  • Boccieri Golf Putter Scores Another European Tour Win

    Boccieri Golf Putter Scores Another European Tour Win

    From the Arizona Golf News Desk at the Arizona Golf Authority

    boccieri-golf-felipe-aguilar-photoSCOTTSDALE, Arizona – Felipe Aguilar wielded Boccieri Golf’s B3-M heavy style putter while winning the Championship at Laguna National, his second European Tour title.

    Aguilar closed with a final round 10-under par 62, including four consecutive birdies to start the back side and a “2 – 2” finish: a 10-foot birdie putt at 17 and a holed 142-yard wedge shot at 18 for eagle.

    After posting 28 on the back nine to best the field by one shot, Aguilar shared, “I said to my caddie on the 17th after making birdie ‘If we can make birdie at 18 we can put some pressure on the leader,’ and he said ‘What about making a 2?

    “I got a bit lucky, I hit one of my best shots at 17 and then again on 18.

    boccieri-golf-putter-B3-M-photographBoccieri Golf, the golf industry’s pioneer of counterbalanced equipment, offers their award-winning Heavy Putter series in several different putter head styles, weight options and custom-fit shaft lengths.

    “Over the past decade, the Heavy Putter has been adopted by numerous professionals worldwide who recognize its ability to reduce putts per round,” says Stephen Boccieri, President and CEO of Boccieri Golf.

    “Our proprietary weighting technology helps all players create a reliable, easily repeatable putting stroke that results in more consistency, especially under pressure.”

    Introduced in 2004, the Heavy Putter’s global popularity stems from use of a heavier mass head and counterweight under the grip. This causes incredible stability, a consistent swing path and precise distance and directional control.

    Boccieri noted that his putters are really quite simple, “In our Heavy Putter model series, the extra weight engages the body’s larger, more stable muscles to promote greater control and prevent wrist breakdown. The stable, reliable and consistent stroke our putters promote helps players make an awful lot of putts.”

    The full Heavy Putter line is available online at www.boccierigolf.com, 888.788.8374 and at the finest golf retailers worldwide.

    About Boccieri Golf

    Founded in 2004 by Stephen Boccieri, the company’s popular Heavy Putter collection and Control Series line of full-swing products were the first to integrate counter balance principals. This unique approach to club design is proven to benefit golfers of all abilities, as strategically placed weight in the butt-end of the shaft produces a higher balance point for smoother, more repeatable swings from driver through putter. Boccieri Golf’s Secret Grip, endorsed by Jack Nicklaus, is its latest innovation.

    The company opened a state-of-the-art Research and Performance Center at 15816 North Greenway-Hayden Loop in Scottsdale in 2012.

    Will MacKenzie Posts Fifth Top 10 Finish with Boccieri Golf Secret Grip

    Will MacKenzie is on the move up the leaderboard in 2014 with Boccieri Golf’s Secret Grip in hand. Will finished T-2 at the Valero Texas Open in San Antonio last week, one shot behind first time winner Steven Bowditch.

    secret-grip-putter-boccieri-golf-photoThat’s his fifth top 10 finish since switching to the Boccieri Golf Secret Putter Grip in January. Total earnings since the putter grip switch? $1.78 million and 11th position on the FedEx Cup points list.

    MacKenzie’s +1.910 strokes gained putting for the week is reflected in the single eagle and 16 birdies he carded over four rounds.

    Will chose the popular “Classic” model from Boccieri’s line of counter balance Secret Putter Grips. The Classic model employs a traditional profile, slim appearance and weighs 100 grams.

    The Secret Putter Grip from Boccieri Golf automatically counter balances any putter for improved stability, consistency and control on the greens.

    Stephen Boccieri, Founder and CEO of Boccieri Golf is the industry leader in counter balance golf club aka “back-weight” technology,

    “We’ve been educating players about the science of counter weighting for 10 years, and now everyone can experience the performance benefits by simply installing a new grip on their own clubs,” says Boccieri. “This popular trend on the PGA Tour actually benefits players of any skill level. They can simply install the Secret Putter Grip on their putter and improve their putting instantly, without changing their stroke.”

    Close inspection reveals the Secret Putter Grip actually raises the club’s balance point, moving it closer to the player’s body core. That makes it easy for the player to use their larger, more stable muscles. The result is a highly repeatable and more reliable putting stroke.

    boccieri-golf-secret-grip-golf-digestThe Secret Grip’s weight is achieved by molding a proprietary tungsten weight in the end of the grip, and using a rubber compound 40-percent heavier than other grip materials.

    Secret Putter Grip models are now available in three sizes – Classic, Midsize and Jumbo. The Classic ($19.99) weighs 100 grams and was designed for a player who prefers a traditional sized grip and 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 discernable counterweight feel.

    The Secret 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.

    Jack Nicklaus, who says he relied on counter balanced clubs to capture 73 PGA Tour titles and 18 major championships endorses the Boccieri Golf Secret Grip. Jack 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.

  • Boccieri Golf Introduces EL Putter Series

    Boccieri Golf Introduces EL Putter Series

    From the Arizona Golf News Desk at the Arizona Golf Authority

    SCOTTSDALE, Arizona – Boccieri Golf has launched it’s new Extended Length EL Series Putters – the first, true alternative to anchoring.

    By combining a slightly longer putter shaft with the company’s patented, Tour-proven high-mass head, and a balanced counterweight in the 17″ long grip, Boccieri’s EL Series Putters provide the reliable stability of anchoring in a free-swinging putting stroke.

    boccieri-golf-el-putter-phots

    Part of the award-winning Heavy Putter line, the EL Series delivers unmatched stability and consistency, making it equally suited to players using regular length putters and those relying on belly and long models.

    Each of the new styles showcases a shaft that extends beyond the hands, but does not attach to the body. This unique design allows golfers to use the same stroke they would with a traditional length putter while benefiting from a 175-gram counterweight that produces a dramatically raised balance point and the industry’s highest MOI.

    “One reason belly putters became so popular was because the additional grip and shaft materials created a natural back-weight,” says Stephen Boccieri, President and CEO of Boccieri Golf. “Other OEM’s are just now adopting counterweighting while we’ve been touting it for nearly a decade and have now taken it to the next level.”

    Available in 36, 38 and 40-inch lengths, the EL Series includes 28 styles in three finishes and three distinct weight categories LITE (840 grams), MID (865 grams) and HEAVY (930 grams). This stands in stark contrast to competing brands that offer only one or two models with longer shafts. In all Heavy Putter models, the extra weight engages the body’s larger, more stable muscles to promote greater control with each stroke.

  • Boccieri Golf EL Series Putter

    Boccieri Golf EL Series Putter

    From the Excellent Arizona Golf Adventures at the Arizona Golf Authority

    The EL Series putters from Boccieri Golf will knock three shots off your handicap. Now. Right Now.

    This is real simple, lads. As in “Why didn’t I think of that?” simple.

    boccieri-golf-el-putter-phots

    Years ago, we all added gap wedges to our golf bag because we agreed with what Tom Kite proved,

    “The easiest and most reliable way to play accurate wedge shots is to use one golf swing and let the tool, the loft on the wedge selected for the shot, control the distance the golf ball travels.” It’s true. We all do it now. We hone one move, pick an appropriate tool and let physics do the rest.

    The EL Series putters from Boccieri Golf apply the same fundamental truth to putting: Use one putting stroke and let the putter control the distance.

    How? Well, that’s the simple part.

    All things being equal for a given “size” putting stroke, the longer the putter shaft is, the farther the putt will travel. It’s more simple physics, pure truth, proven centuries ago.

    With the EL (Extended Length) Series putters’ 17” long grip, the “accuracy-size” putting stroke you built for holing short putts now works for medium and long putts as well.

    Just move your hands up the grip, apply the same stroke, and the longer tool guarantees the putt travels farther.

    boccieri-golf-logo-photoClick Boccieri Golf – YouTube Videos for a full demonstration by designer, Stephen Boccieri. It’s a quick study in how to hole more putts inside that “I should make this range” and why the EL Series putter is the best tool for the job.

    Holing eight and 10 footers with the very same stroke that makes all the short ones is exhilarating. Those additional holed putts appear in the GHIN Index update in short order – that’s fun, too.

    Drawbacks? There are none. The EL Series putters are available in 36, 38 and 40-inch lengths, 21 head styles and three different finishes. There’s one to fit every players’ eye.

    One highly skilled golf associate initially resisted, “My setup will be destroyed by the additional length.”

    He owns four wedges and wields each with surgical precision. We laid them on the practice green, side by side. Four wedges, four different club lengths.

    “Oh,” was the response we received as he picked up the putter and began holing six footers at will.

    Anyone who’s been anchoring their putter needs to take a look at the EL Series putters as well.

    The Tour and PGA ruling bodies are both supporting the January 2016 Anchors Aweigh ban and these putters will serve those relying on belly and long models quite nicely. Each of the new styles features a shaft that extends beyond the hands, but does not anchor to the body.

    “One reason belly putters became so popular was because the additional grip and shaft materials created a natural back-weight,” says Stephen Boccieri, President and CEO of Boccieri Golf. “Other OEM’s are just now adopting counterweighting while we’ve been refining it for nearly a decade.”

    Players who want to make more putts should report to the state-of-the-art Boccieri Golf Research and Performance Center at 15816 North Greenway-Hayden Loop in Scottsdale, just south of the TPC Scottsdale Stadium Course.

    The professional staff will put the EL Series putter in your hands to try out. Don’t worry about running out of putting green, it’s a 9,000 square-foot building, full of all the latest swing-analysis technology. You may learn more about how you move a golf club than you ever thought you could absorb.

    While you’re there, check out Boccieri Golf’s Secret Grip, endorsed by Jack Nicklaus. Introduced in 2013, the Secret Grip puts the same back-weight secret Nicklaus says he used throughout his career to win 18 professional majors and 73 PGA Tour titles at your disposal.

    Simply changing the grips on your full shot clubs will deliver a consistent tempo and shot-dispersion accuracy you probably haven’t experienced before. The 10, 12, 15 yards of additional distance per club is fun too!

    Boccieri Golf equipment has played a key role in victories on the PGA, European, Champions, Nationwide, Asian, Canadian and European Challenge Tours. They are happy to help you as well.

  • Secret Grip – Boccieri Golf – Jack Nicklaus Endorses new Secret Grip by Boccieri Golf

    Secret Grip – Boccieri Golf – Jack Nicklaus Endorses new Secret Grip by Boccieri Golf

    Jack Nicklaus - Boccieri Golf Secret Grip - Arizona Golf Authority

    (Scottsdale, AZ) – Boccieri Golf has tapped Jack Nicklaus to help launch the Secret Grip, a patented technological breakthrough that allows players to easily back-weight their clubs, similar to the way Nicklaus did during his career, winning a record 18 professional majors and 73 PGA Tour titles.

    The Secret Grip represents the first time in nearly two decades that Nicklaus has given his personal endorsement to equipment not under the Nicklaus Golf banner. Mr. Nicklaus will appear in promotional materials for the product and use it on his own clubs.

    “Throughout my career, all my golf clubs were back-weighted,” Nicklaus said. “The main benefit was that it helped slow down my hands and reduce dispersion. There are a lot of people who could benefit from the philosophy that I used and that is why we have been working with Boccieri Golf. If we can make the game easier and thus more enjoyable for people, that’s not only a good thing for them, it’s good for the game of golf.”

    The Secret Grip is designed to be installed quickly and affordably on every manufacturer’s clubs. Its heavier weight raises the club’s balance point, promoting consistent crisp contact for greater control and distance. The grip is manufactured with a tungsten weight in the butt-end and uses a grip material compound that’s 40-percent heavier than materials used in today’s other grip products.

    “Extensive research and testing has proven that counter-weighting helps everyone from the high-handicapper to all-time greats like Jack,” says Stephen Boccieri, President and CEO of Boccieri Golf. “With the Secret Grip, players benefit from our unique weighting system without changing the brand or style of golf club they prefer.”

    Prototypes of the Secret Grip were unveiled last year and garnered praise from dozens of leading media outlets. This included receiving “Top Products from the 2012 PGA Show” honors from Golf Digest and GOLF Magazine. Recent consumer launch-monitor testing of more than 500 players showed 95 percent reported a strong preference for the Secret Grip versus traditional grips.

    Additional advantages offered by the Secret Grip ($16.99 each) include:

    • An additional inch of grip length, allowing players to grip-down for improved play around the green or on uneven lies

    • The built-up lower section — often preferred by PGA Tour players — eliminates additional layers of grip tape

    The Secret Grip is the newest product in a line of pioneering equipment from Boccieri Golf that includes the popular Heavy Putter collection, along with the critically acclaimed “Control Series” of full swing clubs.

    The Secret Grip can be purchased at www.boccierigolf.com right now. Beginning in March, the Secret Grip will be available at Dicks and Golf Galaxy retailers nationwide.

    If you’re traveling to Arizona, visit the Boccieri Golf Research and Performance Center at 15816 North Greenway-Hayden Loop in Scottsdale, just down the street from the TPC Stadium golf course. In order to keep pace with demand for the entire Boccieri Golf portfolio of revolutionary products, the 9,000-square-foot facility offers a variety of services, including Secret Grip installation, custom club fitting, high-tech swing analysis and practice time in state-of-the-art golf simulators.
