After all, if you know how to properly use a putter, then chances are that you are experienced at reading a green, as well as figuring out and controlling the speed and distance of your ball. You may even have the knowledge of how to create a pure roll with your golf ball; but this information is useless if you do not know how to use a putter. Knowing how to use a putter has many, many benefits.

No matter what, one highly important aspect of a putter is its alignment. Even if you read your green to the best of your ability and had a perfect speed and roll with your ball – if the putter was not lined up correctly to make the shot, chances are you won’t make it. Your putter’s alignment means everything in a game. Even if you think that you can read your green to the best of your ability, you may not be able to totally hit the ball with the best speed and roll. Playing this game over and over will show you how to line up the ball to make the shot. You may need to use line, circles, holes, dots, and other features to line yourself up for the shot – but no matter what, with the right putter, it will end up where you want.

What type of putter you choose is completely up to you. Putters are typically chosen based upon a personal preference. Remember that in golf, every person is different. You may choose a putter based on its style, its weight, its look, or its technology. The putter you choose is completely up to you and your personal style.

There are a variety of guidelines that can assist you in purchasing a putter. The basic types of putters are as follows:

Putter blades:
Putter blades are generally narrow and flat. On the market today, there are several putters that are widely popular among low-to-handicap players. This is due to the enhanced feel of the putters. The blade of every putter entered more in the middle compared to other types. A blade putter provides extra weight in the heel and toe of the putter to improve forgiveness on off center hits. Blade style putters give you a thin top line to look at while you are over the ball.

Perimeter weight:
A perimeter-weighted putter design is a forgiving design. The perimeter weightied design distributes the weight around the edges of the club-head, in turn creating a larger sweet spot that helps stabilize any slight mishaps.

Mallets:
Mallets feature a large, round club-head. The weight of these mallet putters is usually balanced throughout the head for a more consistent putting stroke.

Insert:
An insert is designed with composite inserts. These insert putters offer a great feel on the putt, as well as a highly a smooth roll.

Golf geeks

What do you buy the golf geek who has the best golf clubs and golf balls money can buy and every golf accessory you can think of and even collects rare and antique golf balls? Probably not one of the below novelty gifts not unless you want to come to an unhappy ending – golf clubs can make nasty weapons when swung in anger you know. Golfers can have a one-track mind when it comes to the game, witnessed by the popular golf joke about the father-son talk’.

The father-son talk

A father spoke to his son, It’s time we had a little talk, my son. Soon, you will have urges and feelings you’ve never had before. Your heart will pound and your hands will sweat. You’ll be pre-occupied and won’t be able to think of anything else. He added, But don’t worry, it’s perfectly normal…it’s called golf. The kind of person who laughs at this joke probably won’t laugh at novelty golf balls. But here’s a few anyway because they’re fun:

Okay, so this is one of those novelty golf balls that probably won’t go down to well if your golfer owns a very expensive luxury car, but if you own a beat up banger, than the fun will be all yours. The Smasher is a sticker that looks like smashed glass with half a real golf ball in the middle. Stick it on the windshield and it looks like a golf ball has smashed through!

Once more, this gimmick probably won’t be appreciated by the more intense player. This gag is up there alongside the exploding golf ball slip this spring-loaded gadget into the hole, and when the ball falls in, it springs right out again.

Looks like a regular golf ball! But naturally it isn’t. This golf ball explodes on impact. Just make sure your golfing buddy doesn’t have heart problems.

Imagine the scene your golfing buddy is nearing the end of the best game of golf in his life. He only has one putt to make to feel like Tiger Woods. He is in golfing heaven when you switch his golf ball for The Wobbler when he’s not looking. He takes the putt and the ball wobbles its way across the green missing the hole and ruining his game. Warning: Do not use unless you want to risk your life and friendship.

You’re probably better off buying novelty toilet roll than ruining your golfing friend’s game by messing with their golf balls.
