The Darrell Survey Reports that the Winner and 18 of the Top 25 Graduates Wore Softspikes Brand Cleats in Competition
Brentwood, Tenn., December 8, 2009 … Softspikes®, the world’s best selling golf cleat brand, dominated the 2009 PGA Q-School tournament according to the Darrell Survey, as the winner donned Pulsar® cleats, the #1 Cleat on Tour, while 18 of the top 25 graduates also wore Softspikes brand products, including this year’s break out cleat, Black Widow® Tour™, golf’s first adjustable cleat.
“Q-School product usage is a strong benchmark for the future, and Softspikes’ showing on the leaderboards at this year’s PGA Q-School was outstanding,” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “We would like to congratulate the newest PGA TOUR players, and we are excited to have so many of these future stars wearing our cleat products.”
PrideSports was formed in January 2003 following Pride Manufacturing Company’s purchase of Softspikes, Inc., and its sister company Trisport, Ltd. of England. This acquisition essentially formed the world’s premier golf accessories company, as Pride and Softspikes are the world’s leading golf tee and golf cleat lines, respectively. Today, PrideSports is the world leader in the design and manufacture of cleats, spikes and receptacles for the entire golf footwear industry.
