ARE YOU READY-FOR ARGOLF

This putter company that started in France, and is for now in Jupiter Florida is growing. No longer is it just putters, but it’s as of 2019, Irons too.

ARGOLF President and CEO Olivier Colas shows of his new line of Irons at the PGA Show

Olivier Colas along with his brother, were avid golfers in the home country of France. But they worked in another industry.

At one point they decided that their love of golf should have them working in the golf business. After making some putters and giving them to friends, Colas said the feedback from his friends was not only good, but they , encouraged him to take his love of the game further, and start building golf clubs. A decision Colas doesn’t regret and plenty of golfers in both America and France are he followed his dreams.

President and CEO Olivier Colas, presents one of his many putter designs.

Colas says there are not enough golfers yet, in France to support what he wants to do in golf, so the logical decision was to bring his golf business to America.

Currently his fitting studio’s are in Jupiter Florida, but ARGOLF has outgrown it’s space and will be moving in 2020. Stay tuned.

Colas has had a love of planes, especially fight jets since he was a child, so he has incorporated some of the metals used in airplanes into his clubs. Which is why you will find a line of F-18 Irons under the ARGOLF brand name.

The backdrop on ARGOLF

Touring professionals have found the feel of ARGOLF putters, and have added them into their golf bags.

Lucas Glover is one of those players using an ARGOLF putter, Glover won the 2009 U.S. Open on Bethpage Black in Long Island New York.

Tim Petrovic who is playing on the PGA Champions Tour is now using an ARGOLF putter on tour.
