BRAND STORY

Why Reinvent the Golf Putter? Because Once You Discover a Better Way, You Can't Unsee It.

As your technique evolves, so should your equipment. Our interchangeable Convex putter is the only one on the market that delivers limitless versatility, allowing golfers the option to change the face, style, weight, and balance of their putter. Our putting system is designed to evolve with each golfer's individual technique and style.

Also, the convex face design eliminates face angle error; effectively increases the putter's sweet spot by spreading it over a larger surface area; equalizes energy transfer to the golf ball on off-center strikes; provides a smoother launch; minimizes the skidding phase of the ball's roll; helps the ball transition more quickly to a pure roll; reduces the effect of irregularities on the green; promotes a truer, smoother roll towards the target.

FOUNDER  |  PRESIDENT

PATRICK FAHY

In 2023, Patrick Fahy founded Convex Golf, continuing his family’s legacy of innovation in golf putter technology. Teaming up with Ben Greenberg, a brilliant aerospace engineer, they developed revolutionary interchangeable convex-face putters, introducing a groundbreaking advancement to an industry that had seen little meaningful evolution in putter design for decades.

Patrick’s passion for golf began at a young age, shaped by his early experiences working and playing at Oriskany Hills Golf Club in his hometown of Oriskany, NY. While golf remained a lifelong passion, his professional journey initially followed a different path, leading him into a distinguished career in technology and engineering.

Over the next 30+ years, Patrick applied his expertise at General Electric Aerospace, the Department of Defense, the National Weather Service, and the Department of Justice, where he honed his skills in precision engineering and problem-solving—qualities that would later drive his innovations in golf equipment.

After retiring from Federal service, Patrick’s passion for golf brought him back to the game. Inspired by his parents’ pioneering convex putter face technology, he set out to modernize and reintroduce it for today’s golfers—bridging the past with the future. His visionary spirit and commitment to excellence continue to fuel Convex Golf’s mission to revolutionize the game.

The GE Connection

While Arthur Knight, Karsten Solheim, and Bill Fahy never worked together or even knew each other, they share a common foundation—each was an engineer employed by General Electric (GE) before making groundbreaking contributions to golf equipment design.

Engineering Meets Golf Innovation

The engineering culture at GE fostered a mindset of innovation, precision, and problem-solving, principles they later applied to revolutionizing putter technology. Knight, Solheim, and Fahy combined their technical expertise with a passion for golf, reshaping putter design in ways that continue to influence the game today:

  • Arthur Knight (1900) introduced advanced materials and design techniques, influencing the evolution of modern club construction.
  • Karsten Solheim (1959) pioneered perimeter weighting, leading to the creation of PING putters, which improved forgiveness and consistency.
  • Bill Fahy (1992) developed convex putter face technology, a revolutionary concept that optimizes ball roll and enhances precision—a vision that later inspired his son, Patrick Fahy (2023), to carry on his legacy by modernizing and reintroducing convex technology for today’s golfers.

Their collective innovations continue to shape the game, providing golfers with cutting-edge equipment that enhances performance and accuracy. Their legacy stands as a testament to the power of engineering and innovation in advancing the sport of golf.
