New TPT Red Range Shafts offer an “Improvement Guarantee”
Swiss manufacturer TPT has just introduced the newest shafts to its lineup: the Red Range.
The shafts are created with Continuous Fiber technology, a patent-pending automated shaft manufacturing process that continuously winds the carbon-fiber prepreg material around the shaft mandrel from tip to handle. The result is golf shafts produced without seams or spines, which can reduce performance and consistency, according to the company.
“Continuous Fiber means that our shafts are made with one start and one stop,” says TPT Co-Founder Gerard Gautier. “We don’t have over-layers. We don’t have gaps. And we can do this because unlike our competitors, we’re not making shafts by hand. We’re using automation.”
TPT Technology
The Red Range of shafts uses TPT’s all-new Thin-Ply 2.0 carbon-fiber prepreg, which according to TPT is two times stronger and three times tougher than the company’s original Thin-Ply material used in its Blue Range.
The Thin-Ply 2.0 utilizes an improved resin formulation TPT developed exclusively for its golf division that gave its designers the freedom to push the performance and durability of TPT shafts further than the previous generation.
The prepreg material is created with an automated process that takes TPT’s ultra-thin carbon-fiber and stacks it together in precise orientations. The sheets are then fused together to multiply their strength and toughness before they’re cut into strips and wound from tip to handle to create a seamless, spineless golf shaft.
The TPT Guarantee
Some golfers have a hard time justifying the performance benefits associated with aftermarket shafts, but TPT is attempting to remove any doubt by introducing the Automatic Improvement Guarantee, a statement of the confidence that its Red Range shafts will offer golfers longer, straighter drives when fit by a TPT Authorized Fitter.
According to the company: “The Automatic Improvement Guarantee is simple. If golfers aren’t seeing the same improved performance with a TPT shaft that they saw in their fitting, they can return it to their participating TPT Authorized fitter within 30 days of purchase for a return or exchange.”
Price and Availability
The Red range shaft series is categorized numerically 14-19, each of which is available in both Hi and Lo models (12 in total). The naming system prioritizes dynamic performance over the non-standardized monikers typically used to define shaft models.
TPT Red shafts are $500 each and are available exclusively through their network of more than 200 authorized fitters around the world.

Coolest thing for sale in the GolfWRX Classifieds (5/13/24): Full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs
At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals that all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.
It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.
Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, there is a listing for a full set of ‘Tiger Slam’ clubs.
From the seller: (@CaymanS): “During the year of recovery from leg surgery that never quite healed, I was bored. One thing led to another, and I ended up gradually building/acquiring the individual pieces to complete a set of “Tiger Slam” clubs. They are what Tiger played to win 4 consecutive majors, which nobody has ever done. This is not an exact replica of course, but something close that fit me to play a few times per year and experience what Tiger did. But my bad leg, 4 shoulder tears, and age prevents me from the ball-striking needed to enjoy these to their fullest. They may not be everyone’s cup of tea, especially since the driver and fairway shafts are regular flex and most players good enough to play these will need to change them, but it’s not a perfect world. I am not a historian on this stuff, but my research indicates these are the same models Tiger used, with slightly different specs to fit me.
Full set $1,600, or…
…a donation for a Pro Kids fundraiser, or…
Driver: $70
Fairway: $250
Irons: $1,100
Wedges: $100
Putter: $350″

I normally don’t flinch at price. If PXG would come out with a single-length iron set, I’d probably bite. But $500 per shaft? If you’re really serious, that’s $6,000 or so for the bag. Please. I’d love to hear the value proposition where you get $6,000 more of performance, satisfaction, or whatever. Go ahead, I can’t wait to hear it.

Hey smart guy
“ Red Range shafts will offer golfers longer, straighter drives when fit by a TPT Authorized Fitter.”
In case you truly can’t read even with a second chance, I’ll point out the words “drives.”
Pxg single length … Everything about your post is wrong. Just stop
