(RIDGEFIELD, CT) – Boccieri Golf will showcase its new Heavy Putter Deep Face (“DF”) Series at next week’s 2008 PGA Merchandise Show (Booth # 1365) in Orlando, Florida, and for testing during Demo Day at the nearby Orange County NationalGolf Center.
The Heavy Putter DF Series features five models – three mallets, two blades – ranging in design from traditional to groundbreaking, each with raised centers of gravity on the clubface for superior distance control and improved skid-roll characteristics.
Extensive research indicates a higher center-of-gravity (cg) on the head benefits most golfers because it aligns the vertical cg of the clubhead more closely with the cg of the golf ball, resulting in a more consistent transfer of energy at impact. This caused Boccieri Golf to create the Heavy Putter DF Series. The higher center of gravity allows golfers to raise their putters just above the surface of the green more consistently to achieve contact with the sweet spot for a truer roll and greater distance control.
The weighting technology that made the Heavy Putter popular has not changed for the DF Series.
Like the entire Heavy Putter line, the DF models weigh just under two times that of conventional putters, thus, automatically engaging larger, more stable muscles. Furthermore, the higher balance point created by the counter-weight in the butt end of the shaft disengages the hands, promoting a smoother, more consistent pendulum stroke. Like all Heavy Putter models the new DF Series incorporates face balancing for improved feel and performance.
“The Heavy Putter Deep Face Series takes technology to an even more advanced state,” says Stephen Boccieri, President and CEO of Boccieri Golf. “Golfers are experiencing tremendous results with the DF putters, thanks to their biomechanical responses to the greater weight and higher center of gravity for better transfer of energy.”
For the first time, Boccieri Golf presents two models exclusively for women. In addition to the men’s G3-DF and C2-DF, the women’s versions have a pink grip, touches of pink on the clubhead, and come with a distinctly feminine headcover and a Lady HP shaft band.
Further validating the performance of the Heavy Putter DF Series, PGA TOUR winner Troy Matteson put both the C2-DF and the F3-DF into play. With the new DF putters in hand, Troy joined the elite group of 60 in the semi-final FedEx Cup round after recording two other top-10 finishes in 2007. Several other TOUR players are improving their scores with Heavy Putter DF models.
Most Heavy Putter DF models come in standard, mid and long lengths. All standard length models are $169 MSRP.
The Heavy Putter "Original" and "Matte" Series models – which spawned the global army of Heavy Putter true believers – are still available. They retail for $229 and $199, respectively, including an adjustable tip-weight kit to fine tune the balance point of the putter and match golfers’ unique release characteristics. There are three blades and three mallets within each series.
