TORONTO — May 4, 2007 — Element 21 Golf Company ("e21") (OTC BB: EGLF & Frankfurt (FWB): BJQ) the manufacturer of advanced Scandium Alloy golf equipment, announced today that their Eagle One Scandium Alloy shafts have dramatically improved the iron play of one of the top players on the PGA Tour. As reported in the April 20th edition of GolfWorld Magazine, the Tour Player has ranked "1st in GIR and 10th in driving accuracy in ’07 after ranking 67th and 17th in those categories in ’06." The mentioned player made the switch from steel to Eagle One Scandium shafts at the beginning of the 2007 season.
This 11-Time Winner on the PGA Tour has 97 career Top 10 Finishes to his credit and is considered one of the best ball strikers on the Tour. He has placed his confidence in e21’s Scandium Alloy shafts and has quickly become #1 in Greens in Regulation on the PGA Tour.
"The response from the Tour Players has been overwhelmingly positive," said Nataliya Hearn, CEO of e21 Golf. "Look what our Scandium Technology has done for the accuracy and performance of this tour player. It’s made an impressive impact on his game. Going from 67th to 1st in GIR – I mean that’s amazing! We are proud to have him using our shafts."
About The e21 Eagle One Scandium Shafts
e21’s Scandium Alloy shafts are manufactured using a proprietary 25-step production process to create a seamless, extruded shaft. Variable wall thickness and the alloy’s high tensile strength results in a vibration dampening system called ShockBlok(TM) with 270% better shock attenuation than steel shafts that protects golfer’s bodies, bones and joints. Each e21 shaft is made from a single piece of Scandium Alloy resulting in unmatched consistency from club to club as well as unprecedented accuracy and an industry leading torque of as low as 1.4

Based on this superior performance, a number of high profile golf professionals have switched to or have begun testing e21’s Eagle One shafts in recent months.
e21 Scandium Metal Alloy is the secret behind this advanced performance. Originally developed for advanced aeronautics in jet fighters such as the MiG, it is 55% lighter and offers a 25% greater strength-to-weight advantage over Titanium alloys, the current standard in the golf equipment industry. e21 Scandium Metal Alloys allows greater freedom to move more weight to the perimeter of the club face in woods and hybrids than any other metal, resulting in a significantly larger sweet spot than any other club head. Additionally, e21 Scandium Metal Alloy shafts are almost perfectly symmetrical at 99.5-99.9%, compared to 60-78% typical in graphite shafts and 80-85% for steel.
