I've been scouring the posts to see if I could find info on the "eaiest" putter for high-handicappers. I know it's a matter of feel however, I hear there are other factors such as where the shaft is located, length, type of head, weighting etc.

My gf has a TM ghost mallet because she thought it "looked cool" and has been struggling since day one with it. We have been told that the insert on the face makes the ball come off the face "too hot" when she is within 10 or so feet. I know it's about stroke as well but, the pattern is the same no matter if she hits the ball well or not.

Any help is appreciated. Gotta pick a new one up by this weekend

Thanks!

Match the putter to her putting stroke. I like to be nearly straight back and straight through so a face balanced putter feels better for me. Her Ghost is face balanced. If she's an arc putter (the way most are taught) then putters with a bit of a toe hang are supposed to be better. I believe your putter has a bit of toe hang.

Odyssey makes lots of styles and several inserts that range from soft (White Hot) to firmer (White Ice) and a special insert for their women's line. The Divine line insert is in between the Ice and the Hot. I'd start looking at the Odyssey Divine line. They have a blade that is toe weighted and several mallet styles that are face balanced including a two-ball. I like the Rossie. Just make sure it is short enough for he eyes to be over the ball.

I feel the same about my new TM Ghost Corza.  I love how the balls comes off the face, and the alignment aides really help me take the putter back on a straight(er) line.  I'm lovin it!
