Hat-flippers or grinners - both types are showing satisfaction plus. And satisfaction plus makes them is what sells Super Maxfli golf balls. The satisfaction that a golfer gets from a Maxfli flip their comes straight from this ball's four key features: DISTANCE. No ball gives a golfer greater caps distance than the Super Maxfli.

Every Super Maxfli plays outstandingly the same! WHITENESS. No ball has a tougher or longer-lasting white finish! Chemically bonded to the ball itself, the Super Maxfli's resilient white armor stays pro-shop white hole after hole.

We know himS through his hickory golf club designs and through his Southern 4-Ball Hickory Championship. What many don’t know is that Tad is recognized around the world as a premier club designer. Born in 1941 in Toledo, Ohio, Tad was born into an avid golfing family. Parents, Thad and Hazel, members at Sylvania Country Club, and older brother, Bill, saw to it that Tad learned the game practically as soon as he could walk. No pool or other facilities. Only golf. And only the putting green was available to the fledgling golfers. Tad, as you might sus- pect, has always been a great putter. He won the Sylvania Club Championship in 1972, 1975 and 1977. He won the Toledo District Golf Association Team championship and Fourball Championship and in 1970 the TDGA Stroke Play Championship. After moving to Georgia in 1978 Tad won several Senior Georgia State Golf Association championships. He served on the Board as well as the Executive Committee and in 1988 established what today is called the Yates Scholarship pro- gram. This was modeled after the Evans Scholars program in which Tad was active before moving.
