Lamkin Grips Win Around the World

SAN DIEGO, California, May 15, 2007 —SAN DIEGO —With superior stability, comfort and traction, Lamkin grips dominated pro tour events around the world with three victories this weekend. The original Crossline, Crossline Half Cord and Royal Sand Wrap models manufactured by Lamkin together garnered more than $2.17 million in first--place winnings.

“Pro players around the world rely on Lamkin grips to give them a competitive advantage, and we’re very excited with three tour victories this weekend,” says Bob Lamkin, president and CEO of Lamkin Corporation. “Lamkin grips continue to lead the industry in advanced material engineering and performance-enhancing innovation, and already this year we’ve chalked up multiple wins on every pro tour in the world.”

Among this weekend’s winning grips is the Lamkin Crossline, the winningest grip in Lamkin history. The Crossline grip features a proprietary M2 rubber compound that adds tack and durability while the distinctive pattern increases hand-traction and reduces torque for ultimate performance. The Crossline pattern is available on a variety of models, including full cord, mid-size, jumbo, ladies and junior. The Royal Sand Wrap grip has been a staple on the PGA Tour for several seasons and even won two majors within the last year. The Royal Sand Wrap provides excellent traction with a tacky material composition and an innovative sand-like surface texture.

“At Lamkin, we‘ve spent more than 80 years specializing in innovative golf grip design,” adds Lamkin, “and no other grip company in the world even comes close to our years of experience.”

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 information on Lamkin grips, call 800.642.7755 or visit www.lamkingrips.com.
