I have a ping B-60 putter and would like to know if the face angle can be adjusted . When at address it looks to have way more ( lets call it loft )  loft on the face say 6-8 degrees . Is there any built in adjustment a golf smith could use to bring the loft down to 1 or 2 degrees ? I am guessing at these angles and should be used only as a guideline . I got this putter cheap based only on looks . I like the feel of it and if I can get it adjusted I may invest some time in it . thanks in advance for your input . Mark

You might get a putter-fitting at a golf shop. I myself won a Ping putter in a Golf Galaxy raffle, and the B60 tested out as the best one for me.

The fitter used an iPhone app called the iPing Putter App. With the app loaded to an iPhone, you slip the iPhone into a holder which clips on below the putter grip. You hit five or six shots with each putter, and the app averages your performance for each putter on three different factors:

  • Stroke type
  • Impact angle (face loft at impact)
  • Tempo

From this info, you can select the "best putter." This link gives the details: http://www.ping.com/fitting/iPING.aspx

Also, you can use the app to improvement in your putting stroke once you get your putter tweaked.

Focus, connect and follow through!

Yes Golfsmith can probably bend the putter or at least send it into PING.  Also if you're pulling putts that could mean there is too much loft for you.
