Choosing the right putter can be the most important decision you make when it comes to your equipment, so pay attention to the 6 important factors to consider in a golf club putter.

These six factors must be taken into consideration so that you make an informed choice of putter type and to make sure that it feels as it should be.

In fact, the putter is the club you use the most.

Choosing the right one is like choosing a best friend. This is where the brains of the putter are.

There are other factors to consider such as the length and the grip but the brains of your best friend will be the most important part of choosing the right putter.

Before looking at all of these considerations, let us first consider the most important part of this club known as the “head” of the putter.

1. The lie angle.

It is an angle between the shaft and the ground. This factor determines if the putter head is sitting perfectly flat on the ground when you are putting.

Get one that lets the head of the club rest squarely on the ground when you take your stance.

Put yourself in your most comfortable stance and ask one of your buddies to check this for you.

If the putter head is not sitting flat against the ground, you may need to have it adjusted.

2. The length of the putter.

Being comfortable when putting is another factor to consider in a golf club putter. The standard length of a putter is thirty-five inches. If you tend to stand upright, you may want it longer. If you bend over a lot, a shorter putter may be necessary.

3. The total weight of the putter.

Get one that does not feel too heavy. In general, use a lighter putter if you play on fast greens. A heavier putter may give you better results if you play on slow greens.

4. The size and shape of the head.

A perimeter-weighted putter is the best. This type of putter has a recess in the middle of the head, with most of the weight distributed on the heel and toe. This will provide you with more solid putts on off-center hits.

Two other important considerations in the head of the putter are perimeter weighting and lie-angle. Perimeter weighting has to do with the size and shape of the head.

If you look, you will see a recess in the center of the head. This recess makes it possible for the weight of the head to be distributed in the toe and the heel which is preferable.

5. A few basic considerations to keep in mind.

You are going to be making an important decision that has to do with the bottom section or the “head” of the putter.

The head is the most important part of the putter because it is the place where your ball will make contact on the green. The material in the head affects the way the ball moves and its direction across the green.

The head material is often overlooked when choosing a good putter. Typically the cheaper putters will have heads made of PCS plastic, Aluminum, or Zinc.

Because the head material is light, you will be required to hit the ball harder to get it to go the same distance as you would if your club-head was made from a more expensive material. Generally, these putters cannot be adjusted for lie, loft angle, or other variables.

On the other hand, the more expensive putters often use stainless steel, brass, titanium, wood, or a mixture of these. You can find special displays of these putters with different lie angles and lengths already built-in.

These putters will feel more solid when you strike the ball, look much better at address, and perform more consistently over time.

You will feel the difference t when you hit the ball. On a slow green, the ball will move a lot easier. On a fast green, it will seem that you hardly have to hit it at all.

6. The grip type and size.

Putters come with standard-size grips installed. This is not ideal for everyone. The larger your hands, the larger the width of the grip should be and, conversely, you should have a smaller diameter grip if your hands are small.

There are also various grips to consider so that a golfer with smaller hands may need a smaller diameter grip and vice versa. Most importantly, choose a putter that looks and feels comfortable to you because this is going to be your best friend!

With these considerations in mind, you will know that you have definitely chosen the right putter for you. The right length for you depends on how you stand when you address the ball.

A longer putter is better if you like to stand upright. A shorter putter is better if you prefer to bend over and be closer to the ground.

To sum it all up.

Buying a putter that’s right for you isn’t easy. You need to do your homework to find one that fits both your budget and your game, which means learning the different types of putters and clubheads available and their advantages.

But doing your homework is worth it because having a good putter, as I often say in my golf lessons, shaves strokes off your golf handicap.
