The Never Compromise putters have a look, a feel and a composition uniquely their own. The Never Compromise phenomenon has been climbing to unheard of heights as countless successful touring pros jumped on the bandwagon. NC putters were on top of the victory list on both the LPGA and Senior tours. The Z-1 Alpha 2 [...]

SeeMore makes real putters. Their putters may look like training aids, but do not let that fool you. They are the real items. Payne Stewart used a SeeMore blade to make his most memorable putt – the one on the 72nd hole at Pinehurst to win the U.S. Open. The fact that SeeMore uses its [...]

This one has proven to be a great surprise to us. We had all seen the strange Hog putters from Dogleg Right Golf in pro shops and trade shows many times. On several occasions, we had even putted with them on indoor putting carpets. The weirdly huge shafts had just made it too difficult to [...]

Musty putters are all distinguished by extreme good looks and very high levels of fit and finish. The Tiffany is no exception. The combination of ebony, rosewood and maple is radiant. As we said in an earlier Musty review, there is no golfer who would not be pleased to get one of these engraved, Musty [...]

The Scotty Cameron series of Newport putters is one of the golf world’s most successful and one of its most expensive. The Newport has won countless professional tournaments worldwide. To say that it has a cult following would not do it justice – it has a gigantic following. It is the Porsche Carrera of putters. [...]

Ralph Maltby has long been one of golf’s most innovative designers. With the Maltby P.E.T Putter, he has again delivered to the component world a distinctively original product. The P.E.T. has what GolfWorks calls a “one-piece hosel/face insert” made of CNC milled aluminum. Since the one-piece hosel/face unit becomes married to the shaft, it may [...]

There are not many putters that have an appearance as distinctive as that of the Odyssey White Hot 2-Ball. A similar design that used three ball shapes had, years ago, been deemed non-conforming by USGA. This Odyssey design does conform, however. Reactions vary as to the beauty of the 2-Ball, but all agree that the [...]

These open cavity, half-mallets are our reigning target putting champions. Many, many putters are better looking, but these Pings win more accuracy contests on our target grids in the hands of more testers than any other of our dozens of putters. Even those who do not like the B60s win with them. And, as an [...]

When the Taylor Made Tour Preferred Putter arrived, we were very pleased with the way it looked and felt. Taylor Made was obviously attempting to move into the high-end luxury putter market. The Tour Preferred, though derivative of the Ping Zing, had an elegant, polished look. It said that TM just might be on the [...]

The review of this one will be short and simple: This is a good, fine, all-around putter with universal appeal. It is an excellent choice for anyone who wants a quality flatstick but is not certain just what style of putter will suit them best. The TPM 5 is wider than than standard Anser/Newport-style of [...]

The Wilson Fat Shaft cavity mallet is one of the most attractive putters to come through our doors. The dark, charcoal metallic finish contrasted to the silver and chrome face with its bright copper insert made a powerful magnet to our testers. All picked it up with interest and looked forward eagerly to putting with [...]

Louisville Golf specializes in persimmon golf clubs. At first we thought that their True Center Persimmon Inserts were just a design gimmick intended to capitalize upon the persimmon mystique. That turned out to be untrue as the TC-3 soon revealed itself to be genuine. Still, we were reluctant to begin testing this Louisville Putter after [...]

This big, open-flanged mallet from Snake Eyes impressed us from the first time we picked it up. Testing on four different putting surfaces have added to the high esteem in which we hold this classy component putter. The feel of balance is exquisite. Golfsmith has obviously gone to a lot of trouble to engineer in [...]

This huge wedge of aluminum was made famous by Nick Price’s exceptional play in the early 90′s. He won two majors in one year with the unknown stepped mallet with the peculiar appearance. Response from the public was immediate and The Fat Lady became a celebrity. Thought by all of our testers ugly and ungainly [...]

There are fourteen different versions of the Anser produced by Ping. The Anser X is unique to the line because it is a “face-balanced” putter. When the shaft of the Anser X is suspended upon an index finger, the face runs parallel to the ground and is aimed at the sky. On the Anser 2F, [...]

This unsolicited putter, the Sonia, arrived and immediately started to delight us all with its incredible good looks and ease of use. Let us say at the outset, we became instantly prejudiced in favor of this handsome mallet. We were also relieved when it instantly began performing well on our slick target grid. It jumped [...]

The Snake Eyes Straight-In Mallet has a distinctive look to it, a look that is quite modern in a utilitarian manner. The head is large and blocky. The face is decidedly tall and the back flange quite wide. The tall face and a sculpted sole give the Straight-In a high profile and elevated center of [...]

The fit and finish on this champagne metallic putter is first rate. Those who don’t mind the oversized Fat Shaft have found it to be very attractive. Those who have disliked looking down at the thick shaft have been unable to adjust to the Wilson’s appearance. The CI-12 is a toe heavy cavity blade that [...]

The Dandy Professional Putters of Irvine, California was founded in 1995 by Alan Strand, a professional musician and avid golfer. His lead putter, the Model 4, received early recognition when Gil Morgan used it to win three Senior Tour events. It was pushed into the limelight when Vijay Singh used it to win the Masters. [...]

The Scotty Cameron Pro Platinum putters come straight from the worldwide tours and are the personal choice of Tiger Woods and David Duval. These four, intricately-designed models range from flare neck hosels to mid-mallet designs. Each model is distinguished by a platinum finish, uniquely designed to deliver a crisp and solid feel at impact. This [...]

This is the lead pony in Odyssey’s popular line of premium putters. The dominant feature of the White Hot’s is the white face insert made from the same, new compound that is used to cover the Callaway Rule 35 golf balls. (Callaway is Odyssey’s parent company). This material has a soft, elastic, tacky feel to [...]

We all read the hype about different types of putter faces and how they affect the skid and roll of a ball off the face but how many of us average golfers can honestly hold their hands up and say yes! I can see the difference immediately. Not many of us I’m sure. I do [...]
