I'm 6'0 and use a 34" putter. I bought it when on a trip to Sabah in 2005 and it has been a great accidental purchase. I used to use a 35" and never realised how far I was reaching down the grip to putt. The shorter putter was a revelation. Even thinking of trialing a 33" one.

I'm 6'3 and use a 33" putter. Maybe I have long arms or something, it feels most comfortable and my arms are extended.

I am 5' 6", and I use a 32" putter. I could use a 31". I like my arms to feel as if they hang straight down, even though there is a bit of break in my elbows.

I am 5'10" and I use a 35" putter. I likle to stand tall over my putts. I feel I can see the line better.

I'm 6'2" and used to use a 36. I am having fabulous results with a 33" bettinardi bb8 with 2 head long strips of lead tape along the bottom.

How can I tell my putter is to long for me and how much I need to shorten it. Im 5'11 and have a 35. I used to putt straight up but now have switched and am more to the bottom of the grip then i used to be.

Posted
I'm also using a 35" callie, standing up straight seems to help get a good balanced turn without breaking the wrists for me.

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
