The Futura putters by Titleist/Scotty Cameron are a concept that brewed for over five years before release. The signature feature of the putters lies in the unique weight distribution. The back weighted putter achieves a high moment of inertia wihich is key to achieving a square approach to the line and an enlarged sweet spot which minimizes twisting of the putter face on off center hits.

The Futura putters in look are a far cry from the traditional putter. The face of the putter is attached to a back weight that is shaped in the form of a semi circle. A quick glance would bring back memories of the Old West, and branding irons.

The actual shaft of the putter joins just behind the face. This strategic placement helps to aide in the smooth flow of swing by creating stable balance. The balance created produces a correct swing path and an effortless ball roll.

The Scotty Cameron Futura putters signify more than incredible balance, distribution, and design. They show the move toward the focus on back weighted putters for increased moment of inertia and a more pendulum like stroke. The wave of designs reflects the attention to the relativity to physics and golf. Even so, the putting tools are only effective when your score begins to decrease. If you are struggling with your putting, buying a new tool isn’t always the answer. A putter won’t be able to improve your game if your fundamentals and techniques are wrong.

Rossa Monza putters are taking a slightly different approach to putter technology. They feature a design that is free of complex configurations. Their main objective is to create putters that assist the golfer in aligning the ball to the hole, and achieving a straight roll.

The head of the Rossa Monza putters is designed around alignment and gravity. Inserted in the center of the head are two center of gravity pipes. Nestled between these two pipes is a strongly visible white aim line. This combination helps the golfer to consistently aim the shot while achieving a smooth and balanced stroke.

The mass of the head is positioned behind the actual putter face. The positioning capitalizes on achieving a high MOI. This technology is most notably recognized when making putts of difficult or awkward positions.

The positioning not only helps in difficult shots, but with smooth launch of the ball. The Rossa Monza putters design creates a smooth push to the ball, helping to eliminate the frustrating bounce on impact. The Monza golf putter designs come in three varying lengths, traditional, mid, and long. The fixed head weights vary from 345 to 440 grams; and the fixed lie angles from 70 to 78.5 degrees.

Odyssey putters represent some of the most popular putters in golf. They have consistently put forward putters that have appealed to golfers’ requirements and overall usage. The company’s main aim is to produce products that are consistently innovative, and superior to other products on the market. They continually bring out new model variations.

Odyssey putters were the first to introduce polymer club face inserts to the golfing world. The inserts enabled golfers to have a better feel of the ball when putting. The texture and substance of the material also lessened the noise of the club face hitting the ball. The insert is now available in three varying levels of softness.

The design and ingenuity of Odyssey putters have pushed them to the top of the putter arena. Their putters are available in twenty-six models, with differing mallet and blade designs. Each of these models features the polymer insert that was instrumental in their success. Their new line of putters utilizes golf ball material for the clubface insert.

Simply put there are many golf putters on the market. In the light of all the developments and innovative changes, choosing and buying a putter can be a challenge. This being said, buying a putter is not that much different from buying a car. You must determine what is right for your needs, and compare each product’s benefits and features. In addition, price, quality, and user ability are strong factors to consider. Last of all you must take it for a test drive. I strongly recommend that you try out as many putters as you can. You will have no better way of knowing until you get a real feel for the putter on the green.

Guren-Rife putters are popular on the Champions. They have consistently ranked high among the players. The putters feature adjustable weighting and solid roll.

The Guren-Rife Putters focus on the importance of the center of gravity and moment of inertia. The weight of the putter is moved low and deep, positioning itself right behind the center of the ball. This along with their “Roll Groove” face technology gives the ball a pure roll with little or no skidding.

Due to the unique design of the Guren-Rife putters, a higher MOI is achieved. Less wrist action is required thus creating a solid even contact of the face and ball. You virtually eliminate the chances of an awkward angled stroke, due to twisting of the wrist. Depending on your specific style and preference the putters are available in varying lengths from conventional to long. And, the putters offer an adjustable lie angle feature using a special tool to bend the shaft of the putter. Bending the shaft will change the face balance of the putter. And, the special soft metal shaft insert that allows the bending can only be adjusted a few times without risk of breakage.

The Guren-Rife Putters represent the traditional heel-toe weighted design with some added back weighting. The putters are very high quality and they are visually appealing.

The Ping Craz-e putters join the movement of putters aimed at increased moment of inertia and improved alignment. It like many others, features a new placement of weight distribution and design. This putter is the latest member of the G2i putter family.

The Ping Craz-e putters focus themselves on strategic weight placement. The weight is distributed between the heel, toe and rear of the putter. This combination creates increased accuracy through a high MOI (moment of inertia).

The product features an extended and visibly eye catching sight line to assist golfers in reaching their intended target. The act of squaring up and stroking is streamlined by creating an easier flow of stroke. Golfers find that they are able to achieve a more consistent golf putting average.

Ping Craz-e putters take a slightly different approach with the headof the club. The center of gravity is positioned low and away from the face. The company claims that this design will achieve a better roll of the ball and more control. This style of putter has proved to be a popular and growing choice among both recreational and professional golfers. The putter allows for good feel and structured smooth movement; both of which are crucial to good putting. The demand brings light to the benefits and attraction of the rear weighted mallet style putters.

Bobby Grace putters are the offering of the one of golf’s greats. They are constantly used on the tours, and have consistently ranked high among the players. The putters feature two main lines, the V-Foil MOI and the M series.

The V-Foil MOI Bobby Grace Putters The V-Foil MOI putters focus on the importance of the center of gravity and moment of inertia. The weight of the putter is moved low and deep, positioning itself right behind the center of the ball. The company has actually gained a patent on the design, due to its unique positioning.

Due to the unique design of the V-Foil Bobby Grace putters, a higher MOI is achieved. Less wrist action is required thus creating a solid even contact of the face and ball. You virtually eliminate the chances of an awkward angled stroke, due to twisting of the wrist. Depending on your specific style and preference the putters are available in varying lengths from conventional to long.

The M Series Bobby Grace Putters These golf putters represent the traditional heel-toe weighted design. The three designs come in traditional and center shafted options. The putters are made from 303 stainless steel, and are very visually appealing.

Craftsmanship and quality have made Bettinardi putters some of the greatest in the world. Bettinardi came from a family of manufacturers, and pursued in their footsteps carrying on the business. He used his skill and expertise to bring the advancements in technology to the golfing world.

The first major contribution that Bettinardi made to golf was his creation of the One-Piece Technology putter. This process has become the standard by which other manufacturers strive and often duplicate. Milled putters all across the world bear the influence of his technological contributions.

The Bettinardi putters consist of one solid piece of metal. Traditionally putters were made by wielding the pieces together. What was discovered was the wielding would actually change the consistency of the metal. The One-Piece Technology revolutionized putters by eliminating the welding process.

Bettinardi putters also feature the famed Honey Comb Finish. This procedure corrects the concave effect that traditional machines will leave on the face of the club. It utilizes a jeweler’s tool to make a small grid like pattern, which creates one of the flattest club faces on the market. Simply the beauty and benefits of Bettinardi golf putters lie in their amazing craftsmanship and innovative design. The company has and continues to make great contributions and improvements to the golfing world.

The main focus of Aserta putters has been to capture the technology to achieve a true forward roll. They have separated putter design from that of traditional clubs to move from the backspin effect to the desired topspin. The key to achieving this spin is by striking the ball on the point of center gravity with little if any loft on the putter face at impact.

The Aserta putters newest release is the Eclipse. This putter achieves the objectives and design centered around inverted mass technology. In this design the mass of the putter ispositioned at the top of the putter head. The repositioning of mass above the equator of the ball creates the optimum positioning for creating topspin as long as loft is minimized or eliminated.

The distribution of putter’s weight is also key. It distributes the weight to the sides, face, and back of the putter. This design achieves a relatively perfect balance. The company makes strong challenges to competitors about their results of creating the perfect roll. However, to date most competitor comparison putters evaluated have had loft and therefore could not be fairly rated without taking other factors into consideration. A test can always be developed to maximize performance of a given putter under one set of conditions. The true key is how the putter performs under a variety of actual playing conditions.

In addition to the Eclipse, Aserta produces the Cavity Black and Mallet putters. They also have a line of belly putters that include these same three designs. Whether you choose the Aserta model or other comparable products on the market, it is definitely recommended that you try out the putters. There is no better way to know which model will best fit your needs and style. The model takes on a whole new and true meaning when you use it on the green.
