Dear Media and or Marketing Representative:
First of all, appreciate your taking the time to look at our product, and we are excited to tell you about our new High Performance Golf Tee. What we have in Launcher Tee is a golf tee that does provide an edge. They have figured out how to create high performance golf balls, clubs, and now we have a high performance tee. So combining Club, Ball and now Tee - you will now be hitting your longest drives, off the tee ever! (please refer to the Golf Labs Inc. test results at www.teeguard.com)
Here are the 3 key points regarding our Launcher Tee Series:
Launcher Tee II - is designed for attaining a perfect repeatable ball height for all 360cc-460cc drivers. This promotes the 'tee it high, and let if fly' for greater distance. As all test results have shown, teeing it higher promotes longer drives.
Launcher P3 - For use on all Par 3's or Tee off on any hole with 3-7 wood or Hybrid Club.
Launcher G4 - For Par 3's, designed with a limit stop for a 'perfect repeatable ball height' to ensure hitting the irons Sweet Spot...Groove 4!
All are USGA and R & A conforming to the Rules of Golf. So they are tournament ready!
We have PGA Touring Professionals who are using our tee. Our official release for Launcher tee was on September 15, 2006. So in a short time, our high performance product is reaching the Tour Professionals.
One of the key elements is that technology has finally reached the Tee! We have the best hitting surface available, and this does indeed improve a golf shot, giving it the optimum performance. Our Aero Space Engineer came up with the shape and the composite material, to form Launcher Tee.
Below are a few media items that have been done in behalf of Launcher Tee:
Video interview form Golf Week
Online article from the Golf Channel:
Still a Show Even for the Little Guys - from www.golfchannel.com Writer: Brian Koressel
1/27/2007 ORLANDO, Fla. -- You would guess that with this being the 54th PGA Merchandise Show, there couldn't possibly be anymore new golf stuff making its way into the market. Launcher Tee...This hybrid-type tee is made from a semi-soft composite and features a 36 percent smaller 'ball seat' area than a regular wooden tee. So? So, it translates to less resistance and friction from the driver, and ideally longer drives off the tee. And maybe the biggest bonus is its durability - no more grabbing a new tee out of your bag after every hole. Or better yet, give one to that annoying partner of your's who is seemingly always asking for one on every tee box.
We are the official Tee Sponsor for the Manhattan Golf Classic. www.manhattangolfclassic.com:
Visit www.manhattangolfclassic.com - We are proud to be the Tee Sponsor for last year's event, and are honored to be the only tee sponsor/provider for this year's event. (note due to the new Fed Ex Cup playoff, the date may slide to spring of 2008, a set date will be announced in mid-April of 2007. Our tee is the tee of choice for this celebrity/corporate event. If anyone wants information on attending, sponsorship, please contact me.
Tiger Woods Foundation - We are providing Launcher Tee's for each Junior Golfer who represents the National Junior Golf Team.
Head pro at Sleepy Hollow Golf Course (North of NYC) they are purchasing 1000 tee's to give away as gifts to their members / regulars. Why? They are convinced our tee is going to make maintenance much easier. Dave Young, the head pro was golfing in Florida for the month of February, and used only one Launcher, and brought this plan back to his General Manager. They agreed, that giving them out, will then promote future sales for all of the members and new comers.
Had pleasure of giving samples to Nicholas Callaway - son of Ely Callaway - he is going to test our Launchers himself!
New Golf Franchise - which has 50-70 stores throughout the US, called Golf Etc - if I understand correctly, each store has one Golf Simulator. At a store in Georgia. They are only using our tee in the Golf Simulator - does not break, and has great results. They are preparing to stock and sell Launchers.
Our 4 pack - Blister Mold. The size of the card 6.5 x 3 and the blister mold has been decided, and the graphics has been finalized as well.
Medical Doctors - many of the doctors and dentists are avid golfers. In the last 6 months, we have had a least a dozen doctor's purchase and have their name/website placed on the Pro Launcher. This makes a nice hand out for them, as their name lasts and lasts with the imprint!
Tournaments - Foreign Languages - one nice option, is that our Launchers can accept the yearly tournament name. Also - a player can actually autograph our Launcher Tee and give it away! How nice is that, you could receive a tee - signed, and you could actually play the tee! ?
One final item - this was a great e-mail sent to me by Editor of Georgia Fairways - we had no idea he was going to write such a great e-mail on his impressions of Launcher:
Scott,
Okay... I have to admit, I was a little skeptical about using another one of these golf tee inventions! It seems that tees were the all the rage at the PGA Show. I felt like every time I turned around someone was handing me a new golf tee! So, I played a few weeks ago using the Launcher Tee. I was hitting drives further and straighter but really didn't attribute it to the tee. A few days later, I played a second round with the same results, longer, straighter tee shots. I thought to myself, could it be the tee? So, I went to the range the next day....I marked a wooden tee (from the top) the same height as the Launcher Tee to insure that the ball was teed the same. After hitting several balls with both tees, it became ever apparent that the Launcher Tee was the reason for my improved driving of the golf ball. Should I have ever doubted you?
I played a round, a couple days ago, the results continue to be the same... longer, straighter drives! Please send me a handful... I would hate to lose this one and be without a back-up! I am going to do a product review on the tee - this will be a first, as many tee companies have tried and failed - in a couple months. I want to let the weather improve before we run a story.

Tee Guard: It is not a high performance golf tee, but has very appealing marketing qualities. Especially white Tee Guards that are loaded with a blue, red, green colored tee. They look really good in packaging, containers, etc. For a golfer who insists on hitting on a wooden tee, this certainly provides a fine option. Cleaner Tee Boxes for sure! Senior Golfers and Lady Golfers in particular are attracted to Tee Guard.
Final Summary: I cannot over emphasize enough the superiority of our Launcher Tee. It is brand new to the golfing world, and we are pleased to have you show an interest in our performance tee - Launcher Tee! If you would like information regarding Tee Guard, please contact me for further details.
Sincerely,
Scott Zeida
