Counter balanced technology helps players achieve Ì¢?å¬superior consistency and control on the green
(SCOTTSDALE, AZ) – Boccieri Golf announces the putter version of its Secret Grip – which automatically counter balances any putter for improved stability, consistency and control – was used by a top-four finisher at the PGA Tour’s Valspar Championship.
Earning his third top-10 performance since switching to the Secret Grip in late January, he employs the new “Tour Classic” model. It weighs 100 grams, with a traditional slim appearance and feel. He led the field with 18 birdies and placed fourth in putts per green in regulation on Innisbrook Resort’s difficult Copperhead Course in Palm Harbor, FL.
The added weight of the Secret Grip is achieved via a proprietary tungsten weight in the butt-end, combined with a rubber compound 40-percent heavier than standard. These combine to raise the club’s balance point and force players to use their larger, more stable muscles. The result is a highly repeatable and reliable stroke.
“We’ve been touting the benefits of counter weighting for 10 years, which golfers can now try easily and cost-effectively simply by installing a new grip,” says Stephen Boccieri, President and CEO of Boccieri Golf. “This popular trend on the PGA Tour benefits players of any skill level, who can improve their putting instantly without modifying their stroke.”
Since its introduction in 2013, the putter version of the Secret Grip has been adopted by numerous professional players worldwide and captured its first win on the Web.com Tour last year. Putter models are now available in three sizes – Tour Classic, Midsize and Jumbo. The Tour Classic ($19.99) weighs 100 grams and was designed for a player who prefers a traditional sized grip but wants to experience the benefits of counter balancing. The Midsize ($24.99) weighs 155 grams and features popular pistol shaping, while the Jumbo ($24.99) weighs 165 grams and is preferred by players seeking a grip with an extra thick feel and hefty counterweight.
The only grip that improves a golfer’s performance, not just the look of their clubs, Secret Grip significantly minimizes undesirable wrist movement and creates a smooth pendulum stroke. The putter grip line is currently available alongside the full-swing version at Dick’s Sporting Goods, Golf Galaxy, PGA TOUR Superstore and www.SecretGrip.com.
Secret Grip is endorsed by the legendary Jack Nicklaus, who relied on counter balanced clubs to capture 73 PGA Tour titles and 18 major championships. He currently appears in promotional material, along with famed teacher Rick Smith, who consistently ranks among the world’s top-10 instructors.
Both the putter and full-swing lines have earned outstanding reviews from scores of leading media outlets, including “Top Products from the PGA Show” honors from Golf Digest and GOLF Magazine.
