Rudy Duran, Tiger Woods' First Golf Coach,
To Endorse Accu-Length System
Duran, who coached Woods from ages 4-10, has been named the spokesman and official endorser for Accu-Length, the first and only patented golf clubs designed to grow with your child. As one of the premier junior golf coaches in the country, Duran wouldn't put his personal stamp of approval on just any product.
"The Accu-Length expandable clubs are a great idea," says Duran, who is based in Paso Robles, California. "It is an extremely unique and much needed product because it is just as important for clubs to fit juniors as it is for adults. Accu-Length, is a common sense approach that addresses the old problem of cutting down clubs."
Several years ago Duran was quoted during an interview as saying "I believe that golf should be fun for children and the most important thing when they are first beginning the game is to encourage them." Accu-Length provides perfect fit and properly fitted equipment gives kids a better chance to succeed. Success is always fun in sports."
"We are proud to have Rudy Duran involved as an integral part of our company," says Rick Rutter, President, COO and Co-Founder of On-Track Sports, LLC., the parent company of Accu-Length. "His early involvement with Tiger Woods shows how he can nurture a great talent to their ultimate success. We expect he will be able to do the same thing for Accu-Length."
Duran's involvement with junior golf goes far beyond coaching Woods. He is presently the Secretary for the Board of Directors of the First Tee Central Coast. Duran has been organizing and conducting junior golf programs since 1971, the year he turned Pro and has received awards from the PGA Tour the Southern California PGA and California Golf Writers for his contributions to golf and junior golf. His junior programs in the Central Coast of California presently have 850 kids enrolled. He will be using the Accu-Length System at those programs in order to give his students the best possible fitting equipment so the kids can develop good swings and have fun playing the game of a lifetime.
"Rudy Duran and Accu-Length are a perfect match," says Rutter. "Rudy is a great advocate of junior golf and Accu-Length is a great advocate of top-quality, easily custom fit junior golf equipment."
