Evolve Golf's Epoch Performance Tees Used by Four Top-10 Finishers at 2008 U.S. Open
Press Release

Evolve Golf -- maker of the No. 1 performance golf tee on Tour -- confirms that four of the top-10 finishers at the 2008 U.S. Open relied on its patented Epoch tee. A part of 101 major Tour wins -- including 28 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.

"The U.S. Open is among the most demanding tests in golf," says BJ Maloy, Evolve Golf Founder and CEO. "On a course like Torrey Pines where both distance and accuracy are essential, the Epoch tee provides the ideal platform to launch the ball straight and far."

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.
