How do I choose a putter style?

You want to balance the shaft of the putter horizontally across your open palm, allowing the head to rotate to its natural resting position. If the face points directly to the sky, you have a face-balanced putter. If the toe of the putter hangs down or to the side, you have a toe-hang putter.

Should I use a face balanced putter?

To summarize, if you like to use a straight back, straight through method, a face-balanced putter would be a great choice. If your stroke works on a slight arc, a putter with moderate toe hang would be ideal, while those with more pronounced arcs in their stroke would benefit from even more toe hang.

How do you know if your face putter is balanced?

When the club is perfectly balanced and sits horizontal relative to the ground, take a look at the club head. The more the toe of your putter head droops toward the ground, the more toe hang it has. If the face of your putter points toward the sky, then it’s face balanced.

What is the advantage of a face balanced putter?

The face balanced putter may minimize the rotation and allow more putts to start on line. A putter with a ‘toe hang’ may help the golfer that has the putting stroke too square and ends up blocking their putts at impact. The extra rotation from the putter may free them up throughout the stroke.
