UTOPIA, Texas (December 7, 2009) – Utopia Golf Products (www.utopiagolfproducts.com), maker of finely-milled performance-based putters, has completed construction of its new production facility in Utopia, Texas. The facility now serves as Utopia Golf Products’s headquarters for both company operations and club manufacturing.
“As a result of the great response we have had to our putters, we have built a new facility which will accommodate our growing needs,” says Scott Saunders, president of Utopia Golf Products.
Winner of a “Best New Product” award at the 2009 PGA Fall Expo, Utopia Golf Products is attracting the attention of golf instructors, equipment buyers, shop owners and players who appreciate the appealing putter designs with built-in performance features, in addition to the accomplished workmanship and high quality of the clubs
Each Utopia club is designed, milled, hand-assembled, painted and polished to exact standards at the company’s new facility, under the watchful eyes of putter designers Scott Saunders and Michael Hillis.
The Utopia TXR I cavity-back blade putter and TXR II heel-shafted cavity-back mallet putter feature a ridge that acts as the face, creating a thin leading line the company refers to as “The Edge.” The purpose of “The Edge” is to give “true roll” to the ball, allowing it to move smoothly along the intended line to the hole and reducing the probability of a mis-hit. Utopia putters are designed to strike the ball just above its equator to provide instant forward roll without skidding, hopping, skipping, side- or backspin.
Utopia Golf Products was founded this year by Bill Deichler, Mike Hillis and Scott Saunders, all residents of Utopia, Texas, a town of under 300 residents located about 80 miles west of San Antonio in Texas Hill Country. Inspired by their own putting woes and their love of the game, they set out to create putters that would offer the pleasure of improved performance to golfers of all skill levels. With the twin goals of striving to perfect their own play and providing opportunities to others to improve their games, the founders decided to name their company “Utopia Golf Products,” both in honor of their beloved little hometown and to reflect the unlimited potential of their creations.
The Utopia Golf Products corporate program features putters milled with a club or company logo or name. The logoed putters can be ordered in large- or small-quantity batches and can be used as corporate gifts, awards or promotional items.
Utopia Golf Products putters currently are available on the company Web site and in select pro shops, green-grass retailers, sporting goods retailers and other golf retail outlets across the U.S. They make perfect tee and tournament prizes or great gifts any time of year.
