#1 In Aim & Alignment!
AT-505 Irons from Thomas Golf

 

Look out!  Here comes the AT-505 Irons from Thomas Golf, Inc., a new company that’s shaking up the industry. By combining the latest in technological advancements with outstanding innovative thinking, Thomas Golf has created a patented set of Irons (3-PW) featuring the first everAim and Alignment System”.  This alignment technology is like nothing else in golf!  What does all this mean for the future owners of the AT-505? …placing their shots closer to the pin than ever before!

Leading professional instructors have worked hand-in-hand with this new and exciting company, for they fully understand that misalignment is one of the most common errors in golf.  The goal was simple, “to develop an alignment system which would lower the scores of golfers at all skill levels”.  Thomas Golf reached this goal with
outstanding success.  Independent research has shown that the “Aim and Alignment Technology” of the AT-505 Iron greatly improves accuracy and lowers scores.  Thomas Golf has quickly become the industry leader in Aim and Alignment.

The patented Advanced Top Plane was meticulously designed to incorporate an indicator that is parallel to the ground and perpendicular to the face.  This relationship assures the club is in the correct address position and provides the golfer with dual axial alignment of the striking surface, thus guaranteeing correct direction and loft every time.  These clubs are the result of the company’s unsurpassed commitment to product design, research and development.

 Alignment

In order for a golf ball to travel on the envisioned path, the golf club must be aimed properly.  If alignment of the club is not correct, then the golfer’s hands, arms, head, shoulders, hips, knees, and feet will have to compensate for the misalignment. This always leads to inconsistency.

It is important for the golfer to start with proper club alignment, then align the body to the club head. This is the only way golfers can consistently swing on plane and therefore hit closer to the target.

Because the club’s toe is higher then the heel, the slanted top plane of the iron aims about 20 degrees to the right of the target line. This makes irons hard to aim, particularly because the ball and grass obscure the iron’s leading edge.

he new patented AT-505 irons solve this alignment problem by using an indicator on the top plane so the golfer can:

1st......   Stand behind the ball looking at the target landing area, then visually work your eyes back to the ball, picking a small spot only inches in front of the ball and on the target line.

2nd....   Walk to the side of the ball and aim the AT-505’s top plane indicator at the spot in front of the ball. (The patented top plane indicator is parallel to the ground and perpendicular to the club face)

3rd ....   Align your shoulders, hips, and knees parallel with the irons indicator.

Now that your club and body are aligned properly, go ahead and finish your normal routine.

Thomas Golf is dedicated to pairing this exciting technology with the finest quality materials, workmanship, and customer service.  For more information on the irons that are sending shock waves throughout the industry visit their web site at: www.thomasgolf.com
