I am 6 foot even. I use a 35" I used to prefer 34" but the extra inch seems to take the pressure off my back. I stand fairly errect and a little farther away than most would consider ideal.

I'm between 5'7" and 5'8". My putter length is 33" and 2 degrees upright. My arms are hanging straight down without much bend when I putt and I stand pretty erect.

5-11 (181), 35", standard Yes Tracy 2 lie

I think I slightly choke down on my grip so maybe a 34.5 might be playing length. I stand very close to ball and have short arms (69" reach). Not good for boxing but works for golf.

6'1 35" putter. i prefer to stand fairly upright when i putt.

Ditto. I'm actually 6 feet and a half inch, but I'm six-one in shoes

I use a 35". I picked up a 33" and couldn't make it get to the ground.

I need a whole new bag of clubs, but I just sold some old video games and what not on eBay and have a little extra money, so I'm thinking of starting with a putter. I'm really in love with Odyssey, so that's most likely the brand I'll be going with. I'm thinking either the Sabertooth (which I've tried out briefly) or the White Hot #1, which I haven't had a chance to hit yet. I'm obviously going to get in and try out the #1, but has anyone else putted with it before? Did you like it? If the #1 feels as good as the Sabertooth did, I'm going to go with that just because it's cheaper.

Anyhow, on to my main question. What length putter should I get? Is there a way that this should be measured or is it all about preference?

Depends on how tall you are.

I'm only 5'9" so i got a 33" and it's great.
