The main types of putters are:

• Blade putters – traditional, compact, suited for players with an arc stroke
  
• Mallet putters – larger head, more forgiving, ideal for straighter strokes
  
• Mid-mallets – a blend of both for balance and control
  

Mallet putters are generally best for beginners because they offer more forgiveness, better alignment aids, and improved stability through the stroke.

Choosing the right putter depends on:

• Your stroke type (straight vs arc)
  
• Head shape preference (blade or mallet)
  
• Alignment features
  
• Feel and balance
  

Getting fitted is always recommended for best results.

Most standard putters are 33”–35”. The right length depends on your height and posture. You should be able to comfortably line your eyes over the ball at address.

Blade putters offer more feel and are preferred by golfers with a natural arc in their stroke. Mallet putters provide more forgiveness and stability, helping keep the face square.

Premium putters often feature better materials, face technology, and balance, which can improve consistency and feel, but the right fit is more important than price alone.

Yes! mallet putters have a higher moment of inertia (MOI), which helps reduce twisting on off-centre hits and keeps your putts more consistent.

Many pros use blade putters for feel and control, but mallets have become increasingly popular on tour due to their forgiveness and alignment benefits.

Putter grips vary from standard to oversized. Larger grips can reduce wrist movement and help stabilise your stroke, especially for players struggling with consistency.
