World Golf Championship, Akron, Ohio
Welcome golf fans to Feel Golf’s first PGA Tour blog report. This is Jeff Dill reporting to you weekly on the progress of our excellent wedges and Full Release grips from either the PGA Tour or the Nationwide Tour.
This week I enjoyed the atmosphere at the beautiful Firestone Country Club in Akron, OH where the top 85 players from around the world are competing in the World Golf Championship.
As you know Feel Golf wedges are some of the best wedges designed for players. My job is to present Tour players our wedges and our new Full Release grips. Well, let me tell you fans there is no wedge as popular on the PGA as our 73 degree wedge. The amount of talk regarding its performance around the greens is incredible.
Our Full Release grip is another fantastic idea that players are talking about. The Full Release grip is reversed tapered and as several top golf instructors have told me “this is the way golf grips should be built”.
As for Akron this week players Jose Manuel Lara, Liang Wen-Chong, Anton Haig, Raphael Jacquelin, Nick Watney and Yong-Eun Yang tested our wedges and Full Release Tour Grips. Players asked for some grips including Steve Stricker who wants some for the PGA Championship next week in Tulsa. I had a nice conversation with Phil Michelson who has one of our 73 degree wedges and 64 degree wedge. Zach Johnson could not believe how easy it was to hit and how it performed from the rough and short grass.
Alain Alberti a top golf coach from France requested some Full Release grips to take back to France to show his players at his Academy.
As for our wedges the comments have been tremendous in regard to their performance and design. The remaining 2007 season and 2008 look very promising for Feel Golf.
Next Week: PGA Championship- Tulsa, OK
