Golf a game, half the time you can use 13 clubs to fight against the earth’s gravity, but the other half of the time you can only use one putter, hoping that the earth’s gravity will have mercy to let your ball fall into the hole a little faster, this sport is sometimes so contradictory.

Many people, including professionals, have a love/hate relationship with the putter. Ben Hogen, one of the greats of his generation, once said: “There’s no similarity between golf and putting, they’re two completely different things. Putting a ball into the hole is just luck, hitting the ball two feet from the hole is skill.” It is so obvious how torturous putting can be that even a great player of his generation would make a statement as if he were giving up on himself.

A lot of people don’t take putting seriously, and sometimes they spend a lot of energy and money on their driver, irons, and chipping, forgetting that it’s the putter that really puts the ball in the hole, and they don’t take it seriously. It’s like eating an egg for the whites while the more nutritious yolk gets thrown in the trash. Today’s article is designed to help you take the first step in the long journey of learning to fine-tune your putting game, and that’s to find a putter that’s right for you!
