BUFFALO, NY – OnCore Golf, the Buffalo, New York-based golf ball company is the presenting Golf Ball Sponsor for the upcoming Long Drive World Series taking place in the United Kingdom on Saturday July 8th, 2017 at the The Royal County of Berkshire Polo Club in Windsor.
In March, OnCore unveiled their first-ever Tour ball-the ELIXRTM. Their most advanced ball release yet, the ELIXR™ upholds OnCore’s commitment to innovation and technology while diversifying the company’s portfolio of golf balls to meet the needs of all player performance levels.
Bringing together a one-of-a-kind mix of advanced materials, the ELIXR™’s tri-phase constructed technology features original chemistry blends with added advanced material elements to deliver a unique combination of distance, spin, control and feel off the face of the club.
“OnCore is putting the ELIXR™ to the test here, with swing speeds well over 140+ MPH we are confident that our ball will rise to the occasion at the Long Drive World Series,” said OnCore Golf CEO Keith Blakely. “It was a no-brainer for the partnership as the ELIXR™ has pushed right up to the limit of maximum velocity allowed by the USGA’s Rules of Golf. Since March, players of all skill levels have told us about their highly positive experiences with the ball – the speed, accuracy, and distance it delivers – and we believe it now represents the new standard for ball performance.”
Some heavy hitters in attendance for the Long Drive World Series include OnCore’s own, Ryan Steenberg, 2016 World Long Drive runner-up and ranked 8th in the world, London-born Joe Miller, the current and two-time World Champion, and Tim Burke, winner of the Dubai leg of this year’s Long Drive World Series.
With an 85-compression rating and a 318-dimple pattern, the three-piece ELIXR™ combines a polybutadiene rubber core’s unique cross-linked polymer additives for exceptional ball speed; increased perimeter weighting due to a proprietary polymer mantle infused with high density particles for enhanced accuracy and control; and a cast urethane cover to deliver a soft and pure feel off the club face for ultimate greenside handling and durability.
Initial reviews of the ELIXR™ are overwhelmingly positive – spanning industry professionals at the 2017 PGA Merchandise Show to nearly two-dozen Tour professionals across the PGA, LPGA, Champions and Web.com Tours who have played the product.
The technology behind the new ELIXR™ Tour ball, along with OnCore’s other highly-regarded golf balls, the AVANT and the CALIBER, can be seen at www.OnCoreGolf.com.
