The new divot tool designed by Starting Time, called Fix-Master® follows the principal of the professional divot repair tools used by the golf course maintenance crews. This is on a smaller scale, so that it can be conveniently carried by the golfer in his or her golf bag. This divot tool is mounted on the grip end of the putter and has four sharp prongs that are pushed or jabbed into the damaged ball mark area. This action, lifts up the underlying soil and eliminates the hazard of tearing the grass roots that will kill the grass After the prongs have been pushed into the area surrounding the ball mark, as well as in the center , it is then tamped down with the head of the putter to smooth the surface. The small holes of the prongs remain in the grass as aerators to help speed up the repair of the damaged surface. If the ball mark is not too severe, it will completely disappear and the green is left as it was before the impact of the ball. The small aeration holes do not affect the roll of the golf ball by the golfer putting directly over the area after the repair. |
