Three Top-10 Finishers Rely on Epoch Performance Tees

Ocean Isle, NC May 9, 2008 – Evolve Golf, Inc.  

News Summary

• Evolve Golf – maker of the No. 1 performance golf tee on Tour – confirms that three of the top-10 finishers at last week’s Wachovia Championship relied on its patented Epoch tee.
• A part of 100 major Tour wins — including 27 PGA Tour victories — since its 2004 debut, Epoch is the only performance tee with radius posts that span the width of a golf ball dimple. This unique feature creates the lowest coefficient of friction of any tee, eliminating deflection at impact and increasing ball speed and control off the tee.
• The Epoch has been scientifically proven via a series of rigorous independent robotic tests combined with extensive player testing to provide improvements of up to 12 yards distance and 9 yards accuracy.
• In addition to its performance advantages, Epoch – like all Evolve Golf products – is completely sustainable. Made entirely from recycled and renewable materials, the mower-friendly design lasts 10-times longer than a wooden tee.

Improved Durability, New Sizes and Shaft Design for Tour’s No. 1 Performance Tee

Ocean Isle, NC, April 30, 2008 – Evolve Golf, Inc

News Summary

• Evolve Golf announces a new version of its popular Epoch – the No. 1 performance tee on Tour – combining a slimmer shaft and new lengths for easier insertion into the ground with an enhanced construction that is up to 10 times more durable than wooden tees.
• The Epoch is now available in 3-¼” and 2-¾” heights as well as a 1-½” version designed specifically for use with fairway woods, irons and today’s must-have hybrids.
• A part of 99 major Tour wins since its 2004 debut, including an impressive 27 PGA Tour victories, Epoch is the only tee with radius posts that span the width of a golf ball dimple. This patented design creates the lowest coefficient of friction of any tee, eliminating deflection at impact and increasing ball speed and control off the tee leading to significant improvements in distance and accuracy. Since the enhanced version was introduced early this season on the PGA Tour, no player to try the tee in competition has stopped using it.
• In addition to its performance advantages, the Epoch also furthers Evolve Golf’s mission to be a completely sustainable company. Epoch tees are made entirely from recycled and renewable materials that are substantially more resilient than tees made from wood, corn or bamboo. As a result, one Epoch tee can last an entire round or more. 
• Retailing at just $6.95 per 50-pack, the Epoch tee is highly affordable and provides the greatest price-to-performance benefit of any golf technology introduced the past 25 years. A player stands to see far greater dollar-for-dollar distance and accuracy improvement with Epoch than with any other piece of equipment in the bag.

“The Epoch’s new, more durable design is great for both golfers and courses,” says BJ Maloy, Evolve Golf Founder and CEO. “The average person uses five to seven wooden tees each round, which wastes resources, increases costs for the golf facility and creates an unsightly mess around teeing areas. Our product helps players perform better and significantly reduces the amount of tees needed to play a round of golf.”

“Since switching over to Evolve’s tees there’s been a noticeable reduction in tee litter,” says John Lavelle, Superintendent of Diamond Creek GC in Banner Elk, NC. “It’s rare that we see a broken tee anymore, and if we do it’s a wood tee.”
