GreenBerry by Daito Golf - Provides Instant, Accurate Putting Data

Rick Stedman Comments (0) 6/01/07
4.0 - Eddie Stimpson, the 1935 Massachusetts Amateur champion, developed a method for accurately measuring green speed; the device was called a Stimpmeter. If Stimpson were alive today, he would turn in his Stimpmeter for a GreenBerry.

Daito Golf's GreenBerry is an amazing electronic putting assistant and Stimpmeter all in one. The GreenBerry puts your stroke force in sync with the putting surface, so you can control the power behind your putts and master the green regardless of distance, turf, or playing conditions.

Made for indoor or outdoor use, the GreenBerry is simple to set up, easy to use, and offers accurate readings of both stroke force and putting distance. It helps promote muscle memory in the putting stroke. Lightweight and slim, the pocket-size GreenBerry will boost your competitive advantage by giving you the confidence to make better decisions right on the green. What are some of those advantages?

The GreenBerry:
-Helps develop a better putting rhythm and tempo
-Reduces or eliminates yanking stroke
-Helps to consistently strike ball in the center of the putter face
-Improves ability to develop proper stroke force and distance control

"This is a wonderful product," says Joseph Malec, a PGA Tour partner club member. "After calibrating it to the green speed, the GreenBerry helps the player develop a more constant putting stroke by providing true stimp, speed, and distance data. It also provides drills and games that vary the distance, thus guiding the player to better adjustments under true playing conditions."

Using the GreenBerry is simple. Place it on the putting surface, then position the ball so that once it meets the club face, it will travel three to four inches before passing in front of the GreenBerry's sensor. If you putt left-handed, don't worry. The GreenBerry allows for a change in stroke direction.

"The golfer can take the GreenBerry to the course, set the machine down on the putting green, and then take a few putts to calibrate the green speed and distance," explains Dr. Gerald A. Walford, a member of the PGA and a sports psychologist. "When playing the greens on a course, you will encounter uphill, downhill, fast, and slow greens. The GreenBerry improves distance control as it gives the force necessary to get the ball to the hole. I really like this product and personally feel it can be of value with dedicated practice."

The GreenBerry is suitable for beginning golfers and aspiring pros alike.
