Ocean Isle, NC June, 17 2008 – Evolve Golf, Inc.
News Summary
· Evolve Golf – maker of the No. 1 performance golf tee on Tour – confirms that four of the top-10 finishers at the 2008 U.S. Open relied on its patented Epoch tee.
· The Epoch golf tee has won 101 times on the major tours since its 2004 debut, including 28 wins on the PGA Tour.
· The Epoch is the only performance tee with radius posts that span the width of a golf ball dimple. This unique feature creates the lowest coefficient of friction of any tee, eliminating deflection at impact and increasing ball speed and control off the tee.
· The Epoch has been scientifically proven via a series of rigorous independent robotic tests combined with extensive player testing to provide improvements of up to 12 yards distance and 9 yards accuracy.
· In addition to its performance advantages, Epoch – like all Evolve Golf products – is completely sustainable. Made entirely from recycled and renewable materials, the mower-friendly design lasts 10-times longer than a wooden tee.
