SeeMore Putters has had an interesting history. Payne Stewart used a SeeMore putter to win the 1999 U.S. Open. The company went quiet for some time until their re-launch in 2007 after being purchased by Jim Grundberg and Jason Pouliot in the fall of 2006.
With its SB1 Silverback mallet putter, SeeMore bucks the ultra-high MOI trend in favor of a more center-weighted design. This design enables the putter to more easily swing on a natural arc, which fits right in with SeeMore’s signature RifleScope alignment system. An optional weight kit allows the golfer to fine tune the head weight to his or her personal preference. SweetThe SeeMore SB1 Silverback putter is all about performance, as evident in its clean lines and purposeful design. The optional weight kit costs just $15, and custom lie angle, length and grip options are included at the point of purchase. The RifleScope alignment system is a perennial winner.

I almost forgot to mention I met the great Anfernee Penny Hardaway at the event, one of the all time great point guards in the NBA, a game changer, who has purchased a few SeeMore putters from us. He is a great guy, an avid golfer who works on his game daily and really loves the challenges of the game. I went back and watched some highlight films. Amazing! Also found some of the classic Nike Little Penny commercials, which were some of the most unique commercials in history. You never know who you will run into on the golf course!

Baton Rouge, LA – The No. 4 Virginia's women golf team won the second tournament championship in the program’s history in record-setting fashion Sunday. The Cavaliers took first place at the LSU Golf Classic by five shots, turning in the best tournament score in school history. During the final round, Virginia shot 4-under 284, equaling the lowest single-round score in team history, to set an all-time low tournament scoring mark of 8-under 856. UVa’s previous best tournament score was 8-over 872 at last year’s ACC Championships. “We’ve worked very hard this winter and the girls were very anxious to get the spring season underway,” said second-year coach Kim Lewellen. “We came into the tournament as the highest ranked team and I think that pushed everyone to play well. They really wanted to take home the trophy. Today, they came to the course with the attitude that they wanted to win and do so in convincing fashion. They did not hold anything back. It was a very exciting couple of days for us.” Tulane, which shot 10-under 276 during the final round, was second at 861. Its final-round score was the best 18-hole team total in the tournament’s history. No. 11 LSU was third at 867. The 18-team field included 15 schools ranked in the top-50 of the current Golfweek standings. Virginia sophomore Calle Nielson tied for first-place overall, but lost the medalist title in a three-way playoff that was claimed by Arkansas’ Lucy Nunn on the second hole of extra play. Nielson finished with a score of 7-under 209, the second lowest 54-hole total for a Cavalier. “I’m very excited for Calle,” Lewellen said. “She played great golf all weekend. To see her finish first as just a sophomore, that’s tremendous for her development and enhances her reputation as one of the top underclassmen in the country. She’s a real fighter and did a great job for us this weekend.” |
