Interview with Gregory Moreau, founder of ValGrine

ValGrine: a unique experience on the art and technique of putting

Grégory Moreau - © ValGrine

Grégory Moreau, who are you?

I am a master craftsman passionate about beautiful mechanics and practicing amateur golf.

What is the genesis of ValGrine?

I approached putting with my training and my scientific and technical experience, serving the most demanding business sectors in the world. This Cartesian reading of the context gave me a totally uninhibited approach and a different vision of the state of the art.

My surprise was to note that there was an inconsistent standardization of products, given the number and the difference between golfers: experience, type of swing, skill, temperament, muscle mass, morphology, sex, age, etc ...

I like to remind each golfer that I meet the importance of his putter, he represents in average alone, ~ 50% of his part. So, if you want to make things happen, progress, score with regularity and perform, it is fashionable, to invest in priority in what is most important in golf, putting.

My idea is to improve performance by adapting the tool to the user, like a shooter will adapt his rifle to the target. If we make a parallel with motorsport, it is not possible to make a good time, even if the driver is good, if the car is not optimal and suitable for the driver.

What answers do you provide?

I have developed and patented technologies allowing the putter to be adapted to its owner with incomparable efficiency: the 1er putter with control of trajectories and distances was born!

Today there are 4 types of golfers at different levels depending on the length of their experience, their expertise, their skills: beginner, confirmed, expert, professional. There are also 2 teaching methods and putting techniques, either arched or online.

Unlike the current standardized offer, ValGrine has decided to optimize the tool / user pair. To go further, a protocol and technologies have been developed:

  • An insert with an IAPP - Perimeter Plan Support - which increases the tolerance to “Sweet spot” impact dispersion
  • Line of sight and alignment "4 4 2" to improve directional and postural control
  • The "MD19" weights in different quantity and position boost efficiency and precision

The golfer will then be surprised to increase his comfort zone, to succeed in his putts with more regularity and pleasure. These sensations create a virtuous circle, a factor in improving performance.

How do you decline the ValGrine offer?

Based on the analysis of player types, ValGrine is currently expanding its offer through the Sport range and the Prestige range. The first is for golfers looking for tolerance, stability, consistency and the second for those looking for control, power and feel. Both create on a common base of elegance, finesse and refinement.

For all those who are in search of progress, improvement and tailor-made, I offer a technico-sensory experience by private appointment: "the ValGrine Experience".

Can you tell us more?

In order to progress and score sustainably, I have developed a simple and rigorous method to achieve surprising results: a success rate close to 90% at 1 meter!

It is based on 10 phases: discovery of the environment, analysis of the situation, decision-making, alignment, simulation, conviction, positioning, action, awakening of the senses and recording.

The purpose of this protocol is to establish the basics: the user is in harmony with his ValGrine putter. Its regular practice allows, in the long term, to lead the golfer to unconsciously develop his intrinsic and personal faculties in coherence with his senses. This second state is necessary to obtain exceptional results.

I invite you, during an Experience, to discover ValGrine, its values, its history, its technologies, its protocols and its unique know-how labeled "Living Heritage Company".
