts including irons will be available in 2012.
