Srixon Golf Ball Constructed With Exclusive RabalonR Cover and New 328 Dimple Pattern
ATLANTA, GA – August 14, 2006 Srixon Sports, a leader in golf ball and golf club technology, today announces its softest and longest distance ball yet: the new and improved Soft Feel-2 Piece. Made with Srixon’s revolutionary RabalonR cover and new, high trajectory 328 dimple pattern, the new Srixon Soft Feel-2 Piece incorporates tour proven performance in a low compression ball for the everyday golfer.
"We have made the new Soft Feel-2 Piece a better ball for the everyday golfer by reengineering the core and applying new aerodynamics to optimize performance for all golfers," said Richard Stamper, Srixon’s President. "Srixon’s revolutionary RabalonR cover and the newly developed 328 dimple pattern will help give golfers more distance through improved ball speed and optimized launch conditions," added Stamper. "Srixon golf ball technology competes at the highest level-we’ve collected multiple wins and Top 10s this year on tours around the world. And we’ve been able to apply our tour winning technology to help golfers of all abilities and swing speeds," added Stamper.
The all-new Srixon Soft Feel 2-piece’s newly developed 328 dimple pattern features greater surface area coverage which produces a higher lift force coefficient while reducing the normally accompanying high speed drag for a strong and penetrating ball flight. The shallow dimples also promote a higher trajectory which is ideal to help golfers with lower swing speeds maintain carry and increase distance. Additionally, the all new Energetic Gradient Growth core of the new Soft Feel 2-piece is more resilient than ever before allowing players of all swing speeds to gain valuable initial velocity. Yet despite its greater resilience, the new Soft Feel 2-piece maintains the smallest impact force of any of the competition. And the smaller the impact force, the softer and more responsive the feel. The unique "Hit Straight" alignment aid will give golfers, who typically use logos to align their putts, a clear and unmistakable aiming point to confidently point towards their target.
The new Soft Feel-2 Piece will be sold exclusively in on- and off-course golf shops and carries a suggested retail price of $25 per dozen.
