How To Choose A Putter Style That is Right for You The first point to address is putter length. There are four main lengths, conventional, belly, long and side saddle/face-on putters. For most they choose to use the conventional length putter which comes to about the pelvis area. Most golfers only opt for the belly or long or side saddle/face-on putter when there are specific areas of concern. If wrist action is a problem, these three putters help to eliminate wrist movement. This being said, there is a change in feel going from the conventional length to longer putter types. The change is from reliance on small muscles to the use of larger muscles for the stroke.

Price and quality are a huge concern no matter what type of equipment you are looking to buy. In the instance of golf equipment, you do get what you pay for.

Ultimately the answer to how to choose a putter, lies in your ability to determine your needs and get a feel of what works for you. Finding the right putter is all about complementing your technique and reaching top performance through comfort,design and practice.
