Lamkin Grips Dominate PGA & LPGA Tours

SAN DIEGO, California, April 3, 2007 — SAN DIEGO — Demonstrating tour-leading performance and innovation, Lamkin grips dominated the PGA and LPGA Tours this weekend and captured the top money. While Lamkin grips took four of the Top Eight money positions at the Shell Houston Open on the PGA Tour, three of the Top Four players at the Kraft Nabisco Championship on the LPGA Tour trusted Lamkin Crossline grips to deliver superior stability, comfort and traction.

“We’re very excited with our performance on the LPGA and PGA Tours this week, and the support Lamkin grips are receiving among pro tour players is growing every week,” says Bob Lamkin, president and CEO of the Lamkin Corporation.

>From Lamkin’s first Leather wraps and its renowned Crossline to the new Dual Density Torsion Control Tour Series, Lamkin grips continue to lead the industry in advanced material engineering and performance-enhancing innovation. The highly acclaimed Crossline Series, for example, remains a tour favorite and continues to prove itself as one of the most enduring grip designs in golf. Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, the Crossline provides the level of performance on which professional golfers rely, and the Crossline has already added four more pro tour wins this year to the model’s impressive total of 103 wins and 15 majors.

Engineered from a proprietary M2 rubber compound that provides greater tackiness and durability, the Crossline grip features the distinctive ‘Crossline’ pattern that increases hand-traction and reduces torque for ultimate performance. The combination of innovative design and material engineering has made the Crossline the winningest grip in Lamkin history.

“More and more players are realizing that high-performance grips provide a distinct competitive advantage,” adds Lamkin, “and we’ve specialized in innovative, performance-driven golf grip design for more than 80 years — longer than any other grip manufacturer in the world today.”

Lamkin Corporation has been the chosen grip supplier for nearly every major golf club manufacturer and the preferred grip of professional golfers worldwide for more than 80 years. For more information on Lamkin grips, call 800.642.7755 or visit www.lamkingrips.com.
