PITCHFIX FUSION 2.5 NAMED “BEST DIVOT REPAIR TOOL” BY GOLF DIGEST FOR THIRD CONSECUTIVE YEAR
Pitchfix, the global market leader in switchblade divot tools, announced that its Fusion 2.5 was named “Best Divot Repair Tool” for the third consecutive year by Golf Digest in its 2019 Editors’ Choice Awards.
The Fusion 2.5 makes ball mark repairs easier for golfers and continues to help reduce ball mark repair damage to greens. Pitchfix’ patented RepairTec pin technology, featuring a retractable metal “teardrop” pin system, out performs all other divot repair tools.
“The Fusion 2.5 is the best ball mark repair tool I’ve ever used,” said former PGA Tour and Champions Tour member, Chip Beck, a three-time U.S. Ryder Cup Team member. “Congratulations to Pitchfix, a truly great company, on winning this award again. Three consecutive years shows greatness.”
“It’s an honor to be named the best divot repair tool available for a third straight year by Golf Digest,” said Bart Fokke, CEO of Pitchfix. “We’ve worked hard to make the Fusion 2.5 a great tool for golfers everywhere. “
Among the features offered in the Fusion 2.5 are ABS rubberized handle for soft touch and grip, removable one inch ball marker, built in pencil sharpener specifically designed for those small diameter golf pencils and broken tees, and 14 color options. Pitchfix products, currently available at www.pitchfixusa.com, will soon be available at many top U.S. retail outlets.
The latest addition to the Pitchfix line, the Greenkeeper Pro, is a 33” tool designed to easily repair ball marks with just one injection into the green without bending down. The Greenkeeper pro, designed with the same RepairTec pin technology used in the Fusion 2.5, is constructed of a rubberized handle, carbon fiber shaft and a spring loaded steel cast head with stainless steel ‘teardrop’ pins. With one push down on the handle into the ball mark, the stainless steel prongs in the head pull up creating a level finish and a perfectly fixed ball mark.
“The Greenkeeper Pro will enable golf course maintenance staffs to clean up multiple ball marks quickly and efficiently,” said Fokke. “In addition, golfers who can’t or don’t want to bend down now have a great alternative to clean up their ball marks and move on to the next hole knowing they did their part to keep the greens in top condition.”
