HiPPO Golf Introduces Technology Driven ITX 2 Utility Clubs

(Vista, CA) - August 9, 2005 - HiPPO Golf Company USA today announced that it has added a new line of ITX 2 Utility Clubs to complement its new ITX 2 Driver, Fairway Woods, and Carbon Irons. The new ITX 2 Utility Clubs began shipping in the spring of 2005.

"Our new Utility Clubs utilize the same integrated technology as the ITX 2 driver and fairway woods," said David Dixon, CEO of HiPPO Golf


Company, Inc. "These unique clubs provide golfers with the benefits of both irons and woods. We have worked hard on the head shape of these clubs to appeal to the player who appreciates club design. The club face squares up beautifully to the ball and gives the player confidence at impact. We have had some of the best PGA teaching professionals tell us these are among the best performing utility clubs on the market, especially given the price."

The ITX 2 Utility Clubs give golfers the accuracy of an iron with the distance of a fairway wood. A carbon composite crown combined with the highest-grade maraging steel allows additional weight to be centered in the back of the club to provide a deeper and lower center of gravity to create an optimum launch angle for greater distance. The "perfect" weight in the club head provides maximum forgiveness and gives golfers of all skill levels increased power and playability.

State-of-the-art W928 High Modulus graphite shafts come standard on the ITX 2 Utility Clubs. These shafts are lightweight, have low torque, and are designed specifically for the ITX 2 heads. The new clubs also feature a HiPPO velvet red cap grip.

The ITX 2 Utility Clubs are available in 17, 20, and 23-degree lofts in right-handed models with firm and regular flex shafts.

The MSRP is $99.00 with graphite shafts.
