In 2002, Dave Makarucha and Gawain Robertson created PGMC, beginning with a relationship with Royal Precision and then United Sports Technologies (UST) as agents for the Canadian market. During the first two years of successful growth, PGMC realized the need for a truly premium golf shaft company dedicated to professional club fitters. Thus, a product that catered to the discerning golfer who truly cared about being professionally fitted for their clubs. This has been the concept behind ACCRA since its inception and continues to be that way to this day.
In January 2004, the program began to develop from a concept to reality with an agreement to exclusively license the brand name ACCRA from UST. The development of an entire line of shafts dedicated to club fitting was created and by May of 2004, ACCRA Golf Shafts were introduced at the Byron Nelson Championship. Fourteen PGA Tour players put an ACCRA shaft in their bag that first week and ACCRA has never looked back because of the continued success on Tours around the world.
During the first few months of 2004, ACCRA’s philosophy was adopted by a number of the world’s most successful and technologically advanced fitting studios. This, along with Tour success, gave instant credibility to the brand. More than 50 Tour victories around the world and distribution through more than 350 fitters in 24 countries has turned ACCRA Golf Shafts into a market leader.
In 2007, PGMC purchased all rights to the ACCRA brand and intellectual properties, creating a totally independent brand and constantly continues to research innovative methods to provide golfers with the best performing golf shafts available.
ACCRA Golf is dedicated to developing golf shafts with innovative technology for the discerning golfer. ACCRA Golf believes that the only way to purchase a high performance golf shaft is to be fit by the world’s best club fitters (Certified ACCRA Fitters).
Creating an exceptional relationship with customers with constant communication being the key to ACCRA’s success. Certified ACCRA Fitters are knowledgeable professionals who represent the ACCRA brand with dedication and loyalty. ACCRA certified fitters form the front line of service in the golf industry and who better to provide input into the creation of new products than fitters themselves. Many of ACCRA’s club fitters have been significantly involved in the development of past and current successful ACCRA designs.
Another source of design concepts comes from the responses received from the world’s greatest golfers. ACCRA Golf has been privileged to be trusted by many PGA Tour professionals and we are grateful for the constant feedback received during the product development cycle.
