Itasca, IL (July 15, 2008) – “Buy Zip, Get Zero.” Wilson Golf and Excel Golf are teaming up in packaging the Wilson Staff Zip golf ball, a three-piece golf ball with the world’s first zero compression core and the Zero Friction Performance Golf Tee. When you buy a dozen of the Wilson Staff Zip balls, you will receive a 16 pack of the Zero Friction Golf Tees. What a great deal!
The Zero Friction Golf Tee and the award-winning Wilson Staff Zip golf ball are doing exceptionally well in the golf market today. The Zero Friction Performance Golf Tee’s patented three-prong design that significantly reduces the contact area between the tee and ball providing unparalleled distance and accuracy. Sitting on top of the Zero Friction Tee, the Wilson Staff Zip, features an ultra soft, rubber rich core that is highly resilient and offers shot-stopping control into and around the greens. The unique flat-bottomed shallow dimples allow the Zip to rip through the air and create a more stable penetrating flight for maximum distance. This makes the Zip/Zero combination impeccable on the course in terms of distance, feel, spin, and accuracy off the tee.
The Zero Friction Golf Tee is played on the PGA, LPGA, Champions, and Nationwide Tours and is the Official Tee of the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship and the Exceptional Driver Championship. For more information about the tee, please visit www.zftees.com.
