While being interviewed on the Golf Channel by Matt Adams, Zero Friction Founder and President John Iacono said, “We spent a lot of time on (the Stride bag).  It has a remote control, a 36-hole battery; and it will walk within three feet of you, and in pace to keep up with your own stride.”

Weighing 35 pounds, STRIDE includes a built in intelligent gyroscopic control system for stability, speed control and soft start. The bag is able to handle all terrain including steep uphill slopes and tall grass.

TV Host Adams said, “It looks exciting and it looks a lot of fun, particularly for the people that want to try to get out on the golf course and get a little more exercise.”

Other features include an average speed of 3 mph (max. 5 mph), an autobrake system and a smart gearbox.  Plus, the STRIDE bag has plenty of room, including 14 club dividers, 2 waterproof pockets, 2 towel/accessory rings, 1 umbrella holder, and a built-in cooler which can hold up to 6 cans; as well as 2 invisible magnets to secure your rangefinder and Bluetooth speaker.

The bag is available in black or gray at a MSRP of $2199. The quick release 10-inch all terrain wheels allow easy storage. 

It was not only the STRIDE bag receiving all the attention.

The Wheel Pro Push Cart has a single strap, six full-length dividers and seven zippered pockets.  Plus, it includes an umbrella holder and bag head cover.  The new golf bag is available in three color choices: black/gray, gray/black, navy/white at a MSRP of $349.99.

Ashworth Golf Debuts Fall Line at PGA Show

Iconic Brand Invigorates Golf Apparel Market with Innovative Clothing Line Engineered with Proprietary Fabrics that Blend High-end Natural Yarns with Advanced Performance Fibers

(La Quinta, CA) – On the heels of Ashworth Golf’s return to the US market and the recent signing of Fred Couples and Tom Hoge, Newtimes Group, a global leader of retail supply chain management, debuted its innovative 2023 fall line at the PGA Show, which took place January 25-27 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida.

Revered by passionate players since the Company’s debut in 1987, Ashworth, the original, authentic golf apparel brand, is once again invigorating a golf apparel market led by an innovative line-up of clothing engineered with proprietary fabrics that blend high-end natural yarns with advanced performance fibers. Developed with a shrewd understanding of the golfer’s movements, while tapping into the product development power of Newtimes Group’s global network, Ashworth Golf’s fall clothing line delivers style, full range of motion and comfort all day.

Headlining the Fall 2023 line, Ashworth is introducing several new polos and tees featuring next generation innovation fabric including Soft-Tech, Natural Soft-Tech, Pebble Tech, and Dry Release. Each model is designed to feel super soft and incorporate strong performance attributes, with an elevated style and appearance that is synonymous with the design expertise of Ashworth President, and resident fabric alchemist, Eddie Fadel, who is pushing the boundaries and driving innovation.

“Having the Newtimes Group engine behind us is our point of differentiation, and I feel like a kid in a candy store while tinkering with a mix of fabrics, fibers and yarns to create the new look Ashworth,” said Eddie Fadel.  “As Ashworth re-emerges in the US market, we are all about making clothes that look better and feel better for golfers.”

Dry Release is designed to look and feel like complete cotton, while offering classic style with moisture wicking, UV protection, and four-way stretch for easy movement. The unique blend of poly, cotton and spandex offers the ultimate in easy care, wash and wear. Soft-Tech material is a super high-performance poly product, integrating some spandex for stretch, while featuring a unique construction – the size and quality of the yarn, and the weave to create an extra soft hand. For Soft-Tech print polos, extra care is taken to maintain softness during the printing process, controlling the temperature and using higher quality dyes.  

The Natural Soft-Tech collection is a blend of bamboo and cotton with a touch of spandex. Bamboo has very strong, natural performance attributes including wicking, UV protection, and anti-microbial qualities.  Pebble Tech is engineered for maximum breathability with the highest level of performance. By manipulating the knitting process, with special attention to yarn weight and twist, pebbled holes are produced for air-flow in the poly/spandex blend. The resulting subtle textured appearance gives the shirt a rich and elevated look while increasing breathability and comfort. 

The Fall 2023 collection features several prints designed from a distinct Ashworth perspective centered on subtle and stylish, and created with discerning club members in mind, both on and off the golf course. Polos include updated icons from the Ashworth archives including the tipped collar/sleeve original, and a strong presentation of mid-layers, including a stand-out crewneck in performance fabric that blends in some Peruvian cotton for an elevated appearance, along with a selection of quarter-zips, and a fashionable, fun hoodie created for course play. 

Ashworth ambassadors Fred Couples and Tom Hoge will be outfitted in Ashworth apparel when competing on the PGA Tour and PGA Tour Champions, as well as other professional events around the world. 

Ashworth Golf apparel is available at green grass shops nationwide and via https://us.ashworthgolf.com/. To follow the brand, check out its social media pages located at @ashworthgolf.
