Fuzzy Zoeller's Putting Invention Named Top Training/Putting Aid of the 2003 PGA Show Contact Dave Lobeck President & COO Fuzzy Zoeller Productions, Inc. 812-246-8200 dave@fuz.com www.puttingpeg.com ORLANDO, Fla. (February 6, 2003) - Dr. Barry Lotz, director of the Professional Golf Teachers Association of America named Zoeller's inventions "The Putting Peg TM" and "The Putting Pod TM" as the best teaching/training aids of the 2003 PGA Show. "I have been using both the Peg and the Pod religiously since the beginning of the 2002 season, and I know they have improved my putting drastically," said Zoeller. "I am starting to see other PGA TOUR and Champions TOUR professionals using them, so I suppose the secret is now out," he continued. "Sometimes we get so wrapped up in how far we can hit it, we forget that scoring is accomplished by getting the ball into the hole." Zoeller won The 2002 Senior PGA Championship at Firestone Country Club and tallied an amazing ten one-putt greens on the final day on his way to victory. Another notable example is PGA TOUR professional Robert Gamez, who went from 145th to 12th in putting in just one season while using Zoeller's putting aids. Zoeller's aids combine the benefits of putting to a small target (1 1/2 inches in diameter as compared to a regulation golf hole at 4 1/2 inches) with the positive psychological benefit a player experiences when hearing the ball fall in the hole. This is accomplished by a patent pending mini speaker and battery system that emits the sound of a ball falling in the hole when the unit is struck by a golf ball. The entire story of how the aids were created can be viewed at www.puttingpeg.com. "Fuzzy has never put his name on a training aid in 27 years of professional golf," said Dave Lobeck, President & COO of Fuzzy Zoeller Productions. "He believes in this product because he helped invent it, he finds it fun to use, and he knows it has helped his game. He also knows it will help golfers of all skill levels for a price point that is less than a dozen golf balls," Lobeck continued. "We see that as real value in today's golf marketplace." "The Putting Peg TM" and "The Putting Pod TM" are available in retail outlets such as Kmart, Dick's Sporting Goods, Golfsmith, Discovery Stores, Edwin Watts, Roger Dunn, Big 5, Academy, as well as pro shops all over the country.
