Press Release
Posted 2002-09-18
AccuFLEX Golf, Inc.
(www.accuflexgolf.com) announced today that Gerry James, considered one of
the top competitors on the professional Long Drive circuit and the current
2002 Pinnacle LDA Official Tour Money List leader, has joined AccuFLEX Golf
as one of its prestigious Elite Long Drive Team members. James, who hits a
GOLF GEAR 400cc, 7-degree "Tsunami" titanium driver mounted on a 50" XXX
shaft, will compete at the ReMax World Long Drive Championships next month in
Mesquite, Nevada. James is currently deciding whether he will hit AccuFLEX's
PRO LD or EXTREME LD shaft. James joins an ever-increasing list of the
sport's top competitors who are switching to AccuFLEX Golf shafts' from
other, more established shaft companies.
"I am so proud to be with AccuFLEX Golf due to the integrity of the company,
its people and the competitors on its Elite Long Drive team," James stated.
"I am thoroughly convinced, as well, that they also make the best shafts on
the market and AccuFLEX has shown a commitment to developing new Long Drive
shaft technology that is second to none. I couldn't be more excited."
In addition to being a part of professional Long Drive's upper echelon of
World Class competitors, Gerry James is a PGA professional, mini-tour player
with a +3 handicap and an outstanding teacher of the golf swing. James is
also a physical conditioning expert and is probably the most well-conditioned
athlete among his Long Drive peers.
"Gerry James is known as the most consistent of the top Long Driver's in the
world," AccuFLEX president Jody Baucom began. "Gerry's position atop the
Pinnacle LDA Official Tour Money List bears that out. We are honored that
Gerry has chosen to compete with our technology, which we feel is the best
available to Long Drivers and Tour professionals alike. Gerry James will be a
leader on our team and will be a great influence on our 'Young Guns': Chad
Roberts, Brent Surratt, Trez Simmons and Steve Magan, each of whom are in
their mid or early twenties and will really benefit from Gerry's work ethic.
Gerry James is an outstanding addition to our team and has to be considered
one of the favorites to win the World Championship next month in Mesquite."
