Hamilton, New Zealand – 22 January 2007. You have seen her drive, now watch her putt! Phillis Meti – 2006 Women’s World Long Drive Champion will be part of the excitement to launch the new line of regular length "one size fits all" Pukuâ?¢ putters at the 2007 PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, Jan 25-28.
Puku, who are well known for their "one size fits all" belly putters have extended their range to regular length putters.
"We have introduced the regular length putter in response to many requests from customers over the last year," said Simon Moore, CEO and founder of Puku.
"The new range retains our head designs, weight and center balancing, the comfortable reverse taper grip and, of course, our USGA and R&A conforming adjustable length. The new putter is adjustable from 31 to 39 inches.
"And we are particularly delighted to have a fellow New Zealander who is a winner in America to introduce our new range in Orlando."
Phillis will be demonstrating her talents at Demo Day and both Phillis and Simon will be giving demonstrations at booth #2497 with guest appearances by renowned putting specialists.

About Puku
