Re: ShopTalk: Heavy Putter

[Dave Tutelman]

IMHO, swingweight is not an interesting measurement for a putter. Again, 
swingweight was designed as a measurement for full-swing clubs. It measures 
the heft felt as you uncock the wrists. If you have a swing with no wrist 
cock (like a good putter swing), then swingweight is irrelevant.

Total weight and balance point -- independently, two separate numbers -- 
are interesting putter specs.
