E21 Unveils the New Emc(2) Line of Clubs at the PGA Golf Show's Demo Day
TORONTO, Jan 29, 2007 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- Element 21 Golf Company ("e21") (EGLF) (FRANKFURT: BJQ), a manufacturer of advanced Scandium Alloy golf equipment, introduced its new line of Emc(2) clubs at the PGA Golf Show's Demo Day held in Orlando, Florida.
Introduced at the Demo Day for the first time to hundreds of US and International retailers and distributors were Emc(2) irons, wedges, hybrids and golf bags. Also unveiled was the prototype 460cc Emc(2) Scandium/composite driver. Thousands of balls were hit with tremendous feedback on all products. One club pro was quoted as saying, "The combination of improved distance and accuracy and the remarkable feel of your Emc(2) irons are very impressive." Other comments included; "Your shafts feel like butter," "I have never hit my irons so straight" and "Your ShockBlok(TM) feature is certainly as advertised. While I have bad tendonitis I've been hitting balls for close to an hour and feel no pain whatsoever."
"The reaction to our Emc(2) products at the Demo Day and subsequently at our booth and hitting center at the show has been extremely positive," commented Mr. Bill Dey, e21's Chief Operating Officer. "We are very pleased to offer consumers clubs that can lower their handicaps by providing increased distance, improved accuracy and consistency. We have spent considerable time and resources designing the Emc(2) line. Our designer Mark Myrhum has done a tremendous job improving the performance, playability and look of all our golf products."
Also launched at the PGA Show was the new "space-inspired" look of the company with its crisp orange and black logo stating simply e21, on a clean white background. The aggressive coloring is a reflection of the cutting-edge technology e21 has brought the golf industry, and can be seen on the cover of Golf Today, a special-edition which was circulated exclusively at the PGA Show.
The Emc(2) two-piece construction irons (2-LW) are progressively offset to maximize trajectory. The wide sole makes it easy to get proper launch angles from all lies and the hollow design provides an increased Moment of Inertia (MOI) for greater accuracy on off-center hits. Emc(2) iron heads are made with an ultra high strength steel face plate for increased ball speed while saving weight for optimizing Center of Gravity (CG).
Emc(2) hybrids (18 degrees, 20 degrees, 23 degrees, and 26 degrees) are also Progressively Offset and made with an ultra high strength steel face plate. Weight is strategically placed in the head for low CG and ease of launch while the CNC milled scrorelines control width and depth and are the maximum allowed by the USGA.
Each iron and hybrid is Contact Signature Tuned (CST(TM)) to e21's Scandium shafts for true contact with the ball. All new products continue to feature e21's game improving Scandium Alloy Eagle One shafts.
