ITASCA, IL. – December 4, 2006 – The Excel Golf Tee Company, manufacturer of the "Winningest" high performance golf tee with 21 professional tour victories and over 160 Top-10 finishes announced today that their Zero Friction Golf Teeâ?¢ is now available in an assortment of colors.
"The decision to expand the Zero Friction Golf Tee line was based on the industry’s direction of the tee and ball business, says Mike Herron, Business Development Manager for Excel Golf Tee, Inc. "Golfers continue to change and it effects the market. Today our wooden tees do great in colors. Look at the golf ball business. Multi-colored, pink, bright orange balls line the shelves at retail. The new colorful Zero Friction Golf Tees will appeal to the golfer who enjoys the benefits of the three-pronged design but prefers to be different, more stylish."
The new multicolored Zero Friction Golf Tees are currently available at retail. The initial orders shipped are in black and in pink. Black as a neutral color worked well with the original yellow packaging so they will be sold in the same branded package. The vibrant pink and white Zero Friction Golf Tee package was designed to complement the intensity of the pink tee. Both colors have been well received at retail and should still be in supply for Christmas.
Zero Friction Golf Tees steeped with national pride are the new red and blue colors. These significant introductions will be available March 1, 2007. The new Zero Friction Golf Tees will remain at the same costs as the original white Zero Friction Golf Tee. The suggested retail for the 50-pack 2 ¾" will be $5.99 and the 35-pack 3 ¼" Zero Friction Golf Tee will retail for $5.99.
The Zero Friction Golf Tee has become a long driving icon. Golfers on the major professional men’s tours used its unique three-pronged teeing system to gain invaluable extra distance to win 21 tournaments last year.
The three-pronged design of the Zero Friction Golf Tee provides less resistance between the ball and the golf tee for longer, straighter drives. Its reduced spin rate fights dispersion, thereby keeping the ball on line and in the fairway. With its consistent higher trajectories and reduced spin rates, it is no wondered the Zero Friction Biodegradable Tees are the "Winningest" golf tee on the PGA Tour.
Zero Friction Golf Tees are manufactured by the Excel Golf Tee Company, Inc. of Itasca, IL, a full service distributor of wood golf tee serving the golf industry. Its goal is to provide the highest quality tees at an affordable price with timely and economical distribution.
