FLIGHTPATH performance golf tees lead to success for Maurice Allen, Winner of the 2018 Volvik World Long Drive Championship
ORLANDO, Fla. – World Long Drive professional Maurice Allen, who endorses and has found the competitive advantage using FLIGHTPATH performance golf tees, won the Volvik World Long Drive Championship held August 30 – September 5 at the WinStar World Casino and Resort in Thackerville, Ok. Allen beat Justin Moose with a 393-yard strike on his final attempt in the final.
The 36-year-old Allen, from Pine Hills, Florida, hit first in the final round under the lights on Wednesday September 5th and watched as Moose came up short with a best of 382 yards. In the semifinals, Allen topped Josh Cassaday with a 393-yarder, and Moose edged Jim Waldron with a 387-yard drive.
Allen has been using FLIGHTPATH performance golf tees in practice and competition since the beginning of May. FLIGHTPATH’s patented tee design reduces frictional resistance, both laterally and centrally. This minimizes ball spin, increases directional control and increases distance. These properties are significant for long drive professionals who have to launch eight drives “inside the grid” within three minutes of competition.
“With my FLIGHTPATH tee I’m aimed at keeping the ball in the grid,” explains Allen, “Cause if you’re not in the grid, you can’t win.”
Allen was the former No. 1 ranked WLD competitor (2017), winning the Mile High Showdown, Catawba Classic, Tennessee Shootout and international Iganz (New Zealand) events during the ’17 season. Currently, he is #2 in the 2018 World Rankings, one spot behind the World #1 and last year’s World Long Drive Champion, Justin James.
“We designed a special elongated pink FLIGHTPATH golf tee for Maurice for the World Long Drive Championship, said Daniel Whalen, President of IGP Enterprises, manufacturers of FLIGHTPATH. “The head has a directional arrow built into the design and has been proven to reduce ball spin, increase directional control and distance through robotic testing. Maurice’s improved accuracy and best world ranking since joining the Tour in 2011 is proof.”
Allen is known for his charisma and outgoing personality. He enjoys giving back to his community and works with several youth organizations providing inner city kids the opportunity to learn golf while attaining skills to succeed in life.
