Altamonte Springs, FL – A lot of exciting things have happened since Rife Putters first introduced the 2 Bar to the golf industry. The 2 Bar Series of putters, including the newly introduced 2 Bar Dana model and the more traditional GR6 Series, all with RollGroove Technology, have already been part of a winning formula on both the PGA and Champions TOUR. Dana Quigley winning the 2005 Champions Tour Player Of The Year Title with his 2 Bar putter was a real milestone.
During this year’s PGA Merchandise Show, held recently at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, Rife Putters reached another new milestone. Over the 4-day event, they sold over 3,000 putters.
Matt Molloy, COO of Rife Putters said, "We were amazed at the response we got during the Demo Day on Wednesday and the four days of the PGA Show. Our success at the show validates the acceptance of our technology into the consumer marketplace. We’re very excited about the upcoming season, both on the professional tours and in the retail marketplace. The excitement over our lineup of putters for this year including the new GR6 Series was incredible. The traffic was non-stop over the 4 days of the show. We far exceeded our expectations and have a great start to the 2006 golf season."
To compliment the extremely popular 2 Bar Series of putters, Rife introduced two new CNC milled stainless steel putters in its GR6 Series at the PGA Merchandise Show specially designed for players on both the PGA and Champions Tours.

About Rife Putters
Rife Putters, LLC is the true innovator behind horizontal grooved face putter technology with a patent on specifically sized grooves since 1997. These precisely spaced grooves allow the putter to gently press into the cover of the ball and grip and lift it into an instant forward roll. Guerin Rife states, "just as grooves in irons help control spin so do grooves in a putter face." Other companies are now trying to imitate this patented technology but the spacing of the grooves is the true key to the gripping and lifting effect of grooved face putter technology. Horizontal RollGroove faced putters create the truest "no skid" roll in golf no matter where you hit the ball on the putter face.
