Lamkin Joins ClubmakingWIRESAN DIEGO, California, October 13, 2005 - Specializing in technically advanced, Tour-quality golf grips, Lamkin announces it has joined ClubmakingWIRE.com, golf’s only on-line wire service exclusively for golf equipment news. Lamkin grips are played by numerous PGA Tour players, and Lamkin has developed a strong reputation for designing advanced and innovative golf grips that provide comfort, feel and performance. “Custom fitting is a rapidly growing segment of the golf industry, and Lamkin is committed to staying at the forefront by providing the kind of technical information and product news that is important to clubmakers,” says Bob Lamkin, president and CEO of Lamkin Corporation. “We’re excited to be working with ClubmakingWIRE, and we look forward to establishing a more direct line of communication with golfers and custom clubmakers.” A family-owned and operated business for more than 80 years, Lamkin has a long history in custom club fitting, a process which today makes club selection easier for many mid- to high-handicap golfers. While most manufacturers and fitting professionals expertly correct a player’s clubhead loft and/or shaft flex, some mistakenly underestimate the importance of the grip, a critical fitting factor that can improve players’ confidence and increase their overall enjoyment of the game. Thus, Lamkin is dedicated to educating golfers on the benefits of custom-fit grips and to providing custom clubmakers with the highest quality, most innovative grip designs in golf. Lamkin has been the chosen grip supplier for nearly every major golf club manufacturer and the preferred grip of professional golfers worldwide. From the new Dual-Density Crossline to the Perma-Wrap Classic and original Crossline, every Lamkin grip features the technical innovation and exacting performance standards that have set the industry standard for more than 80 years.
