“I  used your Greens Book [using measurements done with BreakMaster] this  past week at the Northern Trust Open in conjunction with the Aim Charts  from Mark Sweeney [Aimpoint] and I was number one in putting for the  tournament.”  Scott McCarron, PGA Tour Pro

"Been  using the BreakMaster to help me get the feel for the degree of slope  after my Aimpoint green reading lesson.  Worked great and highly  recommended.  Next step will be to play around with the BreakMaster  mapping out the greens on my course."  Anthony, BreakMaster customer, South Carolina

“Since I started using the BreakMaster I haven't had one complaint about hole location in years."  Reed MacGregor, USGA Official, Senior Amateur Tour

“Let  me tell you how great influence the Breakmaster has been on my own game  and also lately it's been a great addition to my caddying on the Ladies  European Tour! It's been THE greatest green reading tool ever  invented!”   Jan Brumlich, European Tour Caddy

“I  have used your product for roughly the last eight years.  I have  leveled every green we play on the PGA and Nationwide tours as well as  several courses overseas.  The product has made me nearly a million  dollars already, allowed me to gain access to the tours, and gain  credibility as a caddie.  I currently caddie for Michael Thompson on the  PGA and we are heading to Thailand next week.  I need to order another  and was wondering what you would charge a tour caddie.”  Matt Bednarski, Tour Caddie

"A  lot of the guys on the Tour are using the BreakMaster.  I use it before  tournaments and make notes in my yardage book of the readings at the  pin positions.  Most of the time it confirms what I believe to be the  break, but every now and the it makes you go ‘whoa,’ and surprises you  with the real break your eye didn’t see." Jeff Brehaut, PGA Tour Pro

"I use it all the time. It saves one or two strokes a round -- which is huge." Don Donatello caddie for PGA Tour Players Craig Barlow, Rich Barcelo

"Well,  the fact of the matter is there was absolutely no guessing or misreads  while using the BreakMaster and yes, four out of five putts broke more  than I would have thought with the naked eye. It will dramatically (with  practice, of course) make a bad putter better, a good putter a great  one, and if you're a greater putter than "Brad Faxon" your friends  better watch out." Kevin P. Alexander, Editor, Golf Today Magazine

"It takes me about three hours to map out all the greens, but I figure that it saves me at least one stroke per weekend." Notah Begay III PGA Tour Player

“We  purchased a BreakMaster a few years ago for our Section Tournaments.  I  had used one previously on The Tight Lies Tour, and I really like it.   We have actually had a few of our PGA Members purchase them as well.  I  would be interested in trying to find someway to get your name out there  to more of our members and apprentice as well as the amateur they bring  to pro-ams.”  Brian Davis, Tournament Director, Nebraska PGA

“Place  this hockey puck-sized digital level on a green to determine slope  (arrows point in the downhill direction) and break (in degrees). Tables  in the operation manual quantify break.  For instance, 2 degrees on a  3-footer equals 8 to 10 inches of break; 2 degrees on a 9-footer equals  22 to 26 inches.  Best Features: Use it to scout unfamiliar greens prior  to playing them in a tournament.”  Rob Sauerhaft, Equipment Editor, Golf Magazine

"We  used the BreakMaster at the Black Bear Golf Club just outside Orlando.  It is a Pete Dye layout and was built about 10 years ago. It is a pretty  wide open course but it has some of the trickiest greens that you will  find any where. It was a perfect test for the BreakMaster. Any well  designed green features a certain amount of trickery and optical  illusions. You can look at the hole from one side of a putt and it looks  like it breaks one way then look at it from the other side and it looks  like it breaks the other way. The BreakMaster was a good tool in  helping us see what features along the line influenced the putt. You can  save any number of strokes by paying better attention to the subtleties  of how and why putts break the way they do. The BreakMaster can go a  long way in helping you towards that end." Mike Fenton, orlandosbestgolf.com

"My new nickname: One-Putt." Lance Alworth "Bambi" NFL Hall of Fame Player (after receiving his BreakMaster)

"How  many times have you read a putt to break one way, and it broke the  opposite? Or you came up way short on an uphill putt, even though you  thought you struck the ball plenty firm? Golf course designers love to  deceive our eyes by subtle use of the terrain surrounding a green -  whether mountains, mounds, or swales. The BreakMaster can improve your  understanding of the green beyond human visual perception - with a  little research you can understand the best places to hit it on the  green, as well as the areas to avoid." Rick Adams, Senior Editor, scratch-golfer.com

"My  caddie and I went down a couple of days early so that I could play some  practice rounds and get familiar with the course. Naturally, we took  the BreakMaster with us. Since it was a 1 day qualifier, they already  had the greens marked as to where the pins would be located, so using  the BreakMaster was invaluable. We spent at least 10 or 15 minutes on  every green figuring out not only how the putts were going to break, but  having that knowledge ahead of time, we determined where the best (and  worst) approach shots would be for each green." Ron Hagan, Golfer in the US Senior Open Qualifier

"The  BreakMaster Digital Green Reader was a close second in the Pick of the  Show race [PGA Merchandise Show 2003]. This device precisely measures  the slope of a green at any given position. For more than 100 years at  championships such as the U.S. Open, the U.S. Golf Association has done  this by hand to ascertain whether a pin position is fair. The  BreakMaster does it automatically. This is a wonderful little item for  any tournament committee or, for that matter, any golf course. Just  place the BreakMaster on the turf; it does the rest by indicating the  slope." James Achenbach, Equipment Editor, Golfweek Magazine

“The  BreakMaster has become a staple of our cup-cutting routine.  It is a  tool that has proven to be a valuable asset to my daily maintenance,  allowing my staff to cut cups accurately and fairly without worrying  about an unfair pin location.” Scott Chastain, Golf Course Superintendent, The Yacht and Country Club, Stuart, FL

“I  have just begun to use the BreakMaster in my professional events on the  Hooters Tour this past week.  I may not have hit all of my putts on the  line, but I sure had a better idea of the break of the green and lay of  the land.  This is a great product.  I can see that this will save me  strokes and saving strokes means more cash in my pockets.  Just wanted  to let you know.  Thanks. Sincerely,” Britt Pavelonis, Hooters Tour

"As  any guy gets longer in the tooth, his ability to read greens subtleties  goes south...and my home course has breaks on short to mid range putts  that are almost indiscernible. I've found that I can place the  BreakMaster about halfway down the line on these putts, read the grade  and break, and make these putts with trust and authority! It takes all  the guesswork out of the putt. Even better, the following time these  putts rear their ugly heads, there's a confidence there that will last,  well---forever, I guess. This is the finest ancillary golf product I've  ever seen or used --and I was in the golf equipment business for twenty  five years all told---with Spalding and as a distributor. The  Breakmaster's readings are faithful and, at times, astonishing! Buddy Buchanan, Former Golf Rep

“Received  order yesterday as Monday was Thanksgiving Holiday in Canada.  We used  them to change holes today.  Works great.  Thanks again.”  Bob Brewster, Golf Course Superintendent. Mississaugua Golf and CC, Mississauga, Canada

"I  received the BreakMaster the middle of October and used it several  times on my course. I was amazed at some of the degrees of break that it  showed that was not seen by the naked eye. Some of the breaks were hard  to believe." Jacquelyn R. Howell Urbana University Women's Golf Coach

“Thanks  for the information [on mapping greens], I like the idea of mounting  the Breakmaster on a piece of Plexiglas.  We have been using it for hole  locations in all our recent events and like it very much.”  Skip Gist, Nebraska Golf Association, U.S. Junior Championship Committee

“Yesterday  I played in the ladies competition at my golf club and won. I putted so  well, which helped my score.  On the front nine holes I had 12 putts.   The breakmaster has really helped my game.  Last year I had 3 eye  operations, so my golf has not been very good.  I am just getting back  on track, so to discover the breakmaster has come at the perfect time.  I  play my golf at Alnmouth Golf Club, which is on the North East coast of  England, and is often very windy.  Also, last week I played my first  ladies match for 2 years and I won 5 and 3, again I think it was because  I putted so well.  Two years ago I played off 9,  at the moment I am  off 12,  but I am hopeful I will get back to 9, especially when my  putting has improved.  Many thanks, Best wishes,” Janet Prudhoe, Northumberland, UK

“We  are fortunate to have digital tools that show instantly the slope on a  green (BreakMaster).  Like the Stimpmeter, every superintendent should  have one of these inexpensive tools to help determine “conforming” hole  locations.  By using one of these instruments, a Stimpmeter, and this  graph it is quite simple to find a fair hole location.” USGA Green Section Record

“After  using the device for about thirty minutes, I got a good feel for it.  Reading putts is not an exact science because there are so many  variables (break, slope, speed of greens, weather, etc.). The  BreakMaster is a great device for training your eyes to read a putt, and  will help in getting a better understanding how a putt will roll. The  DVD [tutorial videos] and the booklet go in to length on how you can use  the device to map your own course’s greens, and gives an example of how  to use sites such as Google Earth to custom make your own yardage  booklet”  Craig Mac, thehackersparadise.com

“We  just received our new BreakMaster and we’re both appreciative and as  happy as golfers can be while watching sleet fall.  You were very kind  to replace the old one and I’ll try to keep this one safe for Nick’s  tournaments.  Given the list of pros and caddies using your product you  hardly need the endorsement of a rising 14 year old junior or his Dad  but your service is every bit as good as the product and if Nick’s  dreams come true he’ll owe you one.   Thanks again,” Bill McLaughlin
