Caddiesbag is having a great deal on Heavy Putters. The C2-DF blade and G3-DF mallet designs for both men and women are on sale at 76% off for $39.99!
For those unfamiliar with the brand – the Heavy Putter creates a heavier mass of the putter head, which disengages a golfer’s small wrist muscles and engages the larger shoulder muscles of the upper body. This promotes a pendulum stroke and leads to a more consistent swing path. The heavier head mass also produces a softer feel by dampening vibration at impact. It also has incorporated extreme heel-toe weighting which creates a high moment of inertia (M.O.I). A high moment of inertia means that the putter head will resist twisting on off center hits and consequently produce straighter putts that reach the hole. These are extremely forgiving putters.
However, to be honest, I’m not a big fan for a couple of reasons. The head weights are around 465 grams with a counter weight of 250 grams in the grip end of the shaft. Getting a feel for lag putting can be an issue with that much mass behind the ball. That’s why you don’t see many guys who make their livings on Sundays gaming these putters. Also, I like to walk whenever possible and that is a lot of added weight to haul around.
But, if you’re really struggling with the consistency of your stroke, a lot of amateurs have benefited from this technology. And at these prices, you can afford to experiment around a little to see if the Heavy Putter would be a good fit for your game.
