Lefties Only Golf Tip: So when it comes to choosing a putter, there are a lot of different factors that go into it and its very difficult for me to actually tell you which putter will be better for you. Best thing for you to do is go out to a shop that has a nice big wide selection of putters and just work your way down the line and try different types. One of the times you’ll pick up a putter, it will just sit behind the ball nicely, it will rock backwards and forwards nicely with a good grip and a good weight and when you strike the ball that will feel nicely.
