Frankly Frogs Leap into Golfing Mainstream


Frank Thomas-designed putters growing in popularity...now available in pink and black.


ChampionsGate, FL – Golf courses around the world are finding an increasing number of frogs on their courses…Frankly Frogs! The putters, designed by Frank Thomas, are now available from Edwin Watts and are sold in pink and black styles in additional to traditional “frog green.”

“We’re delighted that Frankly Frogs have found broad acceptance among golfers in a short period of time,” said Valerie Melvin, Managing Director of Frankly Golf. “The secret to our growth has been finding opportunities to get The Frog into the hands of golfers. Once golfers have an opportunity to putt with The Frog, they immediately sense the ‘sweet feel’ that comes from the perfect balance and incredible forgiveness of the design -- and more importantly, they make more putts.”

“The Frog will be introduced in the new colors of pink and black at this year’s PGA Merchandise Show,” said Melvin. "The response has been overwhelmingly positive. Both putters contain the same technology that made the green Frog successful.”

In addition to being available online at www.franklygolf.com, the putters are now widely available through Edwin Watts’s online store, catalog and retail stores. Also, the Frankly Frog recently received the highest rating of any product submitted to date from testers in the PGA Tour Partners Testing Program.

Frankly Frog putters stabilize the putting stroke, provide maximum forgiveness, and give positive roll to the ball immediately after impact. The putters have a machined aluminum putter head with two heavy tungsten weights positioned low and behind the face to give it perfect balance and an extremely high “Moment of Inertia”. The putter head also promotes improved alignment with bold white sight lines on the “frog’s” head.

Frank Thomas, who was Technical Director of the USGA for 26 years, designed the Frankly Frog. After his retirement from the USGA, Frank continued his career goal of helping golfers by forming a company with this precise mission. He founded Frankly Golf and launched a line of putters that incorporate his deep understanding of equipment technology in their unique design.
