About the Divot Disc™

Michael DeSimone

Michael DeSimone is a certified golf instructor who first conceptualized the Divot Disc™ while working on his own game during the winter months in Colorado. Forced to practice indoors during the colder days, Michael looked for ways to create a reusable surface to obtain the feedback he was looking for – the divot path of the swing and where that divot is first created through the hitting zone.

Understanding the value of a reusable feedback surface, DeSimone presented the idea to his close friend Ron Angstead, President and CEO of Rapid Pro Mfg. in Longmont, Colorado. Ron and his staff of engineers worked with DeSimone to design, prototype, test, and finally create what is now the Divot Disc™.
