Putter Alignment Features Gone Bad
Remember the beautiful simplicity of a Bulls Eye putter? Now looking at modern mallet putters, do you ever wonder if it is all necessary? How did we ever manage to putt with a Bulls Eye putter... (kidding, of course)
Well, two recent putter design patents made me cringe. Looking at them you have to wonder if golfers are such idiots that we really need so much help figuring out where to hit the ball on the face and how to get the face aligned to the hole.
Check out these putters.
The figures come from USPN D537137 and D515156, respectfully.
FYI, you won’t catch me playing with either one of these anytime soon.
