WAGT USA Will Endorse Knuth Golf’s High Heat Driver

(BONITA, CA) – The World Amateur Golfers Tour USA will endorse the highly touted High Heat Driver from Knuth Golf.

As part of the agreement, High Heat will be the only driver at the demo portion of the WAGT National Championship at Shawnee Inn & Golf Resort Sept. 24-26. WAGT members will be able to purchase High Heat at a special price.

Dozens of golfers will compete in that three-day tournament with the hope of winning their flight and earning a spot on the USA team that will compete against 43 other countries in the World Championship Nov. 28-Dec. 5 in Turkey.

“I tested the High Heat driver at the ING Spring Conference in June and was amazed at the distance and accuracy of the club,” said World Golfers USA President Anders Bengtson. “The folks at Knuth Golf have created a winner, and we are happy to be able to introduce High heat to our members.”

The High Heat 460cc driver was designed by Dean Knuth, who was a Senior Director at the United States Golf Association for over 16 years. He created High Heat with amateur men and women golfers in mind, because they need a driver that is designed for them rather than the Tour Driver-Mirrorpros who have different performance needs. He did so with his Optimal CG Game Changer and Fire Zone Face Technologies. High Heat was recognized as the “BEST NEW DRIVER” at the 2015 PGA Merchandise Show.

Noted sportswriter Gary Van Sickle of Sports Illustrated and Golf.Com called High Heat “the most significant technological innovation in golf equipment from this year’s PGA Merchandise Show,” adding that High Heat is “a game changer,” and “an advantage for amateur golfers.”
High Heat was named the best driver at the PGA Show by three different media outlets, and was selected by media and golf industry attendees as the No. 1 driver at the 2015 ING Spring Conference after a demo day that included major brands. Also, High Heat outperformed all the major brands in independent testing by Golf Laboratories – longer, more forgiving and straighter.

Golfers from across the country have been giving High Heat rave reviews like WAGT’s president:

* “I absolutely love it.  The sweet spot is massive.  It's almost impossible to miss hit.  Just amazing.” --Jeremy Ross, Virginia

* “Wow, the ball jumps off the face. Wow. 20 extra yards all day long.” --Tony Monagas, Washington

* “High Heat is the best driver I have ever hit. The ball goes straighter and longer and increased my enjoyment of the game.” --Admiral Bud Edney (Former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO) California

* “I love my High Heat. My Index has dropped from 12.7 to 7.5 since I got HH.” --John Parker, California

* “As a 60 year old physician I found I was losing distance off the tee despite trying all major brands and shafts. High Heat has added 20-30 yards and has also increased my accuracy. This driver is phenomenal.” --Dr. Chris Williams, New York

* “The wow comes from the distance and ball flight. I was able to hit a very high long draw. The damn ball came off the face like a bullet. I hit several drives in the 265 range and was able to out drive my buddy who loves to put it past me. What an amazing club.” --Ed Brzezowsk, Pennsylvania.

* “I am 72 years old. High Heat is spectacular: 10-30 yards longer and always straight where I aimed it!!  Handicap index dropped from 15.0 to 13.2 on 6/15, and from 13.2 to 11.8 on 7/1.  Then I shot 74, my lowest in score in many years. I fully expect my index to drop another 1.5 strokes.” --Tom, Starr.  North Carolina

* “I love my new High Heat. This is the first club that actually does as promised. My misses have been low on the face and high on the toe and both are fine now. It also improves your confidence to go after a fuller swing. Center hits are farther and off center hits are about 20 yards farther.” --Jeff Glos, Ohio

* “I am 67 years old and I am currently a 16.5 index. I think the driver is absolutely terrific.  I have added 15-20 yards and my drives are straighter. For me, the driver is a real confidence booster. I think the driver is fantastic.” --David Jatlow, Florida

Tee shots hit below the center of the face can be 20 or more yards shorter than those hit above the center of the face. High Heat has a 25% deeper and 18% lower center of gravity (CG) than any of the major brands, producing more total distance and forgiveness, and a large area below the center of the face where amateurs will not lose any distance because that area is above its much lower CG.

High Heat's lower CG is very important," said Knuth. "Amateurs regularly hit in the area above High Heat's CG which is below the major brands' average CG location. Tests have proven that drives are longer when hit above a driver's CG compared to hitting below the CG."

High Heat was tested against the major brands by Golf Laboratories, which is the world's leading independent, robotic testing facility, and used by Golf Digest, Golf Magazine, and several major brands. Golf Laboratories test results show that High Heat was longer, straighter, and had more forgiveness than the major brands. Golfers who have tried High Heat's prototypes have raved about its performance on center and off-center hits, and its look, feel and distinctive sound of power.
