Ray West of Northridge CA had this to say about his Force Focus Belly putter:
Hi, just had to rave about the belly putter you sent. I have about 75 putters and have played with most of them. I feel like harry potter when he found the right magic wand! I love the soft feel, and the easy pendulum swing. I didn't count putts today (first round) but I do know that I one putted as many as I two putted and didn't have a three putt in the round. Thanks again! Ray West
Jim Gagnon of Orlando FL had this to say about his Force Focus Long putter:
Jake,Thank you very much. By the 4th hole I had gotten into a groove with the feel of the new putter and could not believe the results. It was amazing, I had more 1 putts on Saturday that I had the entire last 6 months. I can't believe how big of an improvement I had on just the first time out. I can't wait to get out this weekend and try it again. If you ever need a good word from anyone on your product, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks again, Jim Gagnon
Sonny Entrican of Louisville KY had this to say about his Force Focus Traditional putter:
Hello Jake, I bought your new putter about 3 months ago. I am 51, started playing golf when I was 10 years old . I have compared probably 20 putters with yours and I can tell you your new putter has the best feeling of any putter I tried. Thanks, Sonny Entrican
Aaron Relick of Latrobe PA had this to say about his Force Focus Long putter:
Hi Jake. I received the putter today. I took it out on my homecourses putting green.You are a genius. I went head to head with my Two ball belly putter. The FF beat it to death. The alignment is absolutely perfect. I made the same 20 footer with 3 straight balls. My computer is almost dead, but I did get the feedback on. I have 2 friends already very interested. I can't believe it got here already. I am also on many golf websites. When I get my new computer, I will get on the sites and tell everybody. The headcover is also really nice. This is absolutely top grade stuff. Thanks , Aaron
David Butler of Choctaw OK had this to say about his Force Focus Side Saddle putter:
I went out and tried my new putter yesterday and was impressed. I'm an occasional golfer so I can't tell you how it compares to other putters because I've been using the same putter since I started playing about 4 years ago. The putter felt good from the first putt and my confidence has greatly improved.
Jim Hoffman of Latrobe PA had this to say about his Force Focus Traditional putter:
Hi Jake, I have played three rounds of golf with your putter can't believe the difference in my putting game. It blows away my ping anser 4 putter. Just can't believe the line the putter gives you, even when I miss I'm there for the tap in. Fantastic putter, great shipping and great communication with the sale. Again thank you soo much it just a shame the golf season is almost over. Jim Hoffman
David Converse of Vacaville CA had this to say about his Force Focus Traditional putter:
Hi, Jake! Well, where do I start?!! There's just too much good to say about this engineering marvel! Something like this putter should be kept secret. I just can't believe how this putter makes the ball do exactly what I want it to do almost every time! My Cameron putter is history! Thanks again! Sincerely, David Converse Vacaville,CA.
PART 2: Jake, you can certainly use my testimonial. I'm excited about this putter. You know, I like to experiment with different putters just to see how well they perform and what I really noticed about the Force Focus is you can roll the ball from any part of the putterface(way off center) and the ball still rolls on line and with the proper speed every time. Amazing
Bob Lowe of Mifflinville PA had this to say about his Force Focus Side Saddle putter:
Jake. Putter has arrived. Anyway, it is raining! But I did try it out on my little putting green in the attic. WOW! Ten in a row in the cup. That just doesn''t happen for me, especially from 10 feet out. I can hardly wait to try it out on the greens. Thanks. If anyone asks I will be sure to send them your way. Bob UPDATE: Ok Jake, Despite wind and cold I braved the links to try out the new putter. I am impressed. I would not say my performance was remarkable but a definite improvement. Whereas in the past I typically 2 and 3 putt, today I consistently 1 and 2 putt. I even had a parr and a birdy and that was with poor conditions. I will let you know how we do if the weather gets nice again. Bob
Allen Pakos of Latrobe PA had this to say about his Force Focus Long putter:
Dear Jake, The long handle Force Focus is everything your add said it would be. Having used a long handle putter in the past I was extremely pleased with the feel from the very first time I used it. Everytime I use the Force Focus I become more and more confident. Also thank you again for working with me on my ordering problem. Running a small family business myself I understand what word of mouth can do. I promise the words everyone will hear from me . . .will be praise!!! Just sign me . . ."Proud Force Focus Owner" Sincere regards, Allen E. Pakos
Ted Browning of Highland Village TX had this to say about his Force Focus Belly putter:
Jake, I've been giving my new belly putter a good workout the last few weeks, and can't believe the consistency it's given my putting. Whether long or short, I'm making more putts now than ever before, no doubt due in great part to the natural alignment imparted by the head. Thanks for a great product - Ted Browning
Steve Moore of Arroyo Grande CA had this to say about his Force Focus 2 Ball Side Saddle putter:
Jake, My putter arrived today just as I was heading out to the golf course. Great design and craftsmanship. It gives me a much better sense for my alignment and rolls the ball beautifully. The balance of the putter creates an effortless stroke. Thanks much. Steve Moore
Gary Thompson of Arroyo Grande CA had this to say about his Force Focus 2 Ball Side Saddle putter:
Jake, I love my new side saddle Force Focus (2 Ball) putter. I am really impressed with the quality finish on the club, and it putts true. With the 2 ball design, I was able to sink a lot of those dangerous 4-8 foot putts that I had been missing. My golfing partner said it was obvious that I had a lot of confidence over the ball. No one is going to get this putter away from me!!! Thanks a bunch. Gary Thompson
Chad Mackey of Bentonville AR had this to say about his Force Focus Traditional putter:
Jake, In one word, unbelievable. Putting WAS by far the weakest part of my game. Three putts abound. I've played the Force Focus for two rounds and can honestly say, it alone has dropped my score by an average of 6 strokes. I broke 90 for the first time in my life yesterday, and it was largely due to saving pars and bogeys with big putts. I now have superior confidence on the green, just knowing when I eyeball it, its going in. Love the quality and most of all results of your custom force focus putter. Excellent service as well. Keep it up. Chad Mackey

GORDON BRATTIN AMARILLO TX.
Mike Harvey of Des Moines IA had this to say about his Force Focus 2 Ball Traditional putter:
You have designed a remarkable putter. I took it to my local courses putting green and immediately began making putts from everywhere. I played a match against my arch rival brother-in-law the next day and couldn't wait to see if my putting stroke would hold up under pressure. It was like taking candy from a baby! From 8' in it's almost a gimmee! Just use the 2 ball alignment system, trust it, and stroke it in the hole. Putts feel solid and roll true. My touch on even slick sidehill downhill putts is amazing. I love this putter! Mike Harvey
Rev Mike Best of Sweetwater TN had this to say about his Force Focus Belly putter:
I used the Force Focus putter today, for the first time. I had no three putts in 18 holes and many one putts and I am going to keep it in my bag from now on! Thanks for a great putter and getting it to me so fast. Rev Mike
Larry Villa of El Paso TX had this to say about his Force Focus 2 Ball Traditional putter:
Hello Jake, I’ve had a chance to try the putter on the greens these past two weekends. All I can say is “Wow!” I’ve always been a decent putter but the Force Focus 2 Ball putter has turned me into a really good putter! I didn’t 3-putt once! I sank a couple of 20 footers and was deadly from 10 feet in! This putter is replacing my recently bought Bettinardi “Baby Ben”. Buying this club has been the best golf investment I’ve ever made! I’m now actually winning my fair share of skins. I know I sound like a commercial, but my results were surprisingly......“Wow!” Thanks for the great club! Larry
Richard Jones of State College PA had this to say about his Force Focus Long putter:
Jake - Got the long putter....took it out with 5 mins. warm-up. Made 5 one-putts including two birds and shot 81 from our blue tees, rated 135, best round of the year. Second effort also good with 41 for 9. My course handicap is 11, mostly from bad putting. The putter gives a confident feel because of the alignment. You can give a little pop stroke on putts and the ball doesn't race by the hole which I think is unusual for a long putter. Anyway, I look forward to the rest of the season. Richard Jones

Jim George of Corning IA had this to say about his Force Focus 2 Ball Long putter:
Jake, I received the Force Focus 2 ball putter and it looked great. Better than I expected. I ordered the 48" shafted putter and am well pleased. I went out today and made 3 birdies in 12 holes. It took me a couple holes to get used to the feel but then I starting knocking them in. Great product and highly recommended. I will be listing my Odyssey on ebay today. Jim George
Wilson Kone of Brooktondale NY had this to say about his Force Focus Long putter:
I purchased your long putter earlier this year and after a summer of using it I must say I wish I had purchased long before. With the long putter I have been averaging right at two putts per green. I used to regularly three and four putt. It has removed putting as a concern about lowering my score. Now I can work solely on my short game. Once on the green, I know I have the hole made. Great club, great workmanship, great feel in my hands. I regularly recommend it to my friends. Wilson "Wil" Kone

Russell Holmes of St. Louis Park MN had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Side Saddle putter:
Best investment I have made in quite some time. I wasn't perfect for my first round of the year, but this putter is going to help me emormously this year! Thanks again, Russ
John Hansen of Mechanicville NY had this to say about his Force Focus 2 Ball Side Saddle putter:
Hey Jake: I owed you an email and with a recent graduation I just found the time to do this. Like others who have written back, my Odyssey White Hot is toast. I will give it away if anyone wants it. It took some time to get used to the 2 Ball as the White Hot had the "Hot" insert in the club face. Plus I had to make so many adjustments in stance and such to use the White Hot, I found myself trying to do the same with the 2 Ball. But I learned I didn't have to do this. You just set up and swing. I am now getting more of a feel for how the ball comes off the club face. My swing is now so much smoother due to the lie of the club. I am making more 8' to 10' putts now than I ever did with the White Hot. It has proven to be very, very consistent. I love this putter. Thanks for a job well done. John Hansen
Larry Handley of Apollo Beach FL had this to say about his Force Focus 2 Ball Traditional putter:
Jake, Your two ball putter has improved my putting in the last few weeks to where my index has dropped from 10.9 to 9.8. Thanks, and I will be ordering a two ball long in the near future. Thanks again for developing such a great putter. Larry Handley
Larry also purchase a Force Focus 2 Ball Belly 1PC Grip putter:
Jake, WOW, I didn't realize how much I had the "YIP's" until I got the new 2 Ball Belly Putter. Thanks again for a making such a quality product as you do. I hate to say it but I am glad you are secret (I won $125 the very first skins game with it) even though I promote it as much as I can. Larry
Alan Haymon of Leesville LA had this to say about his Force Focus Sight Lines Belly putter:
I'm Alan Haymon, I just received my new Force Focus Sight Lines putter 10 days ago. I went out and practiced putting 2 separate times and hour each time. Getting use to the feel of the putter. I played my first round yesterday. Kosati Pines in Kinder, Louisiana. I teed it up and shot 72 even par ! Along the way I had 4 birdies on the front 9. One from 35 feet breaking 3'. One from 25 feet and another one from 15' and one from 3'. Before making these putts I had not made a putt over 15' in 4 months. I also made a lot of par putts from 5' and 6' that I had been missing. This putter is great. Easy to line the putter up to the hole. It rolls the ball on the putting surface. The 0 degree loft is superp. The ball also has a great feel when the ball strikes the putter face. A nice click! My new Ping G5i I bought last year will now go into the closet with about 12 other putters. I really like my Force Focus 43 " single grip putter! Thanks Jake for a superp putter!
Michael Prosser of Naples FL had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Side Saddle putter:
Jake in evaluating this putter, several things come to mind. First, this is truly an execptional club, well balanced, well crafted, and easily aligned, and has the ability to roll a ball true time after time. Second, the sidewinder set up really gives me an advantage as I can fully see the line I need and the weight of the club makes ball striking a breeze. Finally, by accident, I discovered it serves as an excellent warm up club!! Since using it, I have put more putts in the center of the hole then at any other time in my life and I have been playing for over 50 years and consider myself a good putter!! Also, it is exceptionally good on long putts getting within that 3' circle from 40'-70'!! You have a great product here, good luck to you in your marketing efforts. If anyone wants to give me a call, I'm so sold on your putter, I would be happy to go into more detail. Mike P Naples, FL
Follow up: Jake, now that I have had the putter for over a month, I feel it only fair to apologize to you and all the golfers who may have read my testimonial. Unfortunately some of the statements I orginally made are just not true. Since playing with the sidewinder on a daily basis, I find that I must set the record straight in the interest of fairness honesty and retract some of those statements. Jake, you see, your putter is far better then anything I have ever used!! It is an incredible putting machine that when properly used is likely to put $$ in the pocket of the user and birdies or better on the scorecard! Keep up the good work, you really have a great product, I hope you plan to take it to the golf product show this year in Orlando!!
Donnie Whaley of Coralville IA had this to say about his Force Focus Sight Lines Side Saddle putter:
Jake , thank you for your prompt delivery of my new Force Focus Side Saddle putter. I am experimenting with it both in front and sidesaddle. It is very easy to release , when putting sidesaddle . I appreciate the craftsmanship also. Regards : Donnie from Iowa
John Ackerman of Greensboro NC had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Side Saddle putter:
What a great putter... very little practice and first round no three putt greens and had a 79. Sunk a ton of four footers...thanks so much for everything.
Three rounds with the putter so far.. I have shaved two strokes a side off of my game with this putter. What I am making now are the four footers even down hill. I am 67 years old and am playing to an eight handicap now thanks to this putter. John Ackerman
Follow up: Well I have cut five strokes off of my game and it is all putting. I finally figgured out the long ones was the only hang up initially. Made every four to six footer yesterday which I never did before. No clue why others arn't jumping on this as I play with the same guys constantly.. their loss lol Thanks once more for a great putter. John
Timothy J. Montgomery of Port Charlotte FL had this to say about his Force Focus Sight Lines Side Saddle putter:
Dear Holloways, Wanted to thank you for what your putter has done for me. I'm retired, 64 years old, and play on a Golf Digest 5 star course with an eight handicap. I'm known here as a good player but I guy who can't putt. I have putted side saddle for 20 years as the yips got me some time ago. I have used a $150 Bob Toski side saddle blade but they went out of business. I have made 6 long putters myself. I have never come close to the craftsmanship and material quality of your putters. I have had it two or three weeks now and have been able to score par golf for the first time. My number of putts has gone from over 30 to less that 30 taking 4-5 shots off my score. Strangely , I have always been good on the short game but did not make the putts I should have made. My handicap trend is now to a five, from eight. Anyone that can't putt should definitely buy your force focus side saddle putter and learn how to use it. It will put the fun back in the game.
Sincerely, Timothy J. Montgomery
Peter Langan of Panama City had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Long putter with 2PC Shaft:
Dear Jake: I purchased a Force Focus from you. It is as advertised, the craftmanship is outstanding, particularily the join in the shaft, since I included in my order the ability to take it apart for travel.Players who have looked at it always remark on the quality of the work. My background in golf includes 10 years of teaching golf, playing on a university golf team, and playing to a 4 handicap for about 20 years. Putting has never been my strength so I decided to change what I was doing as well as puchasing a new putter. Your website caught my eye for two reasons, the price, and the honesty I felt in your descriptive comments.
Since receiving the putter, I've carefully studied different styles of using the putter in an upright and sidesaddle manner. Different grips, ball placement, and method of stroking the ball, ie, shoulder, arm or a combination thereof. And I took the time to practice at home, trying out all the options until I found something that I liked. I really recommend that anyone puchasing this putter take the time to figure out how they will use it, and then take the time to practice it before putting it under the pressure of competition. One practice I recommend is to get onto a real green in a quiet time with a handful of tees, and place them in different spots, and then work on lag putts, mid length, etc. I also found some second hand carpet, bought one of those putting gizmos, and take 10-15 minuts a day getting acquainted. How has it worked: I've a set process for both upright and sidesaddle.........and the llonger putts are always grouped close to the hole. The first time I played 9 holes for real, I sank two putts over 15 feet. That was about a years supply in previous times. And my line on some longer putts is remarkable, and I know that in time, the odds are that some of those different time zone putts are going to drop. Putting is always a work in progress, but I feel very confident with this putter in hand.......and those 3 footers are no longer an anxiety attack. I'm also working on the idea of putting while looking at the hole, a la basketball and a hoop, and this is where I've appreciated the length of the putt if I've been a wee bit off the sweet spot..........it is remarkably close to the spot I'd be if I hit it pure. And the sweet spot is REALLY sweet. Finally, I have 3 putters in one..............tall, sidesaddle, and the bottom part of the putter, when unscrewed, is 34 inches, just fine as a regular putter, actually it is better than, "Just fine", it has a very nice weight to it. Jake Holloway makes a great putter, at a very reasonable price.

Roy Reed of Clearfield UT had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Long putter with 2PC Shaft:
Jake: I wanted you to know the putter arrived here a few days ago. Here are my initial thoughts: WOW!!!! WHAT A GREAT, LONG (50") BACKBONE PUTTER!!! I love everything about it; the super-high quality materials, clean lines and finely-milled face, superior craftsmanship and solid, stable, well-balanced feel! The mid-sized Winn grip is the best I've ever felt! The two-piece shaft connection is precision-built and the whole putter just gives a automatic feeling of great confidence! I am using it as a side-saddle putter; it is extremely simple to line up and the alignment lines are so easy to see! I've been practicing with it and love the solid, smooth feeling of the pendulum motion created by the heavy backbone design. Needless, all my other putters have been donated to others - I now only need one! Making putts has became almost too easy, and from anywhere on the green - yes, this putter is simply that good! Thank you for making the best putter in the industry - I've never used or tried any other putter that is built as good as yours or strokes the ball as cleanly and accurately as yours. Everyone needs one of these! Roy Reed in Clearfield, Utah
Follow up from Roy:
Jake: Thank you very much! I bought this same putter last year and just love it! I'm buying another one this year to use as a back-up. Sounds kinda silly, but I'll rest better knowing that if anything happens to my other Force Focus, I'll have a handy replacement. I just couldn't use any other putter after using one of your Backbone putters! You make the best putters on the market today! I appreciate the super-high quality craftsmanship and quality materials you use. Have a great day and thanks again. Roy Reed, Clearfield, Utah
Jake: Just wanted you to know I received the backbone putter today. Thank you so very much for your outstanding customer service, super fast shipping, and for the very professional craftsmanship that you use to build each of your great putters!!! I am very impressed with your high-quality work, and the results speak for themselves - there is simply not a better-built putter out there, anywhere. Yes, your putters are THAT GOOD! Hope all is well and I sincerely wish you a very nice Christmas. Thanks again, Roy Reed, Clearfield Utah
Don Maas of Troutdale OR had this to say about his Force Focus Sight Lines Side Saddle putter:
Hey Jake, I got the putter and wanted to let you know. As you can tell from my email address I've been putting sidesaddle for a long time. I learned to play golf when I was working at a golf course with Bob Duden. If you know any history of sidesaddle putting Bob and Sam Snead were friends. Bob made a putter called the Dude that I putted with for over 20 years. Since I had my clubs stolen I have nevr found a good replacement for it. This putter uses a different grip but the stroke is the same. The balance and feel are very good.I can't wait use it on the course. Thanks Don

Steve Westbrock of Sarasota FL had this to say about his Force Focus Sight Lines Long putter:
I don't normally write testimonials for products I purchase because much of the time they don't live up to the hype. The putter I just received from Holloway's Golf exceded my expectations. I have had the yips with short putters and even belly type for years. Can't tell you how frustrating it is to hit greens in regulation only to 3 putt for bogey. Decided to go back to long putter and found Holloway putter in my search. I hate double bend shafts and find them hard to allign. The Holloway putter all use centershafted design with straight shafts. Got it out of the box and started practicing on living room carpet. Feels great, perfect balance, easy to aim, fantastic roll on the ball. No hint of yips with this beautifull putting machine. Thanks for such a fine putter. It works equally well as long putter or sidesaddle method. Feel free to use this in your testimonials as I am thrilled with my decision.
Thanks Jake Steve Westbrock Sarasota FL
John Oznick of Asheville NC had this to say about his Force Focus Sight Lines Side Saddle putter:
Jake, I just received the putter that I ordered - Force Focus Sight Lines Side Saddle Putter. Thank you! The quality and workmanship of the putter are superb! It is really impressive. I can't get on the course this weekend but will as soon as possible.
I'm using it all over the house on carpet, putting at a 50 cent piece, and can't seem to miss. This thing is truly amazing!
As I told you, I've putted side saddle for a while now with a standard length Odyssey putter and my back was absolutely killing me. It's a good putter but it is NO comparison to this beautiful thing that you built. I'll never go back. Your putter is so much easier to use and it is so much easier to see the line that it's startling! And I have absolutely no back strain / pain at all.
This putter is deadly! Just can't seem to say enough about this wonderful putter.
Thanks again. John Oznick Asheville NC
Follow up: Update: Just got back from the course. This putter is the ONE! It's the best thing since canned beer. Ran one in from 30', two from about 20', and one from 13'. I hit almost everything inside 6'. I had one 3 putt because I lost concentration.
Thanks again for the very fine putter
Jay Menke of Toledo OH had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Traditional putter:
Jake.... Here is my truthful, straight forward testimonial / feelings on your putter you made for me.....
Is it possible for a no name man named Jake to make a mallet putter better then $500.00 brand name putters? YES!
Is it possible to have that mallet putter made so perfect that you make more long putts and short putts better then any other putter on the market? YES!
Can a man make such a balanced, pure putter with perfect alignment aids, that if you miss a putt you know it was because of yourself? YES!
Can a putter be used on the golf course so well that other players want to see it, touch it, swing it and then want to have one for themselves? YES!
And can that man make that putter that is so perfect, for 1/3rd the cost of a name brand putter?? YES!
Is it possible for that putter to help win 2nd place in a 4 day golf tournament because it is so well made, and very difficult to miss putts due to the alignment aids and balance and purity? YES!!!
And for these reasons, I will only be purchasing my future putters from Jake Holloway!!
If that isnt enough said for someone to want to purchase one of your awesome putters..I dont know what is!!!
I consider you a friend, a awesome putter manufacturer, and from this day on the only man I go to for my putter needs!! Watch for alot of business from me!! The guys loved your work!
Thanks brother.

Dennis Kayfes of White Lake MI had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Side Saddle putter:
Jake, received my putter and put it to the test. This putter exceeds my expectations. Definitely 5 star,,,,more if there are any. If I were asked what I did not like about my putter, I would have to reply “there is nothing I don’t like about my force focus series putter”. Great fit, balance ,and performance. For what I paid for my putter, I think the Big Boys should hang their head in shame. I will inform all the players in the golf league of Holloway’s Golf Products. Thank you for your prompt service.
Paul McNaughton of Marietta GA had this to say about his Force Focus Sight Lines Side Saddle putter:
Jake, Got a force focus sight lines side saddle last week. Making a huge difference. Been side saddle for several years, but this is now a game changer. Met a guy on a practice green who was using one. I putted twice with it and that was all I needed to order one that day! Weight, balance, feel, lie , alignment all good . Biggest difference is the true roll right off the face. So smooth. Just a beautiful and functional addition to the bag. Thanks
Paul Wikstrom of Willis TX had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Side Saddle putter:
Thank you Jake. I ordered your left handed Force Focus Backbone Putter a few months ago and absolutely love it. For me,side saddle is the only way to putt. It just makes sense. When I ordered it you sent me a message saying you would be out of your shop for a few days and there would be a slight delay. The next day you sent another message saying you would get the putter built before you left. That just shows you care about your customers and your product..The craftsmanship is second to none. I own four other side saddle putters and your's is by far the best I've ever putted with, plus it's way less expensive and hand crafted in the USA. I'm ordering this Sight Lines putter to see if I can putt better than I already am. If you want to add this to your testimonials feel free to do so. Thanks Paul Wikstrom
Larry McNaughton of Boulder CO had this to say about his Force Focus Sight Lines Side Saddle putter:
Thanks — Had been using my homemade version of a side saddle putter for quite awhile. But clearly the FF is far better. Getting great roll on all shots and after a month or so I am finally coming to grips with the slightly different lie angle. Long putts especially have been very good and I think that has to do with the face angle. Still getting comfortable with shorter putts — but that mostly do to over reading 6 ft and less. But building confidence that I can go a little more forcefully to the hole. Wonderful tool for my bag. Larry
Trevor Smith of Salt Lake City UT had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Side Saddle putter:
I recently purchased a left handed Force Focus side-saddle putter. I can't describe well enough how happy I am so far! First, the price was so low it was worth me taking a chance to explore this style of putting that is very new to me. As a lefty, you can't just walk into a store and find a left-handed putter most of the time, let alone a side-saddle style putter. Second, Jake was super responsive and had the putter to me within a week and a half...keeping me posted along the way. Finally, the quality and feel are amazing. Super clean, great weighting, beautiful soft feel and sound on puts. Definitely a keeper...looking forward to learning more about how to make side-saddle work for me. Thanks! Trevor
Phil Wagner of Rush NY had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Side Saddle putter:
Jake, I want to thank you for your professionalism in fulfilling my order. I'm not sure if this is the proper place for my testimonial, but here it is. I recently ordered the Force Focus Backbone Side Saddle Putter. I have ordered a lot of things online over the years, but I have never experienced the prompt, professional and thorough follow-up to a purchase of something that I experienced with Jake Holloway. It was a textbook example of how to treat a customer. Since I had never heard of this company before, I was a bit leary about making the purchase, but even before my putter arrived I was very pleasantly surprised by the follow-up communication.
The putter arrived very quickly and was exactly as ordered and promised. The putter is very well engineered and constructed. I had been struggling with the yips for several months which had taken the enjoyment out of the game. I decided to do something radical so I gave the side saddle putter a shot. Immediately I had great results. In my first round I was not only making the dreaded 3 and 4 footers, but also rolled in some 8 and 10 footers. In my second round, I had no 3 putts for the first time in a long while. I still need practice on long putts since the stroke is so different, but it's coming along. I get some strange looks and funny comments about putting side saddle, but if I can enjoy the game again then who cares - I can deal with that.
In summary, this is a great business and if you're on the fence about pulling the trigger and ordering a putter from Jake Holloway, I would advise you not to hesitate. Phil Wagner
Chet Conklin of Akron OH had this to say about his Force Focus Backbone Side Saddle putter:
Hey Jake, I received my backbone putter from you a few weeks ago and I wanted to get a few rounds in before reviewing it. I just want to say THANK YOU!! This putter is way beyond what I was hoping for. The craftsmanship is incredible and it is the most solid, best feeling putter I have ever had and I have owned many over the years: Callaway, Ping, Wilson and on and on and none of them perform anywhere near as well as this one! My only concern initially was the Zero Degree loft. No more! The roll off the face is absolutely perfect: no bumping/jumping and the ball just stays on-line. It’s got to be the zero loft. I am a true believer. My three putts are pretty much a thing of the past and, to my surprise, my lag putting has improved dramatically. Six feet and in are nearly automatic also. Thank you Jake for offering such a great putter at an even greater price point. I had a lot of questions that you graciously answered for me and the putter arrived in perfect condition and even a day earlier than expected. If anyone is wondering whether they should pull the trigger on this, don’t hesitate. You will not be sorry. Thanks again, Jake. Chet Conklin
