If you want to select the correct putter for yourself, you will have to learn to adjust to the lie. What's easier to change? A putter or a golfer? The right putter for you is the one that you feel most comfortable with. This is especially critical if your potter has a diameter adjuster. You will notice that the difference in your put's target path will be huge.
If you came to play then you better balance your face right or get off the pitch.Using a rear mounted center shaft can give a face balanced putter design. Keep in mind that the putter should be able to perform from any position on the green.
Once you've straightened out the lie situation you can properly select a putter for your height. You know you're doing it right when you're staring down directly at the ball. Your arms should be straight and ready to pounce. They should not be flexed or rigid. A good swing should be one fluid motion.
If you're gripping your putter 3-5 inches below the start of the shaft then you're the putter is of incorrect length. You need to use the natural putter sensation to groove passed this funk. If you are holding the putter near the metal then this is not the putter for you.This kept them from getting the benefit of the flat portions of the grip. You can modify the shaft yourself by taking inches off and applying a new grip. Most golf stores have a blacksmith that can perform this relatively cheap and simple procedure without much alarm.
Another common mistake is picking a putter that is too short. Many times people bought quality putters with no idea of how to use them. Golfers who don't know how to do this correctly tend to nick the ground with their swing causing the ball to become angled incorrectly. If you aim for the inside of the ball you will be creating all sorts of problems for yourself in terms of alignment. The golfer takes their normal putting posture holding a golf ball at the tip of their nose. Then throw the ball directly toward the earth so that if it kept going it would be a perfect diameter of this sphere we live on. The spot where the ball hits the ground is the point where you should be putting.
Most golfers don't check to see if the putter is the right weight. They then have to learn to use the putter as opposed to selecting the putter that best suits them. Proper weight setup for a putter is the key to good distance control and stroke consistency. Don't ignore factors that might go into proper putting such as the conditions on the green that might be affected by the weight of your head.
These are the factors that separate ignoramouses from scratch golfers. Being the ultimate putter means using the equipment best suited to you.
