Driver records 473 yard at Desert Classic

Alpha C830.2 Plasma Driver records 473 yard at Desert Classic

CHATSWORTH, Calif. -- Revolutionizing the sport of golf, the Alpha C830.2 Plasma driver outperformed every other driver in accuracy and distance. The C830.2 Plasma driver swept the Diamond in the Desert Classic and the Desert Launch events this past week in Mesquite, NV.

Fred Groth, Jerimie Montgomery, and Mathew Vilade captured the top 3 spots in the 2007 Diamond in the Desert Classic. All three professional long drive winners used the Alpha C830.2 Plasma driver.

Vilade of Hideaway, Texas also made long drive history with the longest ball ever hit at the Desert Launch – a remarkable 473 yard drive.

“Nothing compares to the accuracy and durability of Alpha drivers.” Says Vilade. “Not only do I get the distance and excellent feel on impact, I have confidence knowing my driver was built to last and outperform anything I do to it.”

Conforming to all USGA club guidelines, Alpha’s C830.2 460cc driver has been touted by Golf Digest as one of “The Best Drivers You’ve Never Heard Of.” The C830.2 was also called “A Hidden Gem” by Links Magazine, awarded the “Seal of Excellence” by GolfTest USA, and recognized as the “Best of the Best” by Rankmark.com.

With 6 RE/Max World Long Drive Championship titles, and over 150 long drive championship wins world-wide, Alpha drivers have quietly gained the respect of both PGA Tour players and Long Drive professionals. For more information on the C830.2 Plasma driver or any other Alpha Golf equipment, please visit Welcome to Alpha Golf or call 800.222.1186.

Hello Sir GolfBum & 65nLovinIt,

Do you know that in our country the winner of the Longest Drive is just 296yards? A far cry from you guys up there.

Is there a reputable school in USA where it can teach Long Drives? As in you can drive the golf balls 300plus consistently?

Also, May I know who is better, GolfWorks or GolfSmith, in terms of teaching custom clubmaking?

I posted a thread like that, in the other forum, but no one answered.

Yes there is: The Kent Chase Golf Academy in Pheonix Arizona. Don't know if ya'll are familiar with the Krank Golf LD team, but they are mad scientists! They hold the current world record drive: 539 yards, using the driver I use!

The Alpha is a nice club, but I get more distance with mine. I tried the Alpha, at the LM at GS. I was hitting it 320, with roll. I was hitting 340 without roll, with my driver. To bad they didn't hit mine during the comp! KRANK RHCP all the way!!

Hello 300yards,

Many thanks for sharing this info.
May I ask how much the schooling fees at Kent Chase Golf Academy for Long Drives?

Oh yeah, how tall are you sir?
I am planning to learn how to Bomb the white ball next year when I travel to USA together with my wife.

I couldn't tell you..as I had a free lesson..If you buy there driver for $200(which is the best investment in a driver, you will ever make), they give you a free lesson. I happened to be visiting the Pheonix area..so I cashed in on the offer. Since my swing is very sound, 1 lesson was all I needed to hit my drives 40 yards further. If i had some more money, I would definently go back! The legend Lance Reader himself showed me some stuff, I will never forget. I was never skeptical..especially after I watched him bomb some 400 yarders, right down the middle...as far as going to the school..unless you are under about a 7 handicap, I would suggest you have more than 1 lesson, but by all means, go, you won't regret it!

oh yeah, I am 5'7" tall..but don't let my height fool you!
