NAPLES, Fla. – Octagon, Inc. today announced a partnership with Powerchute Sports, the makers of the Powerchute golf training aid that increases golf clubhead speed.  Through this partnership, Octagon will provide digital and social media consulting services to Powerchute and assist with sales and marketing efforts, throughout the United States and internationally.

“We are excited to support Powerchute Sports as they introduce their leading-edge product – the Powerchute – worldwide,” said Chris Higgs, Managing Director of Octagon’s Golf and Outdoor events division. “This product will train golfers of all skill levels, and we look forward to its future success.”

Powerchute is a patented golf swing training aid engineered to increase clubhead speed and driving distance through resistance training. Originally conceived for World Long Drive competitors, the Powerchute promotes and teaches ‘proper sequencing’ – the transitional sequence of movements from the backswing to the forward swing.  Through proper sequencing, the clubhead is delivered more efficiently, improving clubhead speed and driving distance.

“There are numerous swing trainers on the market, but the Powerchute is the most effective swing trainer I have ever seen for increasing clubhead speed,” said Jim Sowerwine, creator of the award winning Inside Approach ‘Slice Correction Trainer,’ who redesigned and reengineered the Powerchute. “The Powerchute will help any golfer increase their clubhead speed.”

Powerchute sales and marketing activation by Octagon will include a grassroots endorsement program with golf professionals across the globe, partnerships with The First Tee chapters and other charitable organizations.
