Limited-Edition Model Honors 77 Years of American Craftsmanship and a Shared Legacy on the Nation’s Milestone 250th Anniversary
PINEHURST, N.C. – Golf Pride, an industry leader in golf equipment manufacturing, announces the release of its limited-edition Stars and Stripes ZERO TAPER putter grip in commemoration of the United States’ historic 250th anniversary. The release serves as a celebration of the rich heritage of American golf, a pastime the company has actively supported through domestic design and engineering for the past 77 years.
The grip features a red, white and blue colorway and includes large ‘USA’ lettering, along with a waving American flag. Beginning June 25, the specialty model will be available online at GolfPride.com for $39.99.
“As a brand rooted in Pinehurst, the home of American golf, we are proud to offer a new grip to celebrate the courses, players, and traditions that define the legacy of the American game,” says James Ledford, President of Golf Pride. “For nearly 80 years, our singular focus has been elevating performance by perfecting the one connection that matters most—the golfer’s connection to the club.”
Introduced this past February, ZERO TAPER features a parallel shape that provides a comfortable and familiar look and feel for many players. Its innovative design is purposefully engineered to optimize hand placement and encourage consistent grip pressure. This helps square the putter face at impact, leading to more confidence and better results on the greens. The Red, White and Blue ZERO TAPER represents the first limited-edition version of the product.
ZERO TAPER is the latest grip from Golf Pride that was conceptualized, designed and tested at the company’s state-of-the-art Global Innovation Center in Pinehurst, N.C. Situated next to the renowned Pinehurst No. 8, the GIC serves as the hub for global consumer research, product design and brand marketing. Inside its walls sits a consumer wing, which holds a Hall of Fame dedicated to the tradition and heritage that shaped the brand throughout its history.
