ITASCA, IL. – March 20, 2007 – Excel Golf Products, Inc., manufacturer of the Zero Friction Golf Tee, the "Winningest" high performance golf tee with now 29 professional tour victories and over a record breaking 168 Top-10 PGA Tour finishes, announced today that a loyal Zero Friction Golf Tee user enjoyed his second win of the 2007 PGA Tour season using the three-pronged tee.
"This prominent PGA Professional is amazing. As the years roll by he actually gets better. He is such a diligent worker, always on the driving range and that is where Ken McDonald, our PGA Tour Representative, introduced the Zero Friction Golf Tee to him. It makes us ecstatic that he has been playing the Zero Friction Golf Tee for a year now. Out in Tucson at the WGC Accenture event, he was introduced to the new Zero Friction Hybrid Golf Tee which is enjoying tremendous success on Tour. I wouldn’t be surprised if this same PGA Professional helps the company attain its 30th Tour victory," states Mike Herron, Business Development Manager at Excel Golf Products.
PGA Professionals from all over the world participate in the Arnold Palmer Invitational. The combination of Palmer’s hospitality combined with the warm weather of the Florida Swing brings in the world’s best. In addition to this notable 29th victory, a Zero Friction Golf Tee was used by another international professional to tie for ninth place, his third Top-10 finish of the 2007 season.
"We congratulate both of the international Touring Professionals for last week’s performance. It appears they both will be topping the leader board often," adds Herron.
The engineering of the Zero Friction Golf Tee makes it so effective off the tee. Its unique three-pronged design significantly reduces the contact area between the golf ball and the tee. At impact, this small degree of contact reduction or resistance results in increased accuracy and distance. In an independent laboratory Zero Friction Golf Tees were proven to be the longest and most accurate tees used on Tour.
The popularity for the Zero Friction Golf Tee continues to grow as does the product line. It is now offered in the original 2 ¾-inch, 3 ¼-inches, the long driver’s favorite 4-inches and now in a shorter 1 ¾-inch version, designed specifically for hybrids. Excel Golf Products offer the same traditional white color but have expanded the Zero Friction line to include an assortment of colors.
