ALPHA GOLF DRIVERS EARN THREE REMAX WORLD LONG DRIVE CHAMPIONSHIP
TITLES
DURING AT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS
Alpha Golf Enjoys Breakthrough Performance At Long Drive's
Premier Event
Chatsworth, CA, October 23, 2003 --
Alpha Reaction drivers were used to earn three titles at the
recently completed 2003 ReMax
World Long Drive Championship, which was held at the Palms Golf
Club in Mesquite,
Nevada. Navarrete of Broomfield, Colorado won the Girls Junior
B division and
Joe Raimonda won the Boys Junior A division using Alpha Golf
drivers.
Raimonda wowed the crowd with a 351 yard bomb that brought the
fans to their feet.
Eric Jones won the Men's Senior division title with a drive of
381 yards, 33
inches. Jones used his Alpha Golf C830-2
to beat out Kurt Moore's drive of 381
yards, 4 inches. Moore used an Alpha
C830-2 losing out by only 29 inches. Jones
won the contest on his sixth and final ball in what was the nightâs
most
exciting finish.
Alpha Golf drivers are definitely the hottest new products
in long drive. In
addition to the victories they earned, many ReMax competitors
switched to
Alpha Golf products as they conducted last minute equipment tests
before the
competition began. In the men's open division, professional long
drive veteran and
star David Mobley earned a third place finish with a 394 yard
drive and Alpha
Golf staff members Greg Wellong and Vince Howell earned 6th and
9th place
finishes, respectively. Steve Stepp earned a fifth place finish
in the Super
Seniors division and LPGA Tour veteran Sally Dee took sixth in
the women's open
division. The 2000 ReMax World Long Drive Champion Viktor Johansson
and defending
2002 ReMax Champion Carl Wolter also used Alpha Golf drivers
in Mesquite. Dur
ing the four days of the ReMax Championship competition, Alpha
Golf
representatives had trouble keeping up with the growing demand
for what many long drive
competitors are calling "the hottest driver in golf".
"With our new C830-2 and 425cc Version 2 (V2) drivers,
we have clearly come
up with a product that these competitors believe is superior,"
Alpha Golf's
Dorian Zuleta stated. "We expect that we could be the number
one driver in pro
long drive next year, based on the feedback we have been getting.
We also expect
to have an excellent shot at winning again at the LDA Tour Championship
on
November 8th. We are really excited by the reaction to our products."
"I am so thankful that Jerry Trask of 'Dynamic Golf'
recommended Alpha Golf
to me," Senior Division ReMax Champion Jones began. "After
testing five
different drivers, the C830-2 had the most solid feel and gave
me significantly more
distance. If I did not have my C830-2, I don't know if I would
have had enough
to beat out Kurt and win the title. It was a great thrill and
I am thankful
that Alpha Golf makes such a great product. I can't wait to compete
with my
Alpha driver at the Long Drivers of America Tour Championship
in Dallas in two
weeks and try to bring Alpha Golf another title!"
Immediately following Eric Jones' "sixth ball" drive
that put him into the
lead, Eric got down on his knee during an interview with ESPN
and proposed to
his girlfriend, who was sitting in the stands. In front of a
cheering crowd, she
appeared to say "yes" to Eric's proposal. Find out
for yourself and watch all the
long drive action during the Christmas Eve broadcast of the ReMax
World Long
Drive Championship on ESPN.

Alpha Golf Earns Another Victory at SMT/ACCUFLEX Long Drive
Challenge.
Alpha Golf enjoys first and second place finishes at SMT and
Accuflex sponsored event.
CHATSWORTH, CA, November 3, 2003-- Alpha Golf drivers were used
to earn first and second place finishes at the SMT/ACCUFLEX Challenge
at the Plantation Park in Byron, Georgia. Kevin Bullard of Georgia
won the challenge, while David Mobley of North Carolina finished
second. Both athletes were using the Alpha C830.2 460cc Titanium

for Alpha golf and its high performance C830.2 driver. The new

a full head of steam. The SMT/ACCUFLEX sponsored event featured
forty-eight athletes. Kevin and David were both driving past
