DV8 Sports Launches $3.5 Million Offering for Private Investors
August 18th, 2016DV8 Sports and EPEC – Golf without obstacles, a game-changing full set of golf clubs in a liberating, life styled backpack, and an upgradeable junior golf solution that eliminates the need for costly new clubs each time a child grows a few inches.
Atlanta, GA, August 4, 2016 – Sepia Products, LLC dba DV8 Sports announced its $3.5 million Regulation D 506(c) private offering today to accredited investors throughout the USA.
DV8 has engaged VeteranCrowd to serve as exclusive financial advisor during this offering. The securities are being offered through WealthForge Securities, LLC Member FINRA/SIPC.
DV8 Sports is a golf equipment company dedicated to golf’s next generation of millennial and junior golfers. By way of innovative products and forward-thinking solutions for both adults and kids, DV8 is building brands to reflect the attitudes and aspirations of these younger players. With golf in the midst of a generational change, DV8 Sports is at the forefront of this movement; from new forms of the games we call “golf” to where they are played and the equipment players use, every aspect of this 300 year-old activity is being challenged. Many traditional manufacturers see these changes as disruptive whereas DV8 Sports has the products, the vision and the experience to turn this disruption into opportunity.
Point in fact—as reported recently, one of the world’s most respected sporting goods brands announced it is exiting golf equipment. While some assume this exit to be a reflection of the woes of the golf industry in general, a different view is the brand was simply unsuccessful at connecting with either of golf’s major demographics—older affluent golfers who prefer more traditional brands or millennials and juniors who happen to make up nearly 50% of all participants. None of golf’s major brands are focusing on these younger players which is exactly why DV8 will. To that end, funds from this raise will fuel marketing and branding, new product development and inventory purchases for both DV8 and EPEC product lines specifically focused on younger players.
One of the first uses of proceeds from this private offering will be a direct response (DR) advertising campaign on NBC/Golf Channel that will begin airing this fall. Headlined by famed PGA Tour instructor Rick Smith, a DV8 Sports ambassador, the campaign will promote the EPEC Upgradeable Junior Golf Set, the industry’s first and only upgradeable junior product. With real kids urging parents and grandparents to “DO THE MATH”, the spots will illustrate the demonstrable financial benefits of an upgradeable product as compared to parents being forced to buy entirely new sets of clubs every 12 to 18 months as kids grow. EPEC promises to save parents as much as 50-60% compared to other premium fit by height brands. Not only with the EPEC DR campaign get the company’s innovative equipment into the hands of thousands of kids, it will dramatically increase awareness of the brand and make EPEC a household name in golf.
EPEC products are distributed at a growing number of retailers such as Worldwide Golf, Golf Town (Canada) and PGA Tour Superstores, online, and through golf shops and country clubs nationwide. Go to www.epecgolf.com to see participating golf shops.
You’ve probably read that and said to yourself, “I don’t even like golf, why the heck did SSD share that?” Well, here’s why. VeteranCrowd, LLC is an online platform facilitating private placements for veteran led businesses. It’s what they specilize in. So if you’re a veteran looking to raise capital, now you know tyere’s someone you can talk to about it. Securities are offered through WealthForge Securities, LLC Member FINRA/SIPC.

H&K Announces FDE And Tactical VP Models
August 18th, 2016Columbus, Georgia – Two new models of Heckler & Koch’s VP striker fired pistol have been added to the company line-up this summer. New Flat Dark Earth (FDE) colored frame variants and threaded barrel “Tactical models” join the renowned VP family of 9 mm and .40 caliber pistols.
The new VP FDE models are manufactured using special colorants added to the frame during the molding process and are available in both 9 mm (VP9) and .40 caliber (VP40). The color frame cannot fade or chip and is unaffected by chemicals, sun, and exposure to the elements. FDE models have all of the highly regarded VP features-with the addition of their colored frames. Flat Dark Earth is a tan/brown color scheme that has gained favor among many military and security units in recent years.
The VP Tactical models (available in both 9 mm and .40 S&W) are also identical to standard HK VP pistols, except for the addition of premium grade threaded barrels -only their weights and lengths differ due to the longer and slightly heavier threaded barrel.
The threaded barrels are manufactured at HK’s Oberndorf factory in southwest Germany, using the legendary Heckler & Koch cold-hammer forging process. HK cold hammer forged barrels -made from proprietary cannon grade steel -are well known for their long service life. Similar HK barrels on P30 models have fired more than 90,000 rounds in endurance tests.
“Adding color frame models and VPs with threaded barrels is our response to the many customer requests we received on this phenomenal handgun,”said Michael Holley, HK-USA Vice President for Commercial Sales and Marketing. “Look for us to continue fleshing out the VP Series with customer-driven product improvements. The VP is one of HK’s most successful handguns. Its ‘precise pull’trigger is recognized as industry-leading. VP pistols are accurate, rugged, safe, easy to fit to any shooter’s hand -and they’re fun guns to shoot.”
Both the VP FDE color frame models and the VP Tactical models are made completely in HK’s Oberndorf factory in southwest Germany using all of the company’s advanced technologies for barrel manufacturing, as well as production of the machined steel slide, polymer frame, and all internal components. HK VP pistols are competitively priced and covered by Heckler & Koch’s lifetime warranty.
