center shafted putter

The first thing to consider while buying a golf club putter is the material that is used for the putter head itself. More so than any other golf club in your bag, your putter relies on feel to be used successfully. So the kind of material that is used for the putter head can be important. Unfortunately, there's almost no end to the different kinds of material that are used for putter heads including stainless steel, brass, copper, aluminum and lots more. The only way to see how the putter head material transmits feel is to try them all out yourself. Lighter materials also tend to contribute to more hand action in the stroke, whereas heavier putter heads tend to slow down the stroke and help it remain more consistent.

The greatest merit in using a center shafted putter is that it provides the perfect distance control and accurate putting stance. If a center shafted putter has a brass insert, then it has been observed that the feel and feedback to the player is perfectly delivered. As soon as the ball hits at the centre of the putter face, it gives a soft “click” sound that allows a golfer to gauge his/her effectiveness in putting.

Golf club putter terms explained in alphabetically order. In your search for a golf club putter that fits you many technical terms whizzed past your ears. So, let me explain some of them point by point in alphabetical order.

 

Belly Putter - Longer shaft than usually, but not the same lenght as a so-called Broomstick or Long putter. The shaft end is placed - let's call it anchored - to your belly, that's the firm hinge point for making a balanced pendule swing. Has a thicker grip. Some lady golfers swear by this putter type, others can't stand the position and rather choose for more conventional equipment.

Bent Putter or Curved Putter - The tip of the shaft has a small curve to the putter head, meant for more balance and offset.

Blade Model - Iron head form, flat face, but difficult for beginners, good for mid and especially low handicap women. Sometimes the blade model is heel shafted: the tip of the shaft is tied to the heel of these type of lady golf putters. Sometimes center shafted putter: if the shaft is tied to the center of the club head - then it is also called center shaft putter.

Broomstick Golf Club Putter or Long Putter - Longer than all other lady golf putters. This lady golf club is difficult. You have to be sure about your technique to control this one.

Center Shaft Putter - The shaft is tied to the center of the head. Difficult to control. Beginners better can choose another one.

Conventional Putter - Use this golf club putter, if you could, in other words, at least start with a conventional putter. That's what pro's are teaching us. So let us be well-behaved! Concentrate on you putting line and go!

Face Balanced - The toe and the heel are in balance. You can test this by yourself: just put the middle of the shaft on your forefinger - if the golf putter remains balancing horizontal, then it is a face balanced club. I recommended this one for short putts. Ideal for a perfect pendule swing!

Heel Toe Weighted - The weight has been distributed equally to the heel and toe - sometimes by using inserts (see under Insert), sometimes by a cavity designed center. Meant to make, according to manufacturers, the lady golf putter more forgiving.

Hosel - The point where the shaft is fixed onto the lady golf putter head.

Insert - Small stripes of metal to distributed the weight in a lady golf putter head. Inserts of soft materials are used to create a kind of a jumping or trampoline effect when you hit the ball, or a buffing effect when the putter is used at a very fast green.

Mallet - Putter with a large and well-known semi-circled head. The weight is equally devided over the head.

Milled Putter - Golf club putter heads constructed by a special production method for creating the perfect loft and precision.

Offset Golf Putter - Your hands are further ahead from the club face. Meant for lady golfers who actually push the ball to the hole. Your eyes are more above the ball, thus you can create more top spin.

Perimeter Weighted - The weight has been distributed over the edges of the head, creating a largers sweetspot, therefore these lady golf putters forgive more mishits.

Toe Weighted - The weight has been distributed to the toe of the golf club putter.
