MacNeill Engineering Worldwide – The World Leader in Sport Cleat Technology® and maker of innovative CHAMP spikes, high-performance golf tees and accessories – congratulates Ryan Winther and Eric Lastowka on capturing the open and senior division titles, respectively, at the 2012 RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship.

Provider of the Official Spikes and Tees of Long Drivers of America, CHAMP ensured all participants maximized distance by using its cleats and the eco-friendly Zarma FLYtees. Outfitted in the company’s technologically-advanced ScorpionSTINGER™ spikes, Winther blasted a 343-yard shot on the way to earning his first RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship. For his part, Lastowka secured the senior division title with an astounding 355-yard drive.

“The torque generated by these competitors is remarkable and our spikes ensure that no matter how hard they swing, traction won’t be a problem,” says Harris MacNeill, President and CEO of CHAMP/MacNeill Engineering Worldwide. “Not to be overlooked in the pursuit of distance is our FLYtee, which greatly reduces friction at impact, resulting in longer, straighter drives.”

Contested at the Mesquite Sports and Events Complex in Nevada, the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship will be broadcast nationally on ESPN, December 23, 2012 at 2:30pm EST and ESPN2 on December 30, 2012 at 2pm EST.

The #1 Brand on Tour®, CHAMP spikes were used by three of the four major winners in 2012 and have been trusted by the champion at 30 of the past 40 majors.

Beyond the cleat category, the company offers a wide range of products, including the FLYtee™. Drawing from MacNeill Engineering’s unrivalled 80-year heritage, the FLYtee line has quickly become one of the most-used tees by leading professionals worldwide. Made with durable, environmentally-friendly materials, its six-pronged head and shallow cup reduces friction, increases distance and improves accuracy.

With more than 100 active distributors, CHAMP is the world’s largest manufacturer of replaceable cleats. The company produces more than 125 million spikes annually and is the dominant global brand in football, soccer, golf, baseball, cricket, rugby and other sports.

Champ To Showcase “My Hite” FlyTee, Flix Divot Tool And Tour-Proven Spikes Line At PGA Fall Expo, Booth 617

 

August 13, 2012   Posted in Company News, Events, News and Events

CHAMP/MacNeill Engineering Worldwide – The World Leader in Sport Cleat Technology® and maker of innovative CHAMP spikes, high-performance golf tees and accessories – will showcase the new “My Hite” Zarma FLYTee, Flix Divot Tool, Tour-proven spike line and other products at the PGA Fall Expo, booth 617, Aug. 20-22 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The official tee of Demo Night – Aug. 20, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Callaway Golf Center – the Zarma FLYTee will be used in all club testing areas. Designed with a six-pronged head and shallow cup, this unique tee reduces friction for improved distance and accuracy. New MyHite models feature colored bands around the stem, so golfers can quickly and easily place the ball at a consistent height, ensuring repeatable performance.

Five-times more durable than traditional wooden options, the Zarma FLYTee is constructed using a market-proven bio-agent additive created by ECM Biofilms, Inc. This enables microorganisms to metabolize the plastic into humus, an organic matter which benefits the environment. The tees help facilities dramatically improve course operations, appearance and profitability by reducing consumption, decreasing tee litter and lowering purchasing expenses.

“Whether its spikes, tees or accessories, our goal is always to help golfers of all skill levels maximize performance,” says Harris MacNeill, President and CEO of CHAMP/MacNeill Engineering Worldwide. “The Fall Expo is an exceptional venue from which to showcase our latest innovations to existing and prospective customers.”

CHAMP will also display its FLIX Divot Repair Instrument featuring a fun-to-use and practical “switchblade” design. The company’s most ergonomic offering yet, it’s an essential accessory for any golfer who cares about course conditions. Heavy duty enough to handle stubborn divots, yet collapsible with the push of a button, the new FLIX tool can be comfortably stored without fear of damaging pocket linings.

Catering to a variety of personal preferences, the device is available in orange, lime green, pink, black and white. A tremendous way for facilities and outing planners to uniquely promote their brands and functions, it features a magnetically attached ball-marker that can be customized to include company, club or event logos and names.

The #1 Brand on Tour®, CHAMP is widely known for its acclaimed ScorpionSTINGER™ and recently-launched Zarma® spikes with patented cushion technology. Both are designed to ensure maximum traction, stability and comfort in all weather conditions.

With more than 100 active distributors, CHAMP is the world’s largest manufacturer of replaceable spikes. The company produces more than 140 million spikes annually and is the dominant global brand in football, soccer, golf, baseball, cricket, rugby and other sports.
