What is the best sort putter for stopping pulled putts?

Question

My dad is just wondering is anyone knows

Answer 1

Does he have an alignment/mallet putter, they are the best for aiming your putt.  If his problem is distance he needs a milled face putter.  I just got a Never Compromise-Voodoo Daddy and love it.

Answer 2

If he's pulling his putts, there's a flaw in his putting stroke.  If it's an allignment problem, a few of my buddies have that Odyssey 2-ball putter that helps them see their putting line.

Answer 3

He needs to get a face balanced putter that has the shaft going into the center of the clubface....

These putters are good examples:

They set your hands ahead of the ball at address.

Good Luck!

Answer 4

I would use a heavy putter with weights. The weights can influence how the ball leaves the face. Maybe a Guerin Rife putter, or any of the new Never Comprimise models.

Answer 5

I just got the Oddessy 3 ball putter an it is unbelievable.  I never thought a putter could make such a difference.  It looks crazy and honestly I am embarrassed by its size.  However the first day I used it I had 4 birdies.  The second time I finished with 28 puts overall and the third time I hit tow 35+ foot putts for birdie.  Don't be put off by the strange appearance, try it.

Answer 6

It usually isn't the putter it is the puttee that is the problem. A  large, oversized grip will take the wrists out of the stroke.

I periodically have the same problem as your dad and have found that in addition to a sometimes "wristy" stroke,  if I have the ball placed too far forward in my stance I pull it and if it is too far back in the stance I push it.  The difference in placement is usually only an inch or less so it helps to get some time in on a practice green before you start to play to see what stroke you brought to the course -- and then adjust it if necessary.
