After all, if you know how to properly use a putter, then chances are that you are experienced at reading a green, as well as figuring out and controlling the speed and distance of your ball. You may even have the knowledge of how to create a pure roll with your golf ball; but this information is useless if you do not know how to use a putter. Knowing how to use a putter has many, many benefits.
No matter what, one highly important aspect of a putter is its alignment. Even if you read your green to the best of your ability and had a perfect speed and roll with your ball - if the putter was not lined up correctly to make the shot, chances are you won't make it. Your putter's alignment means everything in a game. Even if you think that you can read your green to the best of your ability, you may not be able to totally hit the ball with the best speed and roll. Playing this game over and over will show you how to line up the ball to make the shot. You may need to use line, circles, holes, dots, and other features to line yourself up for the shot - but no matter what, with the right putter, it will end up where you want.
What type of putter you choose is completely up to you. Putters are typically chosen based upon a personal preference. Remember that in golf, every person is different. You may choose a putter based on its style, its weight, its look, or its technology. The putter you choose is completely up to you and your personal style.
There are a variety of guidelines that can assist you in purchasing a putter. The basic types of putters are as follows:
Putter blades: Putter blades are generally narrow and flat. On the market today, there are several putters that are widely popular among low-to-handicap players. This is due to the enhanced feel of the putters. The blade of every putter entered more in the middle compared to other types. A blade putter provides extra weight in the heel and toe of the putter to improve forgiveness on off center hits. Blade style putters give you a thin top line to look at while you are over the ball.
Perimeter weight: A perimeter-weighted putter design is a forgiving design. The perimeter weightied design distributes the weight around the edges of the club-head, in turn creating a larger sweet spot that helps stabilize any slight mishaps.
Mallets: Mallets feature a large, round club-head. The weight of these mallet putters is usually balanced throughout the head for a more consistent putting stroke.
Insert: An insert is designed with composite inserts. These insert putters offer a great feel on the putt, as well as a highly a smooth roll.
The TOWD (True Orbit Weighting Dynamics) design family of putting instruments are for those players seeking an advanced skill level. By inducing a precise and repeatable putting stroke, through a near perfect arced pendulum effect, with a consistent, passive face rotation, The TOWD putters generate optimal passive feel, making TOWD putters the most advanced and easiest to use putting instruments in the game. Playing on undulating greens, of variable speed, the feel from TOWD putting instruments for rolling the ball, making meticulous strokes of exact distance and line control is without equal.
The more you use a TOWD, the more it becomes an extension of your anatomy and the more precise and confident your putting evolves, until a kind of awakening develops as you line-up your putts. Putting as artistry, through science, is now yours. You only need to focus on the read and the speed. Mechanics become a reliable memory.
These putters employ high density Toe High/Heel Low??¢ masses which move with virtually equal inertia. A dynamic never before achieved in head design. A movement dynamic that once experienced, is the new standard, satisfying the most demanding requirements of any accomplished player. These putters "know" what to do because they are designed to take advantage of the subtle yet complex physics of putting dynamics. Putting tools that help guide the user to proper swing mechanics. There is no need to manipulate the head to overcome unfavorable inertial forces. The feeling is one of a more passive stroke where the putter seems to do all the work. Resulting in the most solid feeling and repeatable putting stroke a player could experience. Physics and bio-mechanics evolve into what the user experiences as artistry and feel. The guess work and doubt of what the putter might do, disappears, leaving you to properly concentrate on the ball and the green. Demystifying the stroke, the mystery is now our advantage.
It is well accepted that heel/toe weighting in putter heads has been the most significant advancement in putter design technology since its creation. The majority of the best putters made over the last 4 decades incorporate this design feature in some way. It is a superior element to creating a "forgiving" roll, with a greater transfer of inertia at impact. Yet traditional heel/toe weighting has limitations. It's purpose is to create stability at impact and does not address the effects of movement dynamics throughout the stroke. The TOWD has overcome those limitations through a vast improvement, Toe High/Heel Low??¢ weight dynamics, creating the most advanced, dynamic putter design available.
The common heel/toe configuration in putter heads, has those masses moving parallel to the ground through the stroke. However, the shaft and swing plane move on an incline through the stroke, anywhere from 10 to 23 degrees or more away from 90 degrees vertical. (The rules of golf require this.) Naturally, the putter moves through the stroke on an incline plane, inducing a small horizontally arced swing path. As the putter is moved in the back swing, the head naturally moves inside the target line and the putter face swings open in relation to that line. Ideally, the face stays perpendicular to the swing path arc throughout the swing. The face opens and then sequentially shuts, back to square. At impact, the toe mass must move at a greater velocity than the heel mass to get the face to square at impact. The toe mass is further out from the center of rotation of the swing arc than the heel, so the toe must travel a greater distance, at a higher velocity to get back to square. This heel/toe velocity differential varies with the different length strokes required for each putt as well, making a repeatable, precise club face squaring at impact, much more of a challenge than it need be. The TOWD design eliminates this problem once and for all.
