This past Friday the Southern Illinois Men's Golf Team visited the putter studio.  For an hour and a half the team was instructed on the benefits of the SeeMore system as well as being able to try all of the new product for 2010 - even looking at some prototypes. We would like to thank Jordan Cox, Coach Newton and the rest of the team for taking time out of the spring break to visit the studios.

SeeMore Training with Team from Golf Galaxy - Cool Springs

SeeMore hosted 8 team members from Golf Galaxy - Cool Springs store for a 90 minute training session. Jim Grundberg (owner/managing partner), Greg Montgomery (national sales manager) and Ted Gallina did a brand overview and putting clinic for everyone.  The training session was well received by all who attended giving them a better understanding of SeeMore and the putting system.  We even had a comment from one of the team members that this would be great if all of the stores could go through this training.  We told them to have them contact us and we will go wherever they want us.  We appreciate everyone for attending the training.

Pat O'Brien - A Simple Drill

 by Pat O'Brien

This drill is one of Zach's favorites.  Place a shaft 18 inches behind the hole and start with 3 balls 5 feet away from the hole.  The goal is obviously to make the putt; however your secondary objective is to get the ball to the hole but not touch the shaft.  When you achieve this with all three balls, move out to 10 feet. 

If you come up short on any of the three, or hit the shaft, you have to go back to the previous distance.  After you are successful at 10 feet, move out to 15.  You can go in any increments you want.  When Dr. Mo and I want to really challenge Zach, we go 10, 20 and 30 feet.  Mo has found that this really sharpens Zach's focus and makes his practice productive.  He really dials in his speed while tapping into his competitive nature.  Try it!

SeeMore Introduces mSeries DB4 with RST2 Technology

The SeeMore Putter Company follows up on the growing success of its flagship putter line by launching the new mSeries DB4, which features RST2 technology. The DB4 is the most exciting new product launch from SeeMore in many years, as it offers a very simple, effective, and innovative twist on a classic design.  RST2 alignment technology expands the proprietary alignment benefits of SeeMore’s patented RifleScope Technology (RST) to a classic blade design with offset hosel for the first time.  

“The new DB4, like all of the SeeMore putters before it, is one that solves one of the most fundamental problems in putting, that of consistently accurate alignment at address. It offers the confidence to make a fundamentally solid and repeatable putting stroke each and every time, said Jim Grundberg, SeeMore’s Managing Partner. “The RST2 patented alignment feature is extremely exciting in that it has been developed with the input of the world’s best tour players over the past 2 years and simply makes a great putter design better by improving a player’s ability to set up square to the intended target line.”

The RST2 alignment system is housed on the top of the hosel vs. the original RST system that is found on the top heel section of the putter.  The 2 white lines on top of the hosel are milled perfectly parallel to the face of the putter, creating a perfect "gun sight" effect where the golfer is assured of being square to the intended target line when the white lines are visible and the signature red dot is hidden. The RST2 system also assures that the loft of the putter head will be optimal for perfect roll on every putt.  The golfer also can be confident that by lining up the 2 white lines, and making sure the red is not visible, that his eyes and shoulders and hips will all be square to the intended target line.  This means that the golfer will enjoy a much greater probability of making a consistently perfect stroke with each and every putt, leading to more made putts and lower scores due to improved putting.  The RST2 brings most of the key benefits of SeeMore's patented and proven RST (RifleScope) technology to the large golfing population that loves the classic looks of this type of putter.

The DB4 is 100% milled in the USA, and is available in a beautiful platinum finish for $325.(Photo top) It is available immediately.

The DB4 is also available in 100% milled carbon steel with a proprietary multi-layer black satin finish for striking and lasting beauty, the first of a new series called mSeries CS Gunmetal Black, for $295.

SeeMore Statistics

In 2009, five players using SeeMore putters on a regular basis on the PGA Tour finished in the top 80 positions on the money list.  All told 10 players in the final 125 on the money list used SeeMore's patented and proven RifleScope alignment technology at key times during the season, including 3 victories and eleven top 10 finishes.  SeeMore also had 2 of the top 20 on the final 2009 LPGA Tour Money List use its putters prominently, including a victory at the J Golf Phoenix LPGA International.

SeeMore originally became recognized when Payne Stewart won the 1999 U.S. Open playing a SeeMore putter. Stewart one-putted the last three holes to win the championship by one stroke.  He sunk what's considered to be the longest putt in Open history on the 18th hole to win the tournament.  Stewart also won the putting title for fewest putts per round over the entire 1999 season.  The brand was re-launched in 2007, and immediately regained worldwide prominence as Zach Johnson used a SeeMore FGP to win the 2007 Masters.  Johnson also se the all-time putting record on the Nationwide Tour for the entire season in 2003 (1.699 putts/GIR).

The major story in 2009 on tour for SeeMore was the continued excellence of Johnson finishing 4th on the PGA Tour Money List with earnings of $4.7 million, a new career high.  He established himself as one of the greatest players in the world with 3 victories over a 12-month stretch, including the 2008 and 2009 Valero Texas Open and the 2009 Sony Hawaiian Open, to add to his 2007 MAsters victory and 6 overall tour titles.  He also recorded the lowest round of the year on the PGA Tour in 2009, a 60 in the 3d round at the Texas Open, which makes him the only player in the history of the PGA Tour to have 2 career rounds of 60 or better, his first 60 coming in the 3d round of the 2007 Tour Championship at East Lake.  Johnson's pair of 60's is the last 2 rounds or better on the entire PGA Tour.
