Winners of PGA, Champions, and Web.com tour events all wear Softspikes/PrideSports
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., October 16, 2012 … Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat in Golf, was a force to be reckoned with on the Tour scene this weekend, winning the PGA, Champions, and Web.com Tour events, respectively. Softspikes/PrideSports claimed 57% of the plastic cleat field at The Frys.com Open with 22 of the top 29 finishers donning the brand. Meanwhile, 30 of the players that finished T-29 or better at the Web.com Tour’s Miccosukee Championship also put their confidence in Softspikes/PrideSports.
At the Champions Tour’s Great Hickory Classic at Rock Barn, Softspikes’ PINS insert system assisted in a one stroke victory at the Classic’s 10th anniversary event. The PINS system also landed in the top 4 at both the Frys.com Open and the Miccosukee Championship. Players are quickly discovering how PINS provides improved balance, feel, and lateral stability.
“New insert systems only come around every few years,” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “and since being introduced initially for Adidas, PINS has been recognized for it’s success.”
Softspikes’ patented Dynamic Cleat Technology allows its cleats to be responsive to all terrains – Tee Boxes, Fairways, Roughs, Greens, etc – providing confidence on every swing of the club. In other words, longer drives, better iron shots and lower scores. For more information on Softspikes, please visit www.softspikes.com.
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.
