Hi-Tec Golf soles worn at World Long Drive Championship

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. -- Hi-Tec Golf had over 20 participants in the REMAX World Long Drive Championship wearing the CDT® Power Technology. The WLDC was being held at The Palms GC in Mesquite, Nevada from October 24-29 and is the premier event in Professional Long Drive.

When the CDT Technology launched in 2004 at the Orlando PGA Show, Hi-Tec immediately had long drive competitors stopping by the booth to see this performance driven outsole. Since the launch there are over 20 contestants hitting in them each week at the long drive events globally.

“The long drive events are the perfect forum for us to prove that this outsole is purely developed around performance,” states Brian Bednarek, Director of Golf USA. “This type of competition brings an exciting dimension to golf involving power, accuracy and distance. The same can be said about the CDT® Power Technology used in the Hi-Tec Golf Collection.”

Launched over two years ago, Hi-Tec developed a technologically advanced outsole using biomechanics from Quintic Laboratories and the expertise of European golfer, Padraig Harrington. Most golfers understand that an increase in balance and stability can allow more distance and power. Hi-Tec created the CDT® Power to support this equation The components of the CDT® Power give the needed stability to, in turn, give a golfer the ability to swing harder and therefore hit longer.

This week Hi-Tec has put over 20 competitors in the CDT Power knowing there is no better place than these competitions to test this type of technology.

“The CDT has had a domino effect. We went into this week with ten players and word of mouth has doubled our exposure”, quotes Brian Bednarek, Director of Golf. “We wish all our athletes good luck and hope to see our technology at the top of the leaderboard on Sunday.”
