Pulsar Captures Both The TOUR Championship and The Southern Farm Bureau Classic
Gaithersburg, Maryland, November 7, 2005 â?¦ Pulsarâ?¢ by Softspikes®, the latest product innovation from the world’s leading golf cleat Company, earned a PGA TOUR double victory this past weekend, as the top finisher in both the TOUR Championship and the Southern Farm Bureau Classic, in choosing plastic cleats over metal spikes, wore Pulsar cleats. At The TOUR Championship, three of the top five finishers, along with more than half the golfers in the field that wore plastic cleats, chose to wear Softspikes-brand cleats — Pulsar and Black Widow.
Along with the victory at the TOUR Championship, Pulsarâ?¢ by Softspikes® also gained its 12th PGA TOUR win of 2005 at the Southern Farm Bureau Classic, where the winner and five of the top ten finishers wore Softspikes brand golf cleats.
"The success and dominance that Softspikes displayed this past weekend speaks volumes of the overall performance characteristics and quality of our cleats," said Dan Tilton, Vice President, Softspikes, Inc. "It is equally rewarding to see the winners from these two events wear our product."
Pulsar by Softspikes features the Company’s proprietary Reactive Comfort Technologyâ?¢. Through this technology, Pulsar delivers maximum comfort and performance via a 16 component design that reacts to every angle of force exerted by the golfer. As part of this design, flexor knuckles placed at the flex point on each of Pulsar’s eight legs offers enhanced strength, responsiveness and more than twice the flexibility of any cleat on the market. In addition, reinforced arched webbing between each of Pulsar’s legs delivers instant energy return every time the cleat is compressed. As a result, all of these features combine to produce a cleat offering unmatched stability and comfort.
Softspikes is a division of PrideSports, which was formed in January 2003, following Pride Manufacturing Company’s purchase of Softspikes, Inc., and its sister company Trisport, Ltd. of England. This acquisition essentially formed the world’s premier golf accessories company, as Pride and Softspikes are the world’s leading golf tee and golf cleat lines, respectively. Today, PrideSports is the world leader in the design and manufacture of cleats, spikes and receptacles for the entire golf footwear industry.
