LOUISVILLE, KY (March 19, 2013) – Hillerich & Bradsby Co., maker of the RelaxGrip™ Bionic Golf Glove, announces that the Locker Room Managers Association has chosen its golf glove as “The Official Golf Glove of the Locker Room Managers Association.”
“We are thrilled that the Association chose Bionic because they are the only gloves on the market that feature technology that results in a better grip and improved durability,” said John Ballback, Bionic National Sales Manager.
“We’re excited to be involved with the LRMA and want green-grass and off-course stores to know that this significant organization has chosen our gloves over all those currently available on the market,” said Cheryl Fink, Director of Marketing for Bionic. “We’re dedicating ourselves to gaining momentum for the Bionic brand by becoming more active in green-grass stores while maintaining existing relationships with off-course shops. We’re looking forward to our partnership with the Locker Room Managers Association as one way of helping us achieve that goal.”
Not only does the organization boast the best and brightest at dozens of the most prestigious clubs in the United States, but its President – Todd Dufek – has been a single-digit handicap golfer for over 35 years, a locker room manager for more than 25 and a shoe repairman for 10. As he put it, “I’ve worn and performance-tested different brands of gloves, and there’s no question in my mind that Bionic has the best line of golf gloves currently on the market. The LRMA is proud to call the RelaxGrip Bionic Golf Glove ‘The Official Golf Glove of the Locker Room Managers Association.'”
