Anybody here paying attention to a putter's swingweight? I putt really well with a friend's putter so I asked him to borrow it (Odyssey dual force 550-black insert-older model) so I could check a few things out. Turns out the swingweight is D2.5 at 35 inches from the center of the face. My other not so likeable putters come in at D1 +- at the same length and are up for sale or for a donation. It may not be the only factor in the equation but seems to me that the subject of putter swingweight is hardly ever discussed as a fitting parameter.

Any of you have any hot tips/words of wisdom on this subject? I'm thinking a putter analysis at the course I do a little work at might be fun. >From a few things I've read, it looks like checking loft and lie would be the main things to work on. Is putter loft/lie fitting done dynamically (like irons), i.e. watch a few putts and if they tend to pull left putter is too upright/push right then too flat? Will a static measurement while they address the ball tell anything? -- hanks! John Muir
