Sizemore Collection's new XM-1 and XM-2 center shafted putters

FRANKLIN, Pa. -- The Sizemore Collection, a boutique putter company developed to support the inspirations of master craftsman and Chief Designer Bruce Sizemore, announced that the company will be introducing their new Sizemore XM-1 Putter with a center shaft at the upcoming 2007 PGA Fall Expo.

According to Sizemore, the new center shafted XM-1 and XM-2 mallets were designed to compliment the bold parallel and perpendicular facets of the interchangeable putter head which feature the first revolutionary advancement in modern putter design, AIM™, Alignment Insert Management. This patented and cutting edge technology sets a new standard in putter performance. It allows players to choose their alignment preference as well as optimize their speed and distance control with a set of interchangeable weighted end caps. It also sports a triangular shaped mallet head with pronounced copper rail sight lines designed specifically for easy customization.

“The center shafted XM-1 was used to sink a 10-foot putt and claim the BJ’s Charity Championship last month,” states Sizemore. “We work closely with the Tour when developing product. These two models are a direct manifestation of that. In fact, as a designer I typically shy away from center shafted putters but after the development of these two models, they are the #1 putters in my bag and on the LPGA,” adds Sizemore.

As with the entire Sizemore Collection the Sizemore XM-1 features pure copper inserts that are cross-milled in twenty-seven (27) different directions. It is then finished in a Sizemore signature geometric pattern with exceptionally fine spacing. This patented and state-of-the art IND-X™ process produces the flattest, most accurate face finish possible.

This astonishingly flat surface guarantees optimal reliability with a uniquely true response on all points of the putter face. Even outside of the normal “sweet spot”, the cross-milled face finish ensures a true roll and does not deflect a ball off-line as with other milled surfaces.
Both the XM-1 and XM-2 interchangeable mallet putters has met or surpassed Bruce Sizemore’s Total Club Approach or TCA. It is this premise on which he develops and designs every putter.

His TCA requirements include:
• Original designs that have a unique look and feel
• Incorporate the highest level of craftsmanship and construction
• Tolerances less than 1/1000 of an inch
• Tip-Stiff shaft technology for maximum stability
• IND-X™ face finishes guarantee the flattest putting surface
• 3-D optical design for superior alignment
• Creative concepts for revolutionary technologies like AIM™

“TCA is my personal standard to which I design and develop putters. It guarantees the best performing putters on the market with exceptional aesthetics. The XM-2 was recently deemed as ‘The Rolex of Putters’ by equip2golf.com. We believe that expression exemplifies the entire Sizemore Collection. Take a look and you’ll see the difference, just one putt and you’ll feel the difference,” adds Sizemore.

The new center shafted XM-1 and XM-2 will be showcase at the upcoming 2007 PGA Fall Expo. We invite you to visit us at the Crospete Sports booth #730. If you would prefer a personal appointment, please contact Vanessa Price at 714-544-6515 or at readthegreens@aol.com.
