Sweet Spot Golf H-3 Hybrid

Model: Sweet Spot Golf H-3 Hybrid (Womens)
Web: www.sweetspotgolfclubs.com
Price: $139 each

Sweet Spot Golf Logo

Description: Sweet Spot Golf offers women’s golf equipment and their current Pink Line features drivers, hybrids and putters. The Sweet Spot Golf H-3 hybrid features a triangular club shape that promotes a center of gravity back (CGB) resulting in a high moment of inertia (MOI) and more stable club face upon impact.

The Tear-drop head design, inspired by bicycle racing helmets, promotes less drag aerodynamically resulting in faster club head speed. The H-3 hybrid features the Precision Positioning System for target alignment. This unique alignment system is unique to Sweet Spot and is incorporated into all of their clubs providing a consistent look across driver, hybrid and putter. The H-3 Hybrid comes in three models: H-3 (19 degrees), H-4 (22 degrees) and H-5 (25 degrees). The hybrid features a Custom Pink Shaft by Matrix or a Black Platinum Pro-Tour shaft by Alpha Golf. With any purchase of a product from the company’s Pink Line, Sweet Spot Golf will make a donation to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. The line has been endorsed by the Women’s National Golf Schools.

STX Envision TR Putter

Model: STX Envision TR
Web: www.stxputters.com
Price: $199 each; available in 34 and 35 inch lengths

STX Logo

Description: STX, world-renowned as an industry pioneer in putter innovation, and for its patented Soft Face Insert Technology, introduces the first putter in the Bob Engman Signature Series, the Envision TR. The new mallet design putter boasts square angles and bold lines to ensure a proper address.

The square shaped head distributes weight further out towards the heel and toe for a higher moment of inertia. The geometric shapes chosen by Engman make it easy for golfers to see when the putter is not properly aligned throughout the stroke.

“The Envision TR is the perfect line extension for the Bob Engman Signature Series. It combines world class design with superior functionality. The elegant lines are stunning but more importantly they serve as excellent alignment aids.” said Steve Henneman, Director of Golf for STX. Chief Club Designer Bob Engman continues to fuse form and function with the release of the new signature series putters by STX.

For a variety of responses, the Envision TR will be available in the black, red and green insert options. STX offers better putting through chemistry. The black insert is the softest in the STX line. It delivers the highest friction and resilience rate plus increased dwell time. Those characteristics are chemically formulated to get the ball rolling sooner and keep your putts on line. For a medium resiliency rate, the red insert offers an intermediate amount of dwell time for true control. And, for golfers who prefer a firmer feel, the green insert provides a harder feel with less resilience.

A sophisticated gunmetal finish compliments the bullet back style that epitomizes the STX style. The Envision TR is machined from a 304 stainless steel to ensure precise angles and a perfectly flat striking surface. A proprietary double bend shaft on the Envision TR moves the hands forward for proper alignment.
