Tour Lock Optimal Weighting Technology
Optimal Weighting Technology- Optimizing the static and balance weight of a club to best suit the individual swinging.
Golfers can now fine tune and enhance the performance of their drivers, irons, and putters with the new Tour Lock Opti-Vibe Weighting System. By optimizing the static weight, and balance point of the golf club, golfers will have more feel, stability and control of the swing and stroke.
Tour Lock Opti-Vibe allows a custom fitter, teaching pro or an individual the ability optimize the overall static weight and balance point of the club to best suit the individual's feel and performance preferences.
How Tour Lock Opti-Vibe Works:
Internal weights are inserted in the shaft and then locked inside the shaft. The overall weight of the club increases by a factor of the chosen internal weight. The advantage of the Tour Lock Opti-Vibe system is that swing weight and MOI can be adjusted by simply moving the weight up or down inside the shaft. This allows an individual to make their club feel head heavy or head light depending on their preferences. The Center of Gravity of the weights can be positioned very accurately and then locked into position using a patent pending compression seal.
Tour Lock Pro and Opti-Vibe weights conforms to USGA and R&A Rules of Golf. To conform to the rules of golf the weight must remain permanently fixed and not be moved during the round of golf. Wherever the weight is positioned at the start of the round is where it must remain in place for the entire round.
Benefits of Tour Lock Opti-Vibe:
1. Enhanced Stability - by adding weight in locations which raise club balance and enhance stability, the club will swing or stroke on a more predictable path.
2. Enhanced Feel Control - by manipulating the internal weight position it is easier to optimize the total weight and balance point of the club resulting in better overall control.

Performance Fitting Technology
Keep in mind, when fitting an individual for any club, total optimization is the goal. Performance Fitting Technology is the easiest, quickest and most conclusive way to finding total optimization of a golf club to match the individual using it. Performance Fitting Technology requires the basic fitting parameters (club aesthetics, lie, length, grip, shaft profiling etc), the difference is in the ability to alter the feel and performance of the club to best suit the individual in ways that have been PGA Tour proven to work. This proven method is much easier for an individual to find the optimal performance of a club while at the same time creating a better awareness of a sound repeatable swing.
The “Art of Optimization”
Golf club awareness is the key. This is based on FEEL and pertains to all clubs.
Before stroking one putt or hitting one shot, club should be comfortable for individual feel. At this time, the fine tuning of the club can be optimized to the individual by incremental adjustments of the desired internal weight. This is tested and influenced with the aid of monitors, video and is also based off of ball/contact reaction. Both dynamic test results and scientific monitor data results will tell you what you need to know to achieve OWT.
Dynamically altering clubs static and balance weight affects individuals differently. In all cases, both dynamic and scientific testing will yield an optimal result of static and balance weight that matches the individual best. Incremental internal weight adjustments are very hard to feel but these minor alterations certainly affect contact, consistency and directional roll. Once peak optimization is found, the club now will be OPTIMIZED and you have achieved Optimal Weight Technology...
