(August 6, 2003) - Less than eight weeks after joining the Volvik distribution network Fox Creek had ordered a total of four separate shipments.

Volvik Golf Balls, distributed exclusively by FLGolf of Summerfield, Florida, today reported on the outstanding success of Fox Creek Golf Club.

Less than eight weeks after joining the Volvik distribution network Fox Creek had ordered a total of four separate shipments.

Fox Creek Golf Club located in Lydia, SC is what most people would describe as "out of the way." Located between Florence and Sumter in a rural area of mid-state South Carolina Fox Creek is a championship 18 hole layout.

Course owner Woody Morgan was a reluctant convert to the Volvik ball, even after posting a career low score with a yellow Crystal 70 Compression ball. Morgan a ten handicap golfer posted a seventy-six on the 6903 yard par 72 Ernest Wallace Sr. design layout. Morgan said, "Most fun was that the group I played with grumbled about the yellow ball being out in front of each of their drives all day long."

Golf Shop manager Ernest "Rabbit" Faile commented, "I'm in love with the yellow Crystal ball. I've shot 65-67-69." Rabbit a scratch player said, "This is a great ball. We're selling more white Crystals than anything else but the yellow is for me. I started poorly the other day with another brand and boggied two holes. Then I pulled out my yellow ball and played in at one under."

South Carolina rep. Glen Coombe said, "Fox Creek is our kind of customer. They are a small account who reorder as required and can pay for their balls from cash flow. Woody was a "tough sell" but now is enjoying the great profit margins available with Volvik. Fox Creek is a market leader, their customers appreciate the low price and high performance of Volvik Golf Balls." "We've had some other success stories such as a record eighty dozen Crystal ball sell through in just over two months by Deer Track Resort of Myrtle Beach," said Coombe.
