Weighted Putters

[ApplebyFan]

I just got a "Heavy Putter Matte Series Putter" for Christmas, and absolutely fell in love with it. It just has a great feel in my hands. It feels a whole lot better than my old putter Does anyone else use a weighted putter?

My trial last spring with a weighted putter wasn't positive... (i forgot the exact model, it was a Ping with a great big head and head cover).. just couldn't get the distance consistent even after hours on the putting green. Sticking with my Cameron Circa'62...guess I'm just comfortable with it.

i tried some of the weighted puttes and didn't like them. I was set on the odyssey 2-ball SRT, but tried the scotty cameron futra phantom offset mallet. and for how big it is, it is accually kind of light.

My putter has what I believe is a belly putter head on a 33" or so shaft and it is just right for me. It is a bit heavier giving it a more solid feel without being overly heavy. I did like the Heavy Putter very much when I played around with it at Golf Galaxy, but it did take some getting used to. I was afraid the extra weight would have me knocking balls across the store so I was very, very tentative at first. But once you get the hang of it it is pretty sweet.

I may try a heavier grip and/or a weight in the butt end and perhaps some tungsten powder down the bottom of the shaft just to boost it up a bit more, but I need to get a swing weight scale first before I mess with it.

I don't think most of the responses in this thread were on the mark about "weighted putters". It's being able to alter the weight within a minute and changing the entire feel/performance of the putter

I use a WEIGHTED PUTTER and so does Vijay Singh. This is what I use:

Vijay uses a Never Compromise that has removable and interchangable weights as well as a couple of other tour players. Here is his, it's a GM2 Exchange mallet:

What it gives you the ability to do is take it from as light as a feather to as heavy as he!l along with changing the center of gravity to either high or low for slow/fast greens to get the ball to roll better. These babies are super.

I have one, too. I LOVE IT! The bane of my golf existence was the 4-6 ft putt...not anymore! The pendulum stroke really is helped by the weight of the putter and how it is distributed.

On the longish putts 25 ft and further, I had to get used to the weight and gauging distance. I had to change my putting grip and stance, by opening up my stance (which you should to anyway on any long putts) and switched to a baseball grip vs. the overlap I use for shorter putts.
