| Please contact our new dealer
information line at 1-800-790-0569 for information regarding setting up
a dealer account. |
|
| CHOOSING PUTTER LENGTH |
| As a general rule, we recommend
for people who are 5'10" or taller get a 35" putter, 5'5"
- 5'9" get a 34" putter, and 5'4" or shorter get a 33"
putter. |
|
| CHOOSING BETWEEN PUTTERS |
|
Both Blade and Mallet styles work for open and close putting, as well
as straight back, straight through putting. They are also designed to be
exactly the same on weight and have the same great feel. If you are
used to the visual effects of a blade style putter, then you would more
than likely prefer the blade. However, the mallet style frames up
the bars and gives you a longer sight line behind the ball.

OFFSET PUTTER AVAILABILTY
|
| Thank you for your interest in Guerin
Rife putters. We are now offering right-handed offset putters in both blade
and mallet styles. They are available in 33, 34, and 35 inch lengths. |
|
|
OFFSET VS. NON OFFSET
|
| Sometimes, it is personal preference as
far as the look of the putter is set up. For alignment purposes and for
proper set up, the idea is to get the person's eyes to be directly over
the ball, particularly the player's dominant eye. For a right-handed player
who has a dominant left eye, the eye closest to the hole, we would typically
fit them with a straight shafted putter because that puts their dominant
eye over the ball. For a person who is right eye dominant, the eye furthest
from the hole, we would give them an offset shaft. Putting the ball under
the dominant eye helps the player line up the putt with more accuracy .
Offset putters typically help golfers keep their hands in front of the ball
at impact and promotes less break down in the wrists. |

|
| WHEN PUTTING WITH A SLIGHT PRESS
DOES THE OFFSET HELP OR MAKES IT WORSE? |
|
The length of the putter and being offset does not have much to do with
the forward press. It does naturally set your hands forward of the ball
so you will not need to forward press as much as normal to get your hands
ahead of the ball. If you are worried about your forward press affecting
your putting because of delofting , simply add loft to the putter by bending
the shaft forward towards the ball using the bending tool. This ensures
that when the putter is pressed forward, the putter's loft will be returned
to its original optimal position of 2 degrees.
