Softspikes Captures 2nd Consecutive Victory, And 8th Win Of The Season, As The Winner Of The EDS Byron Nelson Championship Chose PulsarÌ¢?å¢, The #1 Cleat On The PGA TOUR
Nashville, TN., May 1, 2007 â?¦ PrideSports, maker of Softspikes® and the world’s leading manufacturer of golf cleats, captured its second consecutive victory this week, and its 8th win for the 2007 season, as the winner of the EDS Byron Nelson Championship chose Pulsarâ?¢, the #1 cleat on the PGA TOUR.
Among competitors of the EDS Byron Nelson Championship, nearly 70 percent of all golfers wearing plastic cleats, chose to wear Softspikes brand plastic cleats. PrideSports’ plastic cleats have been #1 on the PGA TOUR for 11th consecutive seasons, led by Softspikes’ Pulsarâ?¢ and complemented by BlackWidowâ?¢, the #1 selling cleat model in the world.
"It is a great accomplishment to have consistent dominance with 2 consecutive wins, and 8 wins so early in the season," said Joe Zeller, President, PrideSports. "This proves once again that the performance characteristics of our cleats are unsurpassed."
Pulsarâ?¢ by Softspikes® features the Company’s proprietary Reactive Comfort Technologyâ?¢. Through this technology, Pulsar delivers maximum comfort and performance via a 16 component design that reacts to every angle of force exerted by the golfer. As part of this design, flexor knuckles placed at the flex point on each of Pulsar’s eight legs offers enhanced strength, responsiveness and more than twice the flexibility of any cleat on the market. In addition, reinforced arched webbing between each of Pulsar’s legs delivers instant energy return every time the cleat is compressed. As a result, all of these features combine to produce a cleat offering unmatched stability and comfort.
Softspikes is a division of Pride Sports, which was formed in January 2003, following Pride Manufacturing Company’s purchase of Softspikes, Inc., and its sister company Trisport, Ltd. of England. This acquisition essentially formed the world’s premier golf accessories company, as Pride and Softspikes are the world’s leading golf tee and golf cleat lines, respectively. Today, Pride Sports is the world leader in the design and manufacture of cleats, spikes and receptacles for the entire golf footwear industry.
