PrideSports Debuts Softspikes® ClubGrip™ ... The Fastest Way
To Apply A New Golf Grip
Provides More Comfort, Tack And Absorbency Than
Traditional Golf Grips; Golfers Can Now Enhance Grips For A
Fraction Of The Cost & In Less Than Half The Time Spent On
Conventional Re-Gripping
Brentwood, Tennessee, January 30, 2009 … PrideSports,
maker of Softspikes® cleats, the #1 Cleat brand on TOUR, has
once again challenged conventional thinking with the debut of
Softspikes® ClubGrip™, the first-ever golf "grip wrap" to enter
the market, and which meets USGA specifications.
Designed to provide superior tack, more comfort, and greater
absorbency than traditional grips, the new Softspikes ClubGrip
allows golfers to enhance their grips for a fraction of the
cost, and in less than half the time spent on traditional
re-gripping. During a challenging economic golf climate, the
ClubGrip brings a cost effective solution to traditional
re-gripping, without compromising performance. In fact,
Softspikes ClubGrip has the feel, durability and cushioning of
today's high performance grips, yet requires no tools for the
re-gripping process.
Golfers looking to re-grip a 14-club set traditionally
will spend in excess of $100. However, with Softspikes ClubGrip,
golfers can now have the same results for less than $30.
Answering the same alternative grip solution that was proven
successful in the tennis industry, ClubGrip is ideal in all
weather conditions and is a versatile product that can be used
to enhance new or worn grips. Installation is a wrapping method
that takes about one minute per club and involves simply
applying ClubGrip over existing grips, eliminating the need for
a vice, double-sided tape, knife, or solvent, which are required
with standard re-gripping methods.
"Sometimes the simplest solutions answer the greatest
demands, and that is the case with Softspikes ClubGrip," said
Joe Zeller, President, PrideSports. "For years golfers have
struggled with both the cost and labor intensive process
involved in re-gripping golf clubs. Now, we've developed a
simple, low-cost solution to making golf grips look and feel
like new, while performing at the high-level of today's premier
golf grips."
Debuting at retail outlets nationwide in spring 2009, Softspikes
ClubGrip, which is available to consumers in black or green
colors, is offered in a three-pack set with a Suggested Retail
Price of $4.99. Consumers can also purchase individual rolls for
a Suggested Retail Price of $1.50. For more information, visit
