Since 1946, when Fred Matzie first
established the company at the Westward Ho Golf Course in West Los Angeles, CA,
Matzie Golf has been creating and manufacturing innovative golf products. During
the period immediately following World War II, materials like brass were a
priority metal and difficult to obtain. Fred ordered the material from the
foundry for use as door handles, and his first putter designs were actually
mounted on the clubhouse doors. Since then, Velvet Touch Putters have gone on to
greatness, having been used to win many PGA tournaments, including all four
majors.
Through the years, putters have been a
major part of our business. The great Black Magic putter of the 50's and 60's
was the first center-shafted putter. In 1976 we began personalizing putters with
company or tournament logos incorporated into the design. In 1985, Matzie again
made history by becoming the first company to manufacture and market the long
putter, and recently we added the Navel putter.
Putters were just the beginning. In 1948
we started custom club making, with the purchase of Levings Golf Company, and to
this day we have continued to produce innovative woods and irons. In 1978 we
introduced the famous E-Z Swinger golf clubs, featuring a highly flexible shaft
to provided extra distance for seniors and women. Surprisingly, many PGA touring
pros and college coaches used the E-Z Swinger as a tempo training device, which
eventually led to a whole new Teaching and Training Division for our
company.
In 1986, Delbert Page, one of our
energetic salesman, introduced us to the Amazing ASSIST swing trainer, which was
originally designed and developed by the late teaching pro, Tony Olsen. Well, we
agreed to manufacture and market the Amazing ASSIST, and to our delight, and
golfers everywhere, it has grown to become the best selling swing trainer ever
designed. To compliment the ASSIST, we have since added the Cast-Away Power
Trainer, Training Grips, and most recently, the Perfecter.
Today we are on the threshold of a new
frontier with innovative products designed to improve your game. You can find
our products in better pro shops and golf stores
everywhere.
