BALTIMORE, MD. – June 15, 2011 – STX Golf, world-renowned as an industry pioneer in putter innovation, and for its patented Soft Face Insert Technology, announced today that their 2011 Club Championship Promotion officially begins the same week as the 111th US Open.
As the best golfers from around the world tee it up at Congressional to try and capture the coveted US Open Championship, golfers everywhere will be competing to win their own club championship. According to STX Director of Golf Steve Henneman, “To win a club championship is a real honor. It takes time, practice, and skill to be the best at any club. STX wants to reward these avid golfers by giving them the latest in putter technology, so we are offering them their choice of any STX Putter. We are confident that our putters will help these Champions take home more trophies.”
STX Golf will be awarding one putter to every club champion at each STX account. The promotion will begin on the first day of the US Open – June 16th and will continue throughout the summer to allow time for each club championship to be decided. To enter into the 2011 STX Club Championship Promotion, simply fill out the Club Champion information sheet and fax it to 1-855-STX-PUTT. The Club Championship Promotion is available to every STX account. If a golf course is not a current STX account, they can still qualify by setting up an account with STX during the promotion period.
Testing shows STX Putters have almost twice the dwell time of putters with harder inserts and nearly three times the dwell time of metal faced putters. The difference is due to the high coefficient of friction (COF) that is chemically engineered into each STX insert. The high COF results in unequaled precision on the greens. STX inserts also provide the signature STX “Feel”, which holds the ball on the face longer to impart topspin and improve the feel of the putter.
For a variety of responses and feel, STX Putters are available with black, red and green insert options. The black insert is the softest in the STX line. It delivers the highest friction and resilience rate, plus increased dwell time. Those characteristics are chemically formulated to get the ball rolling sooner and keep your putts on line. For a medium resiliency rate, the red insert offers an intermediate amount of dwell time for golfers that prefer a harder feel. And, for golfers who prefer the feel of a steel putter, the green insert provides a harder feel with less resilience
About STX:
STX is acknowledged as being the golf industry’s foremost authority on insert face technology. Over a quarter century ago, the company introduced the first patented soft face insert, creating the “softest legal face in golf.” Following this advancement, the company introduced the first USGA approved interchangeable face insert and removable weight system. Both these and other innovations have helped create the standards for putter design today.
