Heavy PutterT hires Steve Zunich as sales head

SOUTH SALEM, NY. – Nov. 30, 2004 – Heavy PutterT (www.heavyputter.com) has named Steve Zunich as its Director of Sales, the company has announced.
Zunich served as AccuFLEX Golf's Director of Sales and Marketing from 2001until
October of this year and has been given much of the credit for AccuFLEX's meteoric rise from obscurity to its current place as a major factor among golf shaft companies.

"We are thrilled to have someone with Steve's knowledge, skill and reputation join us as we develop our sales distribution network," Heavy PutterT president Stephen Boccieri stated. "Steve's energy and experience have already helped us with some key decisions as relates to Heavy Putter's direction from both a sales and marketing standpoint. Several people within the golf industry have told us that Steve is a great fit for our company and will be an important asset as we go forward. I couldn't agree more."

"I am very happy to be joining the Heavy Putter team," Zunich began. "I have known Stephen Boccieri for almost five years now and I can honestly say that I don't know of anyone more knowledgeable about the science of golf equipment performance than Steve. I believe that the science behind the Heavy Putter could do for putter technology what Prince did for tennis racquet technology twenty years ago. The Heavy Putter is the best feeling putter I have ever used and I hear that same comment almost every time I let someone try mine. The fact that we have gained such fast acceptance on Tour lets me know that the quality of our products will stand up. I am looking forward to helping the Heavy Putter team introduce our amazing products on a large scale and I'm very confident that Heavy Putter provides the most technologically advanced putters ever made."

The Heavy PutterT will officially debut in booth number 4035 at the 2005 PGA Expo in Orlando, Florida.

Heavy PutterT combines heavy mass putter heads, a Weight Management System (WMS) TM, and Interchangeable Tip Weights to create a balance point that is 75% higher than conventional putters. The high balance point allows the golfer to manage the heavy head producing a consistent release and greater stability throughout the stroke. The Heavy PutterT further improves the putting stroke by engaging the golfer's large muscles and disengaging the wrist and hands. In its first few weeks of very limited exposure to the various PGA Tours, Heavy PutterT earned three "top tens" on the PGA Nationwide Tour and numerous requests from many Champions Tour legends. The Heavy PutterT has been featured on The Golf Channel's "Champions Tour Learning Center" program with host Tom Nettles.
