SANTA ANA, CA – June 20, 2006 – GolfGym, the industry leader in golf fitness proved the effectiveness of its products at the recent International Network of Golf (ING) Conference in Pinehurst, NC by winning the long drive contest two days in a row. The contests were won by golfers who regularly use and warm up with the GolfGym PowerSwing Trainer prior to playing.
David Burnham of Golf Yellow Pages won the first long drive contest after smashing a drive of just over 320 yards. According to Burnham, he has increased his distance off the tee by more than 30 yards since using GolfGym’s PowerSwing Trainer. "It’s a secret that I really kind of want to keep to myself," continued Burnham. "Having the edge off the tee is what every golfer wants."
The second long drive award went to GolfGym’s 57-year-old Founder and President, Ken Pierce, who knocked a 300+ yard drive straight down the middle on his first hole of the day. "You can’t ignore the facts," stated Pierce. "The PowerSwing Trainer really works! It only takes a few minutes to warm up with it before your round and the benefits are immediate."
The patented PowerSwing Trainer is a unique training and conditioning tool designed to develop proper swing habits and muscle memory, improve club control and shot accuracy, build strength to add distance, and develop better balance and posture. The PowerSwing Trainer has been tested and approved by the PGA TOUR Partners Club members with an impressive 94% approval rating!
The PowerSwing Trainer comes packaged in either a Personal Edition for $39.95 or a Masters Edition for $69.95. Both versions include a ProPerfect training grip, a latex PowerCord (a medium resistance for the Personal Edition and a light, medium and heavy resistance for the Masters Edition), door attachment, quick-start DVD and a convenient carrying bag.
