(Carlsbad, CA) – April 8, 2008 – Cutting edge geometry technology is pushed to the max with HiPPO’s innovative new driver. HiPPO Golf Company today announced the introduction of the HEX TX, the next evolution of the wildly successful HEX” driver, designed to meet the needs of the most demanding players.
Featuring a dynamic head shape with V-slot sole, the Hex TX boasts maximum (5300 plus) MOI and the highest legal COR (.830), resulting in raw power, faster club head speed, and longer, straighter drives. The unique V-slot sole design and aerodynamic side slots help generate greater club head speed while the super light multi step crown allows for optimum weight repositioning to the rear corners with two 4 gram weight ports.
“Our HEX” driver has been extremely successful since its introduction last year and we wanted to take it to the next level with the design of our new driver,” commented David Dixon, CEO of HiPPO Golf Company, Inc. “We are happy to say we’ve accomplished our goal with the HEX TX. This driver has incredibly explosive power and the highest MOI we have ever produced.”
The HEX TX delivers a better ball flight with tighter shot dispersion even with aggressive off center hits. The Beta Titanium sole and crown, and super hard SP700 titanium face coupled with a unique geometric shape result in the ultimate performance driver design yet.
The HEX TX is powered by Hippo’s proprietary Mitsubishi Rayon CP4 shaft and is also available with the hot new Grafalloy ProLaunch Platinum shaft as an upgrade. Both options are available and began shipping April 1 in right-handed only with stiff, regular and extra stiff flexes and loft selections of 9.5, 10.5 or 12 degrees and left hand lofts will be available mid June. The Hippo dual cord grip (upper half cord, lower half soft compound) is standard and provides incredible feel and control.
The HEX TX with Mitsubishi Rayon CP4 shaft carries an MSRP of $249.00, while the Grafalloy ProLaunch Platinum shaft has an MSRP of $299.00. Either option provides golfers with a high performance club at an incredible value.
