Nickent Golf had a winning hand at the
Gila River Golf Classic in Arizona. Not only did the winner
of the event carry a 3DX Ironwood for his first Nationwide
Tour victory and a guarantee that he will play on the
PGA Tour next year, but Nickent also claimed the # 1 hybrid
ranking on the Nationwide Tour for the fourth straight
week.
Thirty-three 3DX's in seven different lofts were put into
play, beating the next closest hybrid manufacturer by
a 12-club margin. The 38-year-old winner, an Australian,
finished with a 20-under 268, giving Nickent their third
Nationwide Tour victory of the season. |
At the event marking the one-year anniversary
of taking over the # 1 hybrid position on the Nationwide
Tour, Nickent Golf celebrated in style with yet another
# 1 hybrid ranking and six out of the Top 10 finishers
using their 3DX Ironwood.
The event was the Mark Christopher Charity Classic in
Rancho Cucamonga, CA, an event that Nickent refers to
as its homecoming event due to the close proximity of
the event to the Nickent headquarters and the fact that
the 3DX began its rise to fame at the tournament.
In the year since the 3DX hybrid first defeated a giant
manufacturer for the hybrid title, the 3DX has earned
54 Top 10 finishes in only 36 events. The 3DX has also
earned the # 1 ranking in over half the events in that
time period. Nickent beat the # 2 ranking hybrid this
week by 11 golf clubs. |
The 3DX by Nickent Golf earned three top
10 finishes at the Alberta Classic on the Nationwide Tour
Sunday, including two third place finishes. The top performances
made for Nickent?s 29th Top 10 of the 2005 season, which
consists of 23 events.
Deutsche Bank
Championship
The 3DX was a part of two course records at the difficult
TPC of Boston over the long weekend. A German player,
who received a foreign exemption to enter the tournament,
tied the course record on Saturday with a 9-under 62 in
just his second PGA TOUR event.
Another player using a 3DX Ironwood set a course record
with a 28 on the back nine Sunday. He sits 84th on the
official 2005 PGA Tour money list. |

The 3DX Ironwood by Nickent Golf once
again scored the # 1 hybrid ranking this week with one
of the highest club counts of the year on the PGA Tours.
Thirty-seven 3DX hybrids in play at the Nationwide Tour's
Cleveland Open best hybrid manufacturer by 16 clubs.
The number of 3DX clubs in play was so large and the
margin of victory so lopsided that the 3DX actually
ranked as the # 2 overall wood model in the field, including
all drivers, fairway woods and hybrid models in play.
Only Taylor Made?s R7 driver had more of any wood model
in play.
The 3DX Ironwood accounts for one-third of all hybrids
in play on the Nationwide Tour in 2005. It is by far
the # 2 most played hybrid on the PGA and Nationwide
Tours in 2005 with over 700 units in play on the year,
all without Nickent endorsing a single player to use
the club. |
A player using a 3DX Ironwood finished
2nd at the Price Cutter Charity Championship Sunday, losing
by one stroke to the eventual winner after posting twenty
under par. It was the 39th Top Ten earned by a 3DX hybrid
in the 31 Nationwide Tour events since the club was introduced
to the tour one year ago at the 2004 Price Cutter event.
The 3DX player sits 8th on the Nationwide Tour money list
with $206,799 and is virtually guaranteed full exemption
to the PGA Tour in 2006. Of his 4 top tens this year;
he has one win, one second, and one third place finish.
The win came at the season opening BellSouth Panama Championship,
where the champion said his 17° 3DX Ironwood was “a
key reason for my win.”
Last year, the player finished 53rd on the 2004 Nationwide
Tour money list. With the edition of the 3DX Ironwood
to his bag, the player has had his most consistent year
since turning pro in 1990, making 13 of 16 cuts. |
The 3DX Ironwood by Nickent
Golf earned 2 Top 10 finishes on the PGA Tour this week
at the Reno-Tahoe Open and 2 Top 10 finishes on the Nationwide
Tour at the Xerox Classic.
On the two PGA Tours combined this year, the 3DX has been
in the bag for 37 Top 10 finishes (25 Nationwide Tour,
12 PGA Tour). |

A PGA Tour rookie used a PIPE
Putter and a 3DX Ironwood at the INTERNATIONAL for the
second best finish of his young PGA Tour career. The player
had a tournament best and career best 22 putts per round
in the second round, catapulting him to the top of the
leader board in the Stableford scoring event. It was one
of the best putting rounds of any player on the PGA Tour
this year. He finished the event T-8 in putts per round
with the 3-dimensional PIPE Putter.
