Need a Very Heavy Putter


JohnBarry

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a very heavy blade putter. Now I know I could find a used "Heavy Putter" but are there other out there that have weight sets or are very much heavier than the standard blades out there?

Heavy head or heavy total weight? And what do you consider heavy? Best option outside of a heavy putter would be to find a belly or long putter and cut it down. Maybe odyssey tank putter?

Yes, what do you mean by "heavy"?  

Most blade putters have head weights around 340-350g.  That was too light for me.  I actually played a "Heavy Putter" blade for several years and enjoyed it.  The extra weight straightened out my backswing and produced a much better tempo.  But... it's... heavy!  and it lacked feel.   I was looking for putters with head weights around 400 grams and most are mallets, and the weight is offset with a counterbalance or long shaft.  I was fitted at Ping for their Sigma G Doon and love the counterbalance feel.  Some don't.

I supposed you could get a blade putter with changeable weights like a Scotty Select Newport and change out the weights, but I think you would have to add counterbalance to the grip end to make it feel right.

Like@Kennyb said, the heavy putter is about as heavy as it gets. I know that Cure makes some adjustable weights that can get heavy too. You can also try and cut down an old belly putter to give you a super heavy head as well.

I tried that with a brand new Cleveland belly putter that was dirt cheap after they were banned.  The feel was too heavy in the head for my liking, but counterweight it and it should be fine; the lie angle might be a little off.  I ended up buying the Ping instead.

Someone asked about this on another forum and the two putters recommended were the Evnroll 2.2 Mid Blade & MLA Golf blade.

Thanks for all the suggestion, never thought about cutting down the belly putter, awesome idea! I may buy one and a Heavy Putter (brand). I am looking to be 400 grams or above, just feels better for me, but I wanted to test roll a few before I did, and of course I can find anything used locally to give it a roll.

Your location says you are in Va Beach.  If you want to drive to the peninsula the addicted to golf store has a cute RXi listed on their used club list.  Don’t know it it has all the weights but the cure website says it can get up to 410gr.  To bad they sold the va  beach store or they could transfer it over.

I was going to post these. It’s been several years since I gamed one but the original models were quite loud. Softball bat sounding. Other than that they are good putters

I just got a Cleveland TFI 2135 8 CB putter at 35" this offseason - thing is pretty darn heavy. According to the specs, the head weighs 405g and the grip 148g. Haven't tried it on the greens yet as the courses aren't open, and I'll be comparing it to my current Versa 9, but just on a mat it seems very very stable. It does however feel completely different to anything I've tried before in terms of weight and the way you swing it - I feel it completely neutralizes any movement in my hands/wrists and I can get a nice constant stroke.

Trying to play as much golf as I can up in Trondheim, Norway.

I have a Cleveland Classic Belly head which is 400 g. A bit heavy for me, might try to counterweight it.  The Cleveland Gutcheck is one of my gamers at 365 g. These can easily take a large snsr grip and still feel fine in terms of balance.
