PGA TOUR Partners Selects Eidolon V-SOLE® Wedges for Player Testing
(November 15th 2005) PORT O’CONNOR, Texas – The Eidolon V-SOLE™ wedges were recently selected by PGA TOUR Partners Magazine as part of its comprehensive member-testing program. As published in the magazine’s Nov./Dec. issue, “Utilizing patented V-SOLE technology, the Eidolon V-SOLE wedges offer consistent performance from the sand, rough, fairway and tight lies.”
Results of the player testing will be published in the Jan./Feb. 2006 issue of the magazine.
“We’re excited to be included in the PGATOUR Partners Club testing program,” says Terry Koehler, president of Eidolon Golf and former Ben Hogan executive. “Members of the PGATOUR Partners Club are among the most interactive and involved readership in the golf industry today, and we’re confident that our premium V-SOLE wedges will achieve a stellar rating.”
Eidolon’s patented V-SOLE line-up represents a significant innovation in high-performance wedges, offering more spin, more control and extreme versatility. With V-SOLE Technology, the leading edge of the wedge’s sole — about one-quarter of an inch — has an aggressive bounce (18 degrees on the 52-degree Gap wedge, 30 degrees on the 56-degree wedge, and 25 degrees on the 60-degree wedge) which ensures that the leading edge never digs into the turf. The primary rear portion of the sole features minimal bounce — three degrees on the 52 gap wedge, seven degrees on the 56 mid-wedge and six degrees on the 60 lob wedge for improved playability from tight lies. In addition to its patented sole design, Eidolon painstakingly CNC-mills the face and every individual groove in each wedge — a revolutionary extra step that is a cut above most mass-produced wedges. This precision milling achieves nearly 100 percent of the groove specifications allowed by the USGA, as compared with as low as 60 to 70 percent of allowed groove volume common to standard production wedges.
