ITASCA, IL. – July 10, 2007- Excel Golf Products Inc., manufacturer of the Zero Friction Golf Tee, the "Winningest" performance golf tee on the PGA Tour and of the Tocare Tour Grip, the first grip to feature a Vibration Diffusion Patternâ?¢, announced today that company has retained Geoff Zerby to manage and direct the purchasing and logistical departments.
Zerby brings to Excel Golf Products a wealth of knowledge to both respective business units. His experience draws from ten meticulous years at Tour Edge Golf where he honed in his skills to efficiently forecast, purchase, source, and coordinate logistics.
"This important assignment is a key factor to Excel Golf Product’s short term business plan. His expertise can save the company money as well as time," states John Iacono, President and CEO of Excel Golf Products, Inc. "His proficiency will help the company continue to provide the consumer innovative tees and grips at a sensible price. With the international marketplace in constant flux, we are thrilled to have an executive of Geoff’s stature to navigate these critical areas."
The Zero Friction Biodegradable with its unique patented tri-pronged design or three-pronged cup provides less resistance between the golf
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.
"This is such a great opportunity. Excel Golf Products with both their Zero Friction Golf Tees and Tocare Grips is growing rapidly domestically and internationally. I’m excited to be part of such a fast moving company," states Zerby
A Zero Friction Golf Tee has been used to claim over 29 professional tour victories and over 181 Top-10 finishes. Because of its success 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-inch, and coming soon in a shorter 1 ¾-inch version, designed specifically for hybrids. Excel Golf Products have also expanded the Zero Friction line to include an assortment of colors.
