Oak Brook Terrace, IL – February 14th, 2007 – Excel Golf Products, Inc., manufacturer of the highly successful Zero Friction Performance Golf Tee and the Tocaré Performance Golf Grip, announced today that their patented 3-pronged tee was put into play at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am by 3 PGA Tour Players who all placed in the top-10. The 2nd place player took home $648,000 with his finish and the T3 player claimed $312,000. Both PGA Tour veterans have been playing the Zero Friction tee for several years. A young player who tied for 7th was also using Zero Friction and has made the cut in all 4 events he’s played in this season.
“It’s always exciting to watch the best players tee up their ball each week with Zero Friction and we’re thrilled that they had success at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am” says Bob White, Vice President of Sales for Excel Golf.
The Zero Friction Performance Golf Tee has been used to claim over 30 professional tour victories and over 210 top-10 finishes. The success can be attributed to its unique patented 3-pronged cup that provides less resistance between the golf ball and the tee resulting in longer, straighter drives. Zero Friction is available in 1 ¾”, 2 ¾”, and 3 ¼” lengths and in a variety of colors including the recently released orange.
Excel Golf’s newest offering, the Tocaré Performance Golf Grip, is played on the PGA Tour by Kenny Perry, Dean Wilson and Ryan Palmer. The Tocaré Tour, the first line of grips for Tocaré, features Vibration Diffusion Pattern (VDP) Technology. Composed of a unique diamond pattern, the grips diffuse vibration, providing for a more fluid swing. The multi-material composition provides optimum tackiness and feel, while the multi-durometer design reduces grip pressure to allow golfers to swing more freely.
Zero Friction Tees and Tocaré Grips are manufactured by Excel Golf Products, Inc. of Oak Brook Terrace, IL, a full-service distributor of golf accessories. For more information, visit excelgolfproducts.com.
