COLUMBUS, GA, October 13, 2011 — Roy Nix, Executive Director of the Association of Golf Clubfitting Professionals (AGCP), the world leader in the advancement of custom clubfitting and clubmaking is pleased to announce today the recent addition of Feel Golf as an AGCP sponsor. As part of the sponsor agreement, Feel Golf will be offering its SG line to AGCP members as components for complete customization by AGCP members.
Join The Revolution with Feel Golf’s [SG] Line. Feel Golf Co., Inc. is known for its PGA inspired golf equipment including its superior line of award winning wedges. Until now the Company has been a full-line premium golf club manufacturer with club assembly in the USA. All Feel Golf Company products were designed, built and backed by PGA Professionals. For over 20 years, Feel Golf’s proprietary technology golf clubs have been played by Tour players worldwide – including the PGA, LPGA, European, Asian, Champions and Nationwide Tours, as well as by All-American Collegiate Players. By partnering with the AGCP Feel Golf products will now be available for custom fitting by the AGCP members.
Feel Golf is also the innovator of “The Reverse Taper – Full Release™” Performance grip. This leading, technologically advanced grip with patents in grip design & utility can increase distance, improve accuracy, and provide golfers of all skill levels with a better touch and feel – the trademark of the Company.
The Full Release Grip is thinner in the top hand and thicker in the bottom hand – similar to the grip of a baseball bat. The unique design allows any golfer to more easily hold the club in the fingers, rather than the palm. A lighter, Tour-like grip allows the golfer to release the wrist more fully through impact, maximizing club head speed and generating more power and distance. The more natural grip also helps cure the dreaded hook or slice that plagues so many of today’s golfing amateurs.
More than 4 out of 5 golfers of all skill levels report that this revolutionary golf grip provides them with an immediate increase in distance and accuracy over their traditional golf grips. The grip has been independently tested by PGA Tour Partners, and conforms to the rules of the USGA and The R&A for use in competitive golf.
Bill Glasson, a seven-time PGA Tour winner, says, “The Feel Release Grip is what my golf game has been waiting for. The ability to drive my right hand gives me more control through the impact zone. I have struggled with golfer’s elbow for many years, and he larger right hand grip has virtually eliminated my elbow pain … This grip is a must for everyone who takes their golf game seriously.”
The Full Release Performance Grip is only one of many items featured on Feel Golf’s recently launched Components Website. There you can find all of Feel Golf’s familiar award-winning products, as well as a new line of wedges and irons with square grooves [SG] for the upcoming 2012 season.
Lee Miller, Feel Golf’s CEO stated, “Our new [SG] line has original square grooves and are non conforming in accordance with the new 2010 groove rule.”
Feel Golf has raised questions against the changes to the groove rules — specifically for amateurs — and believes that these new rules have a negative effect on the enjoyment of the game. In a survey of recreational players with handicaps from 9 to 28, most overwhelmingly stated, “We are not Tour players, and this game is hard enough without making it more difficult for us!” “Small rule changes really are designed for the top Tour players in the world and can have a significant and negative impact for every other golfer,” says Miller. “We believe anything that makes the game more difficult and less rewarding for amateurs will decrease overall consumer interest and hurt the golf industry.”
Feel Golf will offer both conforming and non conforming wedges and irons beginning in Jan 2012 to meet our customer’s wishes. The new Square Groove line is designed to do just that.
