Counter balanced technology helps players at all levels Ì¢?å¬achieve 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 the runner-up at the Valero Texas Open, whose stellar performance included ranking second in the strokes gained putting category.
Employing the new “Classic” model which weighs 100 grams and has a traditional slim appearance, the player notched his fourth top-10 since switching to the Secret Grip in late January. While adopting counter balancing, he’s achieved career-best rankings in several putting categories and leapt to 11th in the 2014 FedExCup standings.
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.
“For 10 years, we’ve regularly seen players of all skill levels benefit when they apply counter balancing, helping engage the body’s more stable muscles to promote a more consistent stroke,” says Stephen Boccieri, President and CEO of Boccieri Golf. “Installing a Secret Grip is an easy and cost-effective way for golfers to instantly improve their games without having to modify their putting stroke.”
Since its introduction in 2013, the putter version of the Secret Grip has been adopted by numerous professional players worldwide. The product is available in three sizes – Classic, Midsize and Jumbo. 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.
