Conventional putters for a tall guy

[JYB]

Okay, so i'm 6'2'' and all i'm finding in the shops here in NYC are 35" long putters. Now, i've ordered a 37" Odyssey Sabertooth but is there another company that makes longer than 35" conventional putters?

im your height and i feel for ya. I couldnt find any over here out West. Try the reverse overlap grip if you're not already. Adds a little stability....much cheaper too.

I am 6' 4" and use a 34" putter... there is no standard length putter, but 32"-35" are common. My guess is that your wrist to floor is only 1"-2" longer than some guy who is 5' 9". So, why would you need a 37" putter. Also, many of the best putters in the game stand as close to the ball as possible. As long as you have a putter that puts your eyes over the ball and has an appropriate loft for you stroke, then length isn't really something to be overlly concerned about as long as it feels good. At 6' 2" you really shouldn't need a putter that is 3"-4" taller than most, unless it is the only thing that feels good to you.

I'm 6'2" and use a 33"......37" seems way off. There is no way your eyes are over the ball with a putter that long.

But hey whatever gets it in the hole....you could always buy a putter extender through Golfsmith and make whatever putter your looking at up to
9" longer.

i just can't get any kind of a feel with a 35" putter. they're way too short for me, it's just a weird situation.

I think putting is way more about confidence than mechanics, equipment or proper setup. Whatever feels good and gives you confidence is what you should go for.
