Bruce Fleisher Continues to Soar With Hawk Eye(R) Irons / Senior Rookie Wins His Seventh Senior Event of 1999

CARLSBAD, Calif. (PROTEXT) - Callaway Golf (NYSE: ELY) Staff Professional Bruce Fleisher has written his name into another section of the record books with his seventh Senior PGA Tour win of the 1999 season. With his victory at the EMC2 Kaanapali Classic, Fleisher tied the record for wins by a rookie held by Lee Trevino and Bruce Crampton. Fleisher already had set new senior standards by winning the first two events in which he competed and by becoming the first senior to win more than $2 million in his rookie season. In each of his seven victories this year, Fleisher has used 13 Callaway Golf clubs. In his win this past weekend, Fleisher continued his phenomenal play with Callaway Golf's new Hawk Eye(R) Tungsten Injected(R) Titanium Irons, which he first put in the bag at the Kroger Senior Classic, played Sept. 24- 26. He also carried a Callaway Golf titanium driver and Big Bertha(R) Steelhead(TM) 4-wood and 5-wood, and he used an Odyssey(R) Dual Force(R) 664 Putter. Fleisher increased his lead on the money list with the $150,000 first prize, and he also leads the tour in scoring average (69.24) and top-10 finishes (17). Since switching to the new Hawk Eye Irons, Fleisher has improved upon his already sizzling scoring. In the 15 tournament rounds he has played since putting the Hawk Eye Irons in his bag, Fleisher's stroke average is an amazing 67.6 and he has hit 76.7 percent of greens in regulation, recording 12 rounds in the 60s during this stretch. "I've been trying to get some extra height on my iron shots for the last few years, but I figured age had taken that away from me," said Fleisher, 51. "But not with these new Hawk Eye irons. Now, I'm hitting the ball higher without losing distance. The bottom line is that I'm hitting wonderful shots." With only two events remaining on the Senior PGA Tour schedule, Fleisher appears on course to win Senior PGA Tour Rookie of the Year, the money title and the Byron Nelson Trophy for lowest stroke average.
