(Sunset Beach, NC) – Evolve Golf – maker of Epoch, The #1 Performance Golf Tee on Tour – will showcase the new Epoch-S3 model, as well as an enhanced range of color options, sustainable packaging and smaller “pro shop packs” at the 2010 PGA Merchandise Show (Booth #3009) in Orlando, FL, and for Demo Day testing at nearby Orange County National Golf Center.
Featuring the same innovative and durable design that has made the original Epoch the most popular performance tee on the PGA Tour, the Epoch-S3 incorporates the company’s groundbreaking Sweet Spot System, a proprietary internet application. It takes the guess work out of consistently teeing at the proper height by aligning the ball with the driver’s “sweet spot,” assuring optimum distance on every drive. Players simply enter a make and model of driver and the recommended depth of insertion is displayed, which coincides with markings on the tee stem.
Various new cosmetic options are available as part of the company’s 2010 catalogue, including a “natural” finish for the Epoch and a variety of vibrant colors for the Vireo-S3 line. The company will also introduce smaller “pro shop packs” of both Epoch and Vireo tees with an MSRP under $2.00, specifically for green grass shops.
“We’re continuing to push the technology envelope with new, eco-friendly products which help improve player performance,” says BJ Maloy, Founder and CEO of Evolve Golf. “The Epoch-S3, in particular, is a leading edge design that significantly cuts back on the needless waste of natural resources caused by wooden tee manufacturing while providing the golfer with an intuitive custom tee height solution for optimizing the player’s performance.”
Since 2004, Evolve Golf products have been a part of 124 major Tour wins, including 46 PGA Tour victories. 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. The Vireo features a wider, deeper cup for greater stability than traditional wood tees. Made from recycled materials, Evolve products are far more durable than their wooden counterparts and not harmful to mower blades.
The Epoch tee recently finished at the top of GolfTest USA’s 2009 “Comprehensive Golf Tee Test,” besting the competing designs from the other leading manufacturers.
