McHenry, Illinois (September 10, 2009) – The Putting Game received rave reviews from golfers at the 2009 World Amateur Challenge in Myrtle Beach.
“Once again, we were very well received and the number of orders taken were better than expected,” said Fred Knecht, Director of Sales & Marketing.
Each night, golfers were able to practice their putting skills in a putt-off challenge at The Putting Game’s booth which offered a nightly cash prize.
“We set up 8 lanes for practice and at all times there was a line of people waiting to try out The Putting Game, said Knecht. “We estimate that the grand total of putts stroked at The Putting Game booth exceeded 15,000. Never before has a putt-off challenge been able to serve so many people at one event in the same amount of time in such a compact space.”
The World Am, which was held August 31 through September 4, is the world’s largest single-site amateur golf tournament, attracting 3,600 golfers from 45 states and more than 20 foreign countries.
The event’s pulse is its nightly party, affectionately known as the “World’s Largest 19th Hole.” The 19th Hole, which covers the entire Myrtle Beach Convention Center, is catered nightly by Myrtle Beach’s best restaurants, providing free drinks and live entertainment.
Offering numerous games and putting challenges, The Putting Game debuted at the PGA Merchandise Show in January 2009. The training aid is different than others because it uses a “virtual cup” (not a physical cup) and is “Stimp aware” to provide feedback on putt distance.
The Putting Game is loaded with six challenging games to help a golfer build confidence, sharpen directional accuracy, and improve distance control. The Putting Game is available at a limited number of pro shops or can be purchased online at www.ThePuttingGame.com for a MSRP of $329.99.
