Black Widow Grips Widow Maker putter grip wins in dominant fashion at Honda Classic
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., March 7, 2011 … BLACK WIDOW® Grips, the boldest grips in golf, continue to succeed on the pro tours in dominant fashion with a victory at the 2011 Honda Classic. This weekend’s champion played the Widow Maker putter grip model en route to his victory at PGA National in West Palm Beach. Almost perfect from within 5 feet and requiring only 21 putts in his tournament record-tying Friday round, the Widow Maker putter grip was a major factor in this weekend’s victory.
The new Widow Maker putter grip is a hybrid, dual-compound rubber grip with both smooth and textured surfaces for the best combination of feel and control. These dynamic characteristics are again proving that BLACK WIDOW Grips’ bold designs and powerful performance are a favorite among TOUR players.
“We are especially proud to contribute to the extraordinarily consistent putting performance of the 2011 Honda Classic Champion,” said Chip Chiappetta, Brand and Product Manager, PrideSports. “We look forward to the continued success of BLACK WIDOW Grips on the PGA and other professional tours.”
BLACK WIDOW Grips are designed to meet the needs of golfers at all levels, from touring professionals to recreational golfers, with nine distinct models. The expansive product line features Softspikes’ traction-inspired interlocking “S” pattern and Web-Traction TechnologyTM which are anti-slip design arrangements that maximize surface area for more traction.
