6'5" and use a 35". I have had longer putters but this works best for me.

By the way.....the Squareback isn't nessesarily an upgrade from the Red X series....in fact, I'd take a Red X3 or X5 anyday over the Squareback in terms of feel and how it sets up to the ball. That's just my opinion....worth perhaps exactly what you paid for it...nada.

6'3" Tall
34" Putter.

Don't forget that some people have long arms like a monkey, and others have short little arms like a T-Rex

5'-9", and grip down on a 33" almost to the shaft metal. Attended one of the Dave Pelz clinics and his minions/disciples there were all using cut-down putters that looked like something a child would use. We thought it was some kind of joke but they were serious about it and were deadly with them. If you see pictures of Dave he actually uses one of those little sawed-off things. Not sure exactly what they measure in as, but if I had to guess I'd say approaching 30", possibly less.

Im 5-11 and i use a 34 inch putter. I grip down probably a 1/4 inch though. I never seem to use the entire grip. I think if i got my putter shortened to 33 3/4 id just grip down 1/4 inch again...lol.

I'm 6' 1" and use a 35 inch. I have changed my stroke a few times over the years and have gone to shorter putters at times. Currently I like to have the same stance as with irons and the 35 inch is the perfect length because it allows my arms to hang straight for a smooth pendulum stroke. I have also putted with a more bent over stance (similar to Jack Nichlaus) and used a shorter putter when using that stance.

If you have a square-to-square stroke you might want to consider a center-shafted putter. For that style putting it's easier to keep the face square than it is my a heel shafted, toe-weighted putter (at least in my opinion). I putted with that approach for several years and had much better luck with center-shafted putters.

I'm 5'11" or 6' and I use a 32 and 1/4" putter. I am going to be going to be putting the UST frequency shaft in my callie - f a nd making it a 34" putter though. Hurts my back with the shorter putter.

6'4", 34" oddysee, but my next (and finally, last!) fitted club is a putter (ping).

Im actually a better putter than the lower handicap players I play with. Its been tossed around that my accuracy with a hockey puck could have something to do with that. Im a defenseman, and i've always moved the puck a lot. But im good at reading breaks in the green too.

Now if i could just develop some accuracy with the rest of my clubs.

You hockey players... haha, my best friend here played college and for our semi-pro team last year... I love hockey but I can't skate... guess it has something to do with being in the south, my dad's from detroit and played as a kid
