Brentwood, TN, November 26, 2007 â?¦ PrideSports — the #1 Cleat Company on TOUR – has extended its professional golf domination to the Nationwide Tour, as the Company has announced that 24 of the Top 25 players on the 2007 Nationwide Tour chose to wear Softspikes’ Pulsarâ?¢ cleats – the #1 Cleat on TOUR.
"I was extremely pleased with the comfort and traction benefits of the Pulsar golf cleats, which have become part of my equipment arsenal on tour," said Chad Collins, a Nationwide Tour player who finished 23rd on the money list and who will now join the PGA TOUR in 2008. "The first time I tried the Pulsar cleats I shot 62 and had plenty of comfort and energy for another nine. These spikes give you great traction no matter what the condition or grass."
PrideSports’ success on the Nationwide Tour comes on the heels of the 2007 PGA TOUR season, where over 80% of the competing field for the FedEx Cup chose PrideSports’ products, including the Pulsar cleats, Pride Golf Tees – the #1 wooden golf tee on TOUR, Fast-Twistâ?¢ – the #1 cleat system on TOUR and Black Widowâ?¢ – the #1 selling golf cleat in the world. PrideSports also captured its 44th straight major championship in 2007. In fact, since the Darrell Survey began tracking cleat surveys in 1996, PrideSports products, including Softspikes-brand cleats, have led the field in usage at every major championship.
"2007 marked another great year for PrideSports in professional golf," said Joe Zeller, President, PrideSports. "As our stable of products continues to be the choice of a majority of players on the PGA TOUR, we are very excited that 24 of the top 25 players on the Nationwide Tour, and the future stars of the PGA TOUR, chose to wear our Pulsar cleats."
PrideSports 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.
