TORONTO — Element 21 Golf Company (OTC BB:EGLF.OB – News) (Frankfurt:BJQ.F – News), the manufacturer of advanced Scandium Alloy golf and bio-fibre fishing equipment, announces that two players using Element 21 Scandium technology on an unendorsed basis placed 2nd and 6th at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.
Ranked number 11 in the world going into the tournament, this player switched to Scandium Technology in August 2007 and has been using them ever since. During that time he won The Korean Open, set a course record to tie for 2nd at the Singapore Open, and led the field at Pebble Beach in Greens in Regulation. 77.8% of his approach shots hit the green as compared to the average for the tournament in greens in regulation at 65.4%.
This hard working golfer is second on the all time PGA money list to the World’s ranked number one player. His 10 under par second place finish at the AT&T Pro-Am earned him $648,000 to take his PGA earnings to over 58 million dollars.
The second player, who tied for the 6th is a Nike Golf sponsored player. He incorporated Element 21 Scandium technology into his Nike iron clubs in early 2006, and has since moved to one of the leading positions in GIR.
"Once again, we have seen that Scandium accuracy is beyond anything experienced in the golf industry to-date, as was shown by robotic, third-party testing and now by the top PGA Tour players," stated Dr. Nataliya Hearn, Element 21’s CEO. "This player has a reputation as being the hardest working professional golfer hitting hundreds of golf balls on the practice range daily and playing in numerous events worldwide each year. The medical benefits of scandium engineering are also being confirmed on Tour. There is no doubt that that our vibration dampening ‘ShockBlok(TM)’ technology and our shafts’ superior accuracy and distance can help support this player’s legendary practice routine and his record for winning golf tournaments."
Element 21 Scandium golf club technology is available for testing for only $49.95. The $49.95 price tag comes with money back guarantee, or can be used towards a purchase of the complete Emc” iron set. Information of this limited time offer is available on the front page of Element 21 Golf website www.e21golf.com.
On average, the Element 21 Scandium Alloy shaft registered substantially longer distance than any other shaft it tested against, in some cases by as much as 16 yards at identical swing speeds, using identical 6 iron heads for the test.
While the added distance of the Element 21 Scandium Alloy shafts was impressive the dispersion/accuracy ratings it achieved were even more overwhelming. The Scandium Shafts recorded dispersion/accuracy ratings as low as +/-1.33 feet from the target zone on center hits. This low dispersion rating showed that the Element 21 Scandium Shafts are nearly 5 TIMES more accurate than their nearest competitor.
About The Element 21 Scandium Shaft Technology
Element 21’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 golfers’ bodies, bones and joints. Each Element 21 shaft is made from a single piece of Scandium Alloy resulting in unmatched consistency from club to club as well as unprecedented accuracy and distance and an industry-leading torque of as low as 1.4 degrees.
