(Sunset Beach, NC) – Evolve Golf – maker of Epoch, The #1 Performance Golf Tee on Tour – will exhibit its full line of innovative products at the 2010 PGA Merchandise Show in a specially designed, ultra eco-friendly booth (#3009) that showcases the company’s dedication to sound environmental practices.
Recognized as one of the golf industry’s most environmentally-friendly companies, Evolve Golf’s popular performance tee lines and packaging are made completely from recycled materials. Taking this approach to another level at the PGA Merchandise Show, the company’s unique display booth will feature:
• A structure made completely from reclaimed river wood, dredged using historical research and sonar technology by the Cape Fear Riverwood company – dedicated to protecting living forests by relying on resources abandoned a century ago
• ECO ACT II banners from Banner Creations – a green printer since 1993 – which are made from 100-percent post consumer recycled PET bottles. Exceptionally durable, they offer great print quality through a dye sublimation process employing water-based inks
• FLOR carpet tiles made with renewable and recycled content, an ingenious flooring design system that blends form, function and a commitment to be environmentally responsible
“Since day one we have been dedicated to providing players and facilities with products that out perform competitors on the course and are as eco-friendly as possible,” says BJ Maloy, Founder and CEO of Evolve Golf. “This specially designed trade show booth is a representation of who we are as company and further expands our message of the importance of sustainability in the industry.”
The company will also be exhibiting the new Epoch-S3 model, as well as an enhanced range of color options, sustainable packaging and smaller “pro shop packs,” at this year’s PGA Show.
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.
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. Evolve products are far more durable than their wooden counterparts and not harmful to mower blades.
