Ping Putters for all players

Ping Putters for all players

Ping putters have a proud pedigree and distinctive styling. All Ping clubs are completely customizable and they come in such variety that there is a Ping club for everyone; even top players like Lee Westwood (who recently changed from one type of ping putter to another) enjoy the control and adjustability you get from them.

There is also a Ping Putter for every aesthetic taste, ranging from traditional to intricate edges that could rival modern art sculpture. 100% milled putters have a heft and grip that will keep you feeling secure, while steel faced pings can improve your control and trajectory. An insert putter may be the better bet for someone who needs to combine strength with a lightweight feel. The Ping Jas is a lightweight insert putter composed of nano-nickel technology which will improve alignment, making it perfect for newer players who might be less confident in their swing. The perimeter weighting of the Ping In series is another good all rounder for beginners.

The Ping I-Series is more for intermediate players, with a double insert that makes for a firm response – or ‘mallet’ feel, which helps or hinders depending on skill level. This range has modern heads that look like knuckle dusters and more traditional faced models. The Ping Karsten is another steel insert club that loses the weight of a traditional milled club but keeps the heft and solid response. The Wolverine H putter looks very cool and could be a teenage favorite. There are more affordable options like the Ping Scotsdale ZB putter, and the top end Ping Redwood, which has a RRP of £220 and is 100% milled, stainless steel and a precision head coated in black nickel.

Most Famous Putters Part One

They say you drive for show and putt for dough, so that would make the putter many player’s “money club,” right? This week, we’re going to look at famous money clubs.

Putters, as we all know, come in many shapes and sizes. Putters (cheap golf clubs)can be shaped like Futura Phantoms or the Ping Docs and look perfectly normal sitting next to a Ping Answer or a Bullseye. Putters may be the most personal instrument in a player’s bag, with everything from the lie angle, face angle, grip, shaft length, and weight coming into play and combining to give that magical sensation – feel – to the player.

When the tournament is on the line, what famous putters (Ping Golf Clubs)stroked some famous putts? Find out in this week’s edition of Trap Five.

Number Five: PING

Karsten Solheim was a General Electric engineer and a golf nut. His engineering background and his passion for golf combined in his Phoenix garage where he began working on his putting game not by practicing his stroke, but by creating a new putter. Though he made several playable prototypes, only one made it out of his garage in the end: the original PING putter, so named because of the sound the putter made when it struck a golf ball.

Solheim’s Anser putter – a revision of the original PING – was used by Julius Boros to win the Phoenix Open in 1967, and sparked a trend that’s continued to this day: heel-toe weighting in putters (and perimeter weighting in all other clubs). Solheim’s PING putters spread the weight towards the heel and toe to minimize distance loss on off-center hits, effectively enlarging the sweet spot. Almost every putter today uses heel-toe weighting.

Number Four: Wilson 8802

Arnold Palmer made it famous, but one of the best putters of all time – Ben Crenshaw – elevated the Wilson 8802 to a special place in golf’s history. Nicknamed “Little Ben,” Crenshaw’s 8802 was with him through thick and thin, but a replica was used to win the improbable one in 1995 (see comments below). Said Crenshaw’s dad of Ben’s original 8802, “It was just a putter in Harvey Penick’s shop. Ben felt it and waggled it around for a while. ‘Dad, I’d like to have it,’ he said, so I bought it for him. That club’s been the best provider in the family.” The putter cost Crenshaw’s dad .

The 8802 is a simple putter with no heel-toe weighting to speak of and a very clean, simple look. Its design may have been inspired by Calamity Jane (see below), and it won nearly as many majors. Arnold Palmer used the 8802 (and a small revision, the 8813) to win several of his majors, and Phil Mickelson has always seemed to putt best with his remake (currently made by his sponsor Callaway – i.e. Odyssey) of the venerable 8802.
