That’s an interesting putter, Bo Van Pelt
Bo Van Pelt is using an interesting flatstick at this week’s Waste Management Phoenix Open — a BioMech AccuLock Ace.
Here’s some more information from the company’s website about the putter, which goes on sale at the beginning of April.
[quote_box_center]”The AccuLock putter’s anatomically optimal design permits the grip to rest against the leading forearm’s inner surface, stabilizing the hands, arms, and shoulders. Using the core muscles and a stance that facilitates the simultaneous viewing of the target line and golf ball, this method reduces and/or eliminates hand, arm, and shoulder movements, resulting in more accurate putts.”[/quote_box_center]
- Maximal forearm contact stabilizes hands, wrists, arms and shoulders.
- Shaft placement permits unobstructed view of the golf ball and putter face.
- Shaft angles allow the putter to perform as an orthotic facilitating consistent set up.
- Anatomically correct forward angle results in maximal forearm contact.
- Upright lie angle minimizes the arc inherent in pendulum putting.
- Lie angle positions the ball closer to the toe facilitating a near straight putting stroke.
- Optimal face angle at impact results in proper ball launch and roll.

A contorted putter requiring a contorted body posture and putting action… 😮

This was the best new product I found at the PGA show. They fitted me for one and the results were instant and easy to see. Looks different but works very well.

Seems like another variation of the Odyssey Backstryke putter – – better looks though – – hope it helps Bo

Id say that Bo may be having some putting trouble… normally when a player goes to such drastic grotesque lengths theres a problem.

The concept makes sense. Looks nice and I’m sure it works well.

I was more interested in the head design than some belly putter replacement shaft

Although I prefer a more “normal” looking large mallet; this thing probably works well. With the upcoming ban on anchoring (and Kuchers success) I am shocked more putter companies are not offering the arm lock style. I’d like to try it.
