IRVINE, Calif. (PRIMEZONE) -- Element 21 Golf Company (OTCBB:EGLF) has announced that it has received a substantial purchase order from The GolfWorks for E21's metal shafts. E21 shafts will be featured on the cover of the May 2005 issue of The GolfWorks catalog that will reach hundreds of thousands of golf enthusiasts and professional club builders. The GolfWorks audience is the first to try new shaft technologies and is considered an ideal conduit of information to the larger golf community that industry sources estimate to re-shaft over 20 million clubs per year.
E21 also reports that it has added several new sales professionals to its growing network of North American sales representatives. "We currently have 18 representatives in place all of whom have begun meeting with off-course golf stores and on-course pro shops," stated E21's President and CEO, Nataliya Hearn, Ph.D., P.E. The media coverage across the United States is fueling interest in the company and the E21 technology platform. "The reaction to our E21 irons has been very positive. Face to face meeting with key buyers in association with product Demo Days will be our focus over the next several months. We are finding that once people try our new Eagle One irons they are hooked," commented Hearn.
The Pub Links Golfer Magazine awarded E21's irons with their prestigious "2005 Players Choice Award for Feel." All player and robotic tests clearly point to the improved distance over composite and steel shafts by up to 9 yards and 15% better accuracy, while reducing shaft vibration by up to 300%. This translates into better golf equipment across all categories as have been demonstrated by E21 wedges, irons and prototypes of utility clubs and drivers.
For shaft sales Element 21 Golf Company will utilize its sales force to promote the new E21 Metal technology and direct professional club builders interest in Scandium components to The GolfWorks.
