BIOMECH PARTNERS WITH THE AMERICAN PARKINSON DISEASE ASSOCIATION TO RE-ENGAGE PARKINSONIAN GOLFERS

Jan.14, 2016






Warwick, RI (Jan. 14, 2016) – 

BioMech Golf Equipment—a professional company that designs and builds sports equipment based on the body’s physiology and physics—has partnered with the American Parkinson Disease Association (APDA) to reengage golfers and enhance the joy of the game to players impacted by Parkinson’s.
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive neurological condition that is characterized by motor problems including slowness of movement, rigidity, and tremor.  BioMech Golf’s first product, the AccuLock ACE putter, has already demonstrated benefits to golfers with Parkinson’s.  By virtue of its contact against the golfer’s leading forearm, the ACE facilitates a simpler, natural core putting motion. An upright, balanced stance helps to control and stabilize the stroke, thus eliminating unwanted and uncontrollable motion in the small muscles of the hands, wrists, and arms. As a result, the ACE gives Parkinsonians and all golfers improved putting control.
Inspired by the benefits of the AccuLock ACE putter for people with PD, BioMech has partnered with APDA and will donate $5 from the sale of every ACE putter in 2016. BioMech CEO Dr. Frank Fornari had this to say about the partnership, “Being part of APDA’s efforts to support Parkinson’s patients and their families was unquestionably the right choice for BioMech.” Fornari emphasized that “for me the game of golf is both a health issue and a biological process that changes as your body changes. At BioMech, we are working to help golfers adapt to changes from aging, injury, disease, behavior, schedule, etc. and continue to play and enjoy the game—and life.” ACE putters are available at www.biomechsports.comand in select stores nationwide

    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. AccuLock putter’s anatomically optimal design permits the grip to rest against the leading forearm’s inner surface, stabilizing the hands, arms, and shoulders.

    Shaft placement in the back of the putter head allows full view of the alignment aids.
    Hand position varies based on personal preference. Optimal placement is to have the rear hand lower than the forward hand.
    Less arc is generated the closer you stand to the ball, which promotes a straight back and forth motion. The result is minimal deviation.
    Relax arms to allow big muscles to move the putter up and down the target line.
    Note: Setup and stroke may vary depending on player preference.
    The patented AccuLock Core Putting System triangulates the movement among hands, arms, body to promote a core-driven stroke rather than one controlled with the hands and arms.
