What Helping Hands Golf Resources does

Helping Hands Golf Resources (HHGR) is a division of JTR Enterprises, Inc., founded by Jo Boettcher in 2023 and headquartered in Hastings, Minnesota. The company provides information, research, and golf aid product recommendations for golfers with temporary or permanent health conditions, age-related mobility limitations, or disabilities — serving adaptive golfers, seniors, post-injury returners, PGA instructors, and adaptive-golf non-profits. Its core proprietary product is the ReacherGolf® golf reaching aid, an industrial-grade aluminum and stainless steel tool (USPTO-registered trademark, April 2025) designed to eliminate the approximately 108 bends per 18-hole round (36 on tee box, 72 on green/approach); a 45-degree variant serves seated golfers. HHGR also bundles the StepKick Caddy from partner Bronwyck as a club-management companion product, and curates recommended physical therapy, medical aid, training, and technology products through Amazon Associates affiliate links.

HHGR operates a community-led, content-first go-to-market centered on its blog, FAQ platform, YouTube tutorials, Facebook Page, and a podcast appearance on the Sports Philanthropy Network. Monetization is diversified across (a) direct sales of ReacherGolf hardware, (b) Amazon Associates commissions (3-5%) on recommended third-party products, (c) wholesale and Try Before You Buy programs for golf course PGA professionals and pro shops, and (d) a Give Back Program that donates a percentage of coupon-code-driven sales to adaptive golf non-profits including US Adaptive Golf Alliance, PGA HOPE, Veterans Golf Association, Standup & Play Foundation, Adapted Golfers Organization, USDGA, and Special Olympics. A VIVE HEALTH co-development partnership is set to launch FDA-certified industrial ReacherGolf models in mid-Q4 2025. The company is privately held, bootstrapped/self-funded, and operates with a minimal team centered on the founder and Tom Boettcher (VP Executive Officer of JTR Enterprises, Inc.).
