(RIDGEFIELD, CT) – Boccieri Golf confirms that its renowned Heavy Putter increased market share by 58-percent during March versus the previous year, as reported by Golf Datatech.
Rapidly adopted by discerning consumers and professionals worldwide, the Heavy Putter continues to experience consistently strong sell-through at off-course shops. Recent sales have been driven by introduction of the LITE-WEIGHT Series and new models in the MID- and HEAVY-WEIGHT lines.
“We have seen substantial growth each year since introducing the Heavy Putter in 2005, as our customers are extremely loyal and we’ve consistently added to that strong base,” says Stephen Boccieri, President and CEO of Boccieri Golf. “We’re excited to see that retail putter sales across the board have rebounded following a dip early in the year. This tells us golfers are out playing thanks to better weather and an improving economy.”
The LITE-WEIGHT Series was created following PGA Tour player feedback conveying a preference for a club retaining the benefits of the Heavy Putter on a lighter scale. Featuring a total weight of 600 grams – 100 grams more than standard putters from other leading brands – it is offered in five distinct options.
New MID-WEIGHT and HEAVY-WEIGHT models are available in a black PVD, with select styles showcasing a silver satin finish. All feature the company’s innovative system of added weight within the head and grip. This causes the body to engage its larger muscles for a consistent swing path, uniform pace, precise distance and directional control, as well as tightening end-over-end golf ball roll.
