(Granbury, TX: January 15, 2014) HIRZL, the leading specialist for high performance sports gloves, is pleased to announce that Tim Burke, the 2013 RE/MAX World Long Drive Champion will be visiting the HIRZL booth, #1679, during the upcoming PGA Merchandise Show on Thursday, January 23nd from 1-2 p.m.
“With so much riding on every single swing, HIRZL’s grip-enhancing glove is one of my most trusted and valuable pieces of equipment, said Burke. “Wearing their product gives me confidence in knowing that I have the best glove in golf and all I need to do is worry about performing. I look forward to meeting with golfers, PGA professionals and the media to discuss the secrets to hitting the ball longer and father and the importance of having a secure grip on the club.”
“With a swing speed exceeding 150 miles per hour and competing against the world’s longest drivers, wearing a glove that can withstand extreme wear and tear while providing superior grip was a key factor in helping Tim capture his first world championship and the $250,000 first place prize,” stated Steve Gray, Vice President of HIRZL North America.
HIRZL is a global pioneer in high performance sports gloves where innovation and precision engineering is at the heart of the HIRZL philosophy and is supported by a focus on design excellence and top quality production.
