Putter Counterweight For Best Results

By Christa Jarvis


In the sport of golf, the putter is a club use to make shots from a short distance away. The clubhead is exceptionally flat and the putter counterweight is distinctive from other clubs in the weight is placed a great distance from the clubface's center, thus increasing the club's inertia. The club is not used for long distance shots and is generally not used for high-speed strokes. The head of the club has a low-loft striking face. This gives the stick a so-called "sweet spot", maximizing accuracy when this spot contacts the ball.

Most of the characteristics mentioned above are allowed on putters, for example positional guides, non-circular grips, and bent shafts. One of the impressive putting improvement accessories within custom environment has shown to be the application of excess weight put into the grip end area of the putter shaft. That is a fitting technique known as 'COUNTER WEIGHTING'.

Golfers do well by employing counter weighting in their club. Putting using appropriate technique, while properly using counter weighting, provides increased accuracy and superior overall effectiveness for a golfer. Using appropriate technique requires that a golfer has the skills needed to use the putter to hit the ball and the golf ball will land in the place the golfer wants it to land.

For players who don't have fine motor control, if a considerable weight is put in the putter's shaft, the hands then feel that big weight and will be able to move better in a consistent, repeating manner. Golf players who've proven to better their putting with the help of counter weight exhibit one or more of the habits that will be be mentioned subsequently so far as putting is concerned. The first habit is the tendency to equally push and pull putts off line.

The next one worth mentioning is more than average incidence so far as off the center hit putts are concerned. Another habit is the inconsistency with controlling distance - some putts long and some putts short. The area of the back of the putter and through the golf ball could also be jerky.

The counterweights that are normally used are 60g, 80g as well as the 100g weight. Most golf players most of the time tend to use the 80g and 100g for the putter. There isn't any doubt that the chance of better putting using a heavy counterweight in the putter is extremely high.

Results reported by the clubmakers who provide counter weighting fitting services indicate an 80 percent improvement in a golfer's putting game when using counter weighting. Similar results are reported from work completed with golfers in-house. Using counter weighting will allow you to putt with greater consistency, greater accuracy, and more overall control. This will improve your overall golf score.

The increased presence of counterweight represent real, long-term market change and not just a trend for a particular season or year. It is an expansion and real awakening of a significant technology that's been proven with time. For that reason, it is here to stay.
