Quotes From Satisfied
Users
"I use it all
the time. It saves
one or two strokes a round -- which is huge." Don Donatello caddie
for
PGA Tour Players Craig Barlow, Rich Barcelo 08.04
"Well, the
fact of the matter is
there was absolutely no guessing or misreads while using the
BreakMaster
and yes, four out of five putts broke more than I would have thought
with
the naked eye. It will dramatically (with practice, of course) make a
bad
putter better, a good putter a great one, and if you're a greater
putter
than "Brad Faxon" your friends better watch out." Kevin P.
Alexander,
Editor, Golf Today Magazine, 10.03
"It takes me
about three hours to
map out all the greens, but I figure that it saves me at least one
stroke
per weekend." Notah Begay III PGA Tour Player 09.04
"We used the
BreakMaster at the Black
Bear Golf Club just outside Orlando. It is a Pete Dye layout and was
built
about 10 years ago. It is a pretty wide open course but it has some of
the trickiest greens that you will find any where. It was a perfect
test
for the BreakMaster. Any well designed green features a certain amount
of trickery and optical illusions. You can look at the hole from one
side
of a putt and it looks like it breaks one way then look at it from the
other side and it looks like it breaks the other way. The BreakMaster
was
a good tool in helping us see what features along the line influenced
the
putt. You can save any number of strokes by paying better attention to
the subtleties of how and why putts break the way they do. The
BreakMaster
can go a long way in helping you towards that end." Mike Fenton,
orlandosbestgolf.com

"My new
nickname: One-Putt." Lance
Alworth "Bambi" NFL Hall of Fame Player (after receiving his
BreakMaster)
06.04
"How many
times have you read a putt
to break one way, and it broke the opposite? Or you came up way short
on
an uphill putt, even though you thought you struck the ball plenty
firm?
Golf course designers love to deceive our eyes by subtle use of the
terrain
surrounding a green - whether mountains, mounds, or swales. The
BreakMaster
can improve your understanding of the green beyond human visual
perception
- with a little research you can understand the best places to hit it
on
the green, as well as the areas to avoid." Rick Adams, Senior
Editor,
scratch-golfer.com 12.04
"My caddy and
I went down a couple
of days early so that I could play some practice rounds and get
familiar
with the course. Naturally, we took the BreakMaster with us. Since it
was
a 1 day qualifier, they already had the greens marked as to where the
pins
would be located, so using the BreakMaster was invaluable. We spent at
least 10 or 15 minutes on every green figuring out not only how the
putts
were going to break, but having that knowledge ahead of time, we
determined
where the best (and worst) approach shots would be for each green." Ron
Hagan, Golfer in the US Senior Open Qualifier 11.04
"The
BreakMaster Digital Green Reader
was a close second in the Pick of the Show race [PGA Merchandise Show
2003].
This device precisely measures the slope of a green at any given
position.
For more than 100 years at championships such as the U.S. Open, the
U.S.
Golf Association has done this by hand to ascertain whether a pin
position
is fair. The BreakMaster does it automatically. This is a wonderful
little
item for any tournament committee or, for that matter, any golf course.
Just place the BreakMaster on the turf; it does the rest by indicating
the slope." James Achenbach, Equipment Editor, Golfweek Magazine,
02.03
"As any guy
gets longer in the tooth,
his ability to read greens subtleties goes south...and my home course
has
breaks on short to mid range putts that are almost indiscernible. I've
found that I can place the BreakMaster about halfway down the line on
these
putts, read the grade and break, and make these putts with trust and
authority!
It takes all the guesswork out of the putt. Even better, the following
time these putts rear their ugly heads, there's a confidence there that
will last, well---forever, I guess. This is the finest ancillary golf
product
I've ever seen or used --and I was in the golf equipment business for
twenty
five years all told---with Spalding and as a distributor. The
Breakmaster's
readings are faithful and, at times, astonishing! Buddy Buchanan,
Former
Golf Rep 12.04
"I received
the BreakMaster the middle
of October and used it several times on my course. I was amazed at some
of the degrees of break that it showed that was not seen by the naked
eye.
Some of the breaks were hard to believe." Jacquelyn R. Howell
Urbana
University Women's Golf Coach 12.04
