"What happened this year was very special," said Nickent CEO Michael Lee. "It was all about our hybrid helping the best players in the world realize their dreams of winning and giving their best possible performances. Hybrid usage exploded in 2006 and everyone was placing a huge emphasis on the category. We showed this year that hybrids are all about performance. I would like to thank all those players who put us in play. Their undying faith in our product is something I am very proud of."
In the last three years, Nickent Golf has become a phenomenon on the world’s professional tours. Showing up on the range out of obscurity, Nickent’s line of 3DX hybrids quickly became the # 1 most played hybrid on the Nationwide Tour. Since that time, over 200 players on the PGA Tours have put their clubs into play.
"2006 proved to be another great year for Nickent Golf on Tour," said Nickent Director of Tour Operations Josh Trivett. "It was a tough year out there with all of the hybrid pressure, but for us to have more victories and top ten finishes than the big boys is a truly amazing feat. It has been so exciting to watch the progress and growth that we have experienced over the last 3 years on tour. We started as a bit player, but quickly advanced to be the #1 Hybrid on the Nationwide Tour, dethroning the old kings of the past. Now we have the #1 Hybrid in the world, according the Official World Rankings."
"It has been quite a ride for our company," said Trivett. "Not only is it a pleasure to see the number of Nickent products in play increasing, it’s an even greater pleasure to see the multitude of players winning with Nickent products. There is no greater satisfaction as a company than to know you have helped provide them with the tools they need to win. That’s what it’s all about at the end of the day."
