Mitchell® Golf Equipment Company, Dayton, Ohio reports its Steelclub® Angle Machine has been number one in tour vans for 20 consecutive years. Since 1988 when True Temper was the only equipment company van on tour, major club manufacturers and independent tour vans have relied on the superiority of Mitchell machines to ensure tour players’ clubs have proper loft, lie and face angles.
Ed Mitchell, PGA Professional and company founder says, “Tour players know the value of proper golf club angles and rely on our machines to keep their clubs properly tuned. We are grateful that the tour vans put their faith in our products and buy our machines. It verifies our machines are the best in the world.”
In 2008 Mitchell® Golf has its new Steelclub® Signature Angle Machines in use in 23 vans on the PGA, Nationwide, Champions and LPGA tours. On the PGA Tour, 15 of 16 vans exclusively use this new industry standard. Besides 12 of 13 major club manufacturers, 3 independent vans also use it. On the Nationwide Tour, 4 out of 5 vans use the Steelclub® Signature Angle Machine. The PGA Tour uses it in their own van on the Champions Tour along with the only independent van following the seniors, making its usage 2 out of 2 vans. Likewise, the LPGA uses it in their own van on the LPGA Tour for a count of 2 out of 2 vans on the ladies circuit.
Mike Stevens, Director of Sales & Marketing states, “The new Steelclub® Signature Angle Machine dominates the US tour with 23 out of 25 vans. And Steelclub® machines are number one in usage on all the world tours too. In addition, for several years 6 major club manufacturers have used our machines exclusively in their Tech Vans.”
Mitchell® machines are used exclusively at The Memorial and Masters tournaments where tour vans are prohibited from the tournament grounds. Mitchell® Golf has again been invited by Augusta National to staff its club repair shop for this year’s 2008 Masters Tournament making it 15 years that Mitchell® Golf has serviced the clubs of the invitees of the tournament.
Made in the USA, Steelclub® and TourGauge® Angle Machines continue to set the standard in the golf industry. Mitchell® machines are dominate in retail stores and at golf professionals’ shops that offer the same “tour van” repair service for their customers that tour pros get. With the new USGA club adjustability rule, more facilities than ever are offering ‘tour van” repairs with Mitchell® machines.
