The Excel Golf Tee Company, manufacturer of the highly successful Zero Friction Golf Tee, the “Winningest” performance golf tee on the PGA Tour, announced today that their patented three-pronged tee was put into play at the US Open by a passionate European Professional who navigated the unforgiving Winged Foot Golf Club like a striking Cobra and tied for sixth place, his personal best at a major.
The Excel Golf Tee Company, manufacturer of the highly successful Zero Friction Golf Tee, the “Winningest” performance golf tee on the PGA Tour, announced today that their patented three-pronged tee was put into play at the US Open by a passionate European Professional who navigated the unforgiving Winged Foot Golf Club like a striking Cobra and tied for sixth place, his personal best at a major.
“Winged Foot played tough. The lethal combination of narrow fairways, punishing rough, and hard greens made it so difficult for these guys to shoot for par. When courses play this tough, we know that Zero Friction Golf Tees will be put into play,” says Mike Herron, Business Development Manager for Excel Golf Tee, Inc. “Hitting the fairway this past weekend was critical. The British born pro who relied on the Zero Friction Golf Tee ranked fourth in fairways hit. We at Excel know that Zero Friction’s reduced contact point contributed to this statistic. We’re thrilled he used our tee and that he claimed his first top-10 in a major.”
The Zero Friction Golf Tee significantly reduces the contact area between the golf ball and the tee. At impact, this small degree of contact reduction or resistance results in increased accuracy and distance. In an independent laboratory Zero Friction Golf Tees were proven to be the longest and most accurate tee used on Tour.
In addition to the ZF 2-¾” tee model, a new, longer, 3-¼” ZF tee model is now available and not only for the Professionals but for every golfer. And for the traditionalists, a new ZF Hardwood has begun shipping into the marketplace.
Golfers on the major professional tours use Zero Friction’s unique three-pronged teeing system to gain invaluable extra distance and to win thirteen tournaments. Nine of the victories came on the PGA Tour, three on the Nationwide Tour and one on the LPGA.
“We announce every time a Touring Professional uses our Zero Friction Golf Tee to win or place within the top-10 but last week another Professional used a Zero Friction Golf Tee to shoot under par which is a major accomplishment considering the course’s condition and he also finished respectfully in twelfth place.
Excel Golf Tees take great pride in the fact that PGA, Nationwide, and LPGA Professionals rely on the Zero Friction Golf Tee but the company also is a major sponsor of the Long Driver of America Association and is the Exclusive Golf Tee of the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship. The company has also signed long-driving legend Sean "The Beast" Fister to use and endorse the company's revolutionary Zero Friction Golf Tee.
Excel Golf Tee, Inc. of Itasca, IL, a full-service distributor of wooden golf tees serving the golf industry manufactures the entire Zero Friction Golf Tee line. Its goal is to provide the highest quality tees at an affordable price with timely and economical distribution.
