Choosing a brand-new putter can be exciting, however with so many putters to choose from how do you choose the best club to match your play? Snainton Golf stock all the best putters from leading brands such as TaylorMade, Odyssey and Ping to name but a few, all available at great prices. Choosing your putter can be daunting so we’ve put together a guide to help find the perfect putter for you.
The most common style of putters are the blade and mallet putters both of which are great choices for a range of players. If you have an arc stroke and are fairly accurate in both direction and distance, a blade putter would be best whereas mallet putters are significantly larger and provide greater forgiveness on direction and roll. Traditionally beginners start off with a blade putter however with the constant advancement of mallet putter technology, specifically aiming to improve the control and stability of a stroke, either option would suit most players.
The length of your putter can make a huge difference to your stroke and definitely should be taken into consideration when deciding on your club of choice. Generally speaking, putters range from around 32 – 52 inches and are designed to keep your eyes over the ball. As a guide your shaft should sit comfortably within your forearm when in play.
Here’s how to find the perfect shaft length for you: firstly, take up your putting stance and let your arms hang loose, then measure the distance between the ground to above your hands – there you have it, your ideal putter shaft length!
