The Never Bend Putter Grip/Ball Retriever is the one and only one-piece putter grip and ball retriever making it impossible for the suction cup to fall off. Never Bend has the patent to this grip and there are no other similar products on the market. The putter grip is now being manufactured by GOLF'S #1 PUTTER GRIP COMPANY. The putter grip fits all standard length putters and itis also available in an oversize grips.
Other ball retrievers attach to an existing putter grip. Since putters are different sizes and designs, and not circular, other products are difficult to install and often fall off.
While working in the Pro Shop at a retirement golf course, the idea came to Dennis De Gruccio. Many elderly players would come in repeatedly asking for the little gadgets that clip onto the end of a putter to retrieve a ball from the cup, but the gadgets never seemed to work correctly and frequently fell off. "What if the retriever cup was part of the grip?" he asked himself.
