Evolve Golf – The Epoch Tee

Published

17 years ago

Mar 6, 2009

Honestly, I never had a preference for a particular tee. I was always more worried about the larger equipment for my game – namely my clubs. Mostly I would just use whichever wooden tee I happened to pick up at a demo day or attached to some golf apparel I acquired. Over the past weekend I played 18 holes with Evolve Golf’s Epoch Tees and actually noticed a difference. Pushing in to the ground was now smoother, more effortless. In addition, the same tee lasted for the entire round. Even the high-swing speed member of our foursome managed to only break one of the tees when using his driver where he would usually break the wooden tee at every other, if not every, tee box.

We first saw the Epoch at the PGA Merchandise Show. We were shown how the posts all hit the outsides of the dimples in the golf ball in an effort to be frictionless. In addition, we were told about the slim shaft of the tee – a fact that I noticed did offer easier insertion just as it is billed. However, the best part about the tees in my opinion is the sustainability factor. First introduced in 2004, the tees are made from renewable and recycled materials. In fact, Evolve is commiteed to being a completely sustainable company. The Epoch is touted to last 10 times longer than other traditional tees and the company uses recycled and renewable materials in its packaging, boxes, and trade show booths. Testimonials from courses claim that these tees reduce the amount of tee litter on the course.

Technology, testing, and other information from Evolve states that the Epoch:

– creates the lowest coefficient of friction between the ball and tee

– eliminates deflection at impact and increases ball speed and control off the tee

– scientifically proven via a series of rigorous independent robotic tests combined with extensive player testing at a wide range of swing speeds to increase distance by 3 to 12 yards and a 4 to 9 yard improvement in accuracy

– $6.95 for a pack of 50 provides a greater dollar-for-dollar distance and accuracy improvement than with a new high-tech driver, dozen golf balls, shaft, or any other piece of equipment

A reminder from your friends at GolfWRX: Father’s Day is June 21. And as we do every year, we’re rounding up the best gifts for dad.

As we say every year, there’s no better golf-related Father’s Day gift than a round of golf with pops. Be it a country club or your favorite muni, take the time to get together to play 18 if you can.

Let’s get to the gifts.

Ghost Golf Qualifier Diamond Polo

We like the new polos that Ghost is offering, as the fabric and fit are so good. These new Qualifier Collection polos breathe well, are lightweight, stretch with your swing, and of course look great. You can wear them on the course, in the office, or just out at a casual event and they will fit right in.

STR8-Strip Grip Tape Remover

If your dad is an equipment aficionado and tinkers with his clubs, this tool works wonders. Removing grip tape has never been easier, just put a little head on the tape and the STR8-Strip peals it right off the shaft without any damage.

Why Golf: Putting Thing

When it comes to practice, it is good to have a purpose. This “Putting Thing” sure does it. We know from personal experience how challenging it can be and how rewarding it is on the practice green. This also provides some competition for your kiddo to see who will unload the dishwasher or do the next chore around the house.

OluKai Lae‘ahi Men’s Breathable Slip-On Shoes

Riding to and from the course in style and comfort is always a good thing. If you’re in a hurry, it’s a nice feature to slide into your shoes and get to the tee time. For the post-game shoe, at your locker or while putting your clubs away in the car. Nice to slide into a shoe that looks good anywhere. Pair that with meeting the family for dinner, no need to change!

Therabody Theragun Relief

A little wellness goes a long way. Keeping loose is a good way to go when it comes to the weekend game or treatment during the week. If there is a little ache or pain, the Theragun is there to help out. Help loosen up the back for a pre-game warm-up or cool-down.

At GolfWRX, we are a community of like-minded individuals who all experience and express our enjoyment of the game in many ways.

It’s that sense of community that drives day-to-day interactions in the forums on topics that range from best driver to what marker you use to mark your ball. It even allows us to share another thing we all love – buying and selling equipment.

Currently, in our GolfWRX buy/sell/trade (BST) forum, @HuskerFlyer is sharing a Scotty Cameron GOLO with a BGT Stability Tour2 2022 M Edition shaft. While the putter is certainly enviable, the Augusta-inspired shaft is equally noteworthy.

From the listing:
