Tiger Shark unveils Optix Tour, Blade putters & Fatso grip at PGA Show
  |
WARREN, Mich. – Tiger Shark has gone big time. In 2008 you'll see their Optix Tour and Optix Blade putters being used on the PGA Tour and their new jumbo grip, Fatso.
The two new members of the Optix family have retained the outstanding alignment features of the Oversize Optix mallet, but are set in different styles. The Optix Tour resembles the Oversize Optix mallet but is 20 percent smaller while the Optix Blade putters have a more traditional heel and toe blade look.
All of the Optix putters take alignment to the highest level with their innovative three-line highlighted alignment system which is further enhanced by Line-M-Up™ ball marker tool kit. The Line-M-Up ball marking tool replicates the three lines on the putter so that when the ball is set on the green and properly aligned, the golfer can see these three lines continuing through the ball.
Tiger Shark was the first company to offer oversize putter grips and in 2008 they've gotten even bigger with the Tiger Shark Fatso Jumbo grip. Almost one third larger than the original oversized grip, the Fatso is made with Winn's V17 Ultimate Performance Material which helps absorb sweat. The grip is also designed with Winn's Advanced Vertical Seam process which gives you the premium properties of a wrapped grip, but with a virtually seamless appearance.
With the bigger than ever Fatso grip, a "wristy" putting stroke will be a thing of the past.
"We anticipate that 2008 will be a very exciting year for us," said Tiger Shark Golf President, Dean Dingman. "We know that by having a presence on the PGA Tour more golfers will want to know more about our Optix putters and with oversize grips becoming more commonplace, golfers will want to smooth out their putting stroke with our Fatso putter grip. We really feel that our product line will be in the mainstream for all golfers in 2008."
