COVINGTON, Ga. - Bridgestone Golf, the #1 Ball-Fitter in Golf, today introduced a new Limited Edition e12 CONTACT Patriot Pack in support of Tee It Up for the Troops. Including fifteen e12 CONTACT golf balls, each emblazoned with an American flag graphic, the Patriot Pack comes in a striking red, white, and blue box that any true patriot will appreciate. A portion of all proceeds from this unique offering benefits Tee It Up for the Troops.
Tee It Up for the Troops is a national non-profit organization that has donated over $16 million to programs that aid US veterans and help them heal and make the difficult transition to civilian life. Through their REUNION outreach program, Tee It Up for the Troops provides support in multiple key areas of need for veterans and their families including Treatment of PTSD and Traumatic Brain Injuries, Suicide Awareness and Prevention, Employment, Sports and Recreation, Family and Caregiver Support, and Housing.
“Bridgestone Golf and Tee it Up for the Troops have a long history together, having both launched in the US in 2005,” said Dan Murphy, President and CEO of Bridgestone Golf. “We have both grown significantly over the past two decades and we’re very happy to honor Tee It Up for the Troops with the new e12 CONTACT Patriot Pack initiative. Bridgestone continues to be a National Sponsor of this outstanding charity and we’re very proud to celebrate 20 great years together.”
The e12 CONTACT features a FLEXATIV cover, the fourth generation of Contact Science that works in tandem with unique CONTACT Force dimples to create 46% more surface contact at impact. Borrowed from Bridgestone Tire, Contact Science optimizes the moment of impact, yielding faster speeds on more powerful contact and higher spin rates on less powerful contact. Designed for players looking for a combination of maximum distance, straighter overall shots, exceptionally soft feel, and enhanced short game performance, the new e12 CONTACT golf balls are loaded with technology and can work for almost any type of player.
Bridgestone’s e12 CONTACT Patriot Pack is available at select retail locations today and features a price of $34.99 per 15-ball pack.
