Tiger Shark UltraTac Grip Helps Player to Top 5 Finish at John Deere Classic

Tiger Shark Golf scored another Top 5 finish on the PGA Tour at the John Deere Classic with their UltraTac Jumbo putter grip. The former Major winner put the oversized grip on his putter over two months ago and has improved his putting stats significantly since switching to the grip designed to take the wrists out of the putting stroke. The player finished the event with a 28.5 putts per round average and ranked 5th among all players in Putts Per GIR. He now ranks 15th on the PGA Tour in total Putts Per Round average for the season and currently ranks 4th on the tour in overall scoring average at 69.69.

The 4th place finish was the second Top 5 finish for the player since switching to the Tiger Shark UltraTac grip. The former Indiana Hoosier earned $211,200 and jumped from 74th to 57th in the FedEx Cup point standings. The player has been a fan of Tiger Shark since 2009, when he put a Great White putter with an UltraTac grip in play, the same combination that led the field in putting at the 2010 Masters.

The UltraTac Jumbo grip, a winner on tour last year at the Byron Nelson Championship, is the original jumbo grip design that forever changed the way golfers started looking at how oversized grips could help their putting. To date Tiger Shark has sold more than 1.5 million putter grips since they launched this trend setting design. Jumbo putter grip technology enhances a pendulum stroke and they are also proven to reduce grip pressure and keep the putter head square. Other benefits include natural balance and set up, less putter head rotation, accurate smooth putting stroke, improved ball roll and greater distance control.
