LA HABRA, Calif. — April 4, 2006 — The long distance Dimplit 1070 golf ball recently was awarded the prestigious "Baggy Award" by Golf Illustrated, as part of the magazine’s first annual equipment awards contest. The magazine hailed the extraordinary Dimplit 1070 golf ball one of the "Best Kept Secrets" in golf equipment.
The magazine states, "It’s a shame it’s a secret. What could very well be the best golf ball on the market is a relative mystery. Imagine a ball that goes 20 yards farther, conforms to USGA rules and offers the softest touch around the green without getting chewed up by clubfaces. That’s the Dimplit 1070." (Golf Illustrated, p. 72, Dec. 2005 issue)
The innovative 1070 dimple design on the ball, with 414 large dimples to maximize distance combined with 656 smaller dimples to decrease drag and resistance in the air, creates the longest and most accurate golf ball on the market. According to Mr. Peter Pak, President of Dimplit, "the large dimples give the ball greater lift to ensure longer carry. The small dimples stabilize the ball to produce a straighter flight for maximum distance."
"The result is longer straighter shots for golfers of all levels of ability," Pak said. "This ball is unique in that it works with the tour caliber swing speed, the average golfer and even the beginner to help improve each of their games. With how well this golf ball performs, we don’t anticipate it being a repeat winner of ‘Best Kept Secret!’"
The Dimplit 1070 is a 90-compression, two-piece seamless golf ball constructed with a Surlyn cover and a proprietary, high energy core material. The ball has performance characteristics of much more expensive multi-layer golf balls, with low-spin launch off of the driver, and high-spin launch from the short irons. Its seamless design ensures a perfectly round ball both inside and out to produce more consistent shots. (Suggested retail price: $39.99/dozen).
