Introduction
The SeeMore putter company was established in California in 1998. The goal was to create a design that enabled the golfer to feel properly aligned before every putt. This so-called Rifle Scope Technology (RST for short) is an ingenious system, which encourages a consistent aim and set-up position. It is simple and acts as an on club training aid – use the red dot to stand and align effectively. The system appealed to a certain Payne Stewart so much that he put a SeeMore in his bag and went on to win the US Open at Pinehurst in 1999.
Further Major wins for Zach Johnson (2007 Masters and 2015 Open Championship) helped to relaunch the brand which was bought by Jim Grundberg and Jason Pouliot in 2006. These two were part of the team responsible for taking a little-known brand named Odyssey from 5% market share up to 40% prior to their purchase by Callaway in 1999.
And according to SeeMore, their predominately centre-shafted putters offer so called “Face Balanced at Impact” and have done so for over twenty years. What this means is that the SeeMore putter face will naturally remain square to the arc of the putting plane at all times, squaring up at the bottom of the arc.
The company is now introducing the SKx and SBx models as its first zero-torque putters. In these models, the putter’s shaft axis is aligned with its centre of gravity which means it’s designed to create minimal hand action to return it to square at impact. And you still have the RST system which encourages a consistent set-up and aim. So what could possibly go wrong?

NCG Summary and rating
NCG SUMMARY
These two putters are stuffed full of tech and are well-constructed. They also offer incredibly easy alignment and, for a “zero-torque” model, look surprisingly good.
PROS
- Easy alignment and set-up
- Pure roll
- Excellent feel and feedback
CONS
- You really do need to get fitted
First Impressions
The two designs offer slightly different takes on the winged mallet shape that has been prominent on tour for over a decade. We are talking Odyssey No. 7 (Incidentally, the Odyssey 7X milled has been my gamer of preference through most of 2025), Scotty Cameron Phantom and Ping Prime Tyne.

SeeMore tell us that the SKx offers us a more rounded, modern and aggressive look (inspired by high-performance sports car design!)
The SBx is more rectangular and squared off. I quickly found the SBx appearance to be my preference, due to ease of lining up, but it’s good to have a choice.
The putter construction and components are otherwise just about identical, and although you will see pictures of the two heads in this article, my review is based on the SBx.
The head has a black aluminium body with a stainless steel face. This construction shifts the centre of mass towards the front of the club, and the head is oriented in a toe-up position (as is customary for zero-torque putters). The centre shaft is placed just back from the face, with its entry point into the head matching the centre of gravity. This is done to maintain the club face’s position as square to the path of the stroke.
All this adds up to a putter that has as good-looking a head as any zero-torque model I have tried. This is a good thing.
There are grooves on the stainless steel face to encourage a smooth and consistent roll. My test putters were standard at 34″ length, 2.5′ loft, a standard black tip shaft, lie angle of 70′ and a standard 75gm SeeMore red grip. All these parameters are adjustable. For example you can order a longer counterbalanced 39″ inch shaft with a 120gm grip, and a lie angle of anything from 68′ to 73′.
When you consider the retail price (think of it as an investment) of £425, and the fact that relatively few of us will be familiar with the SeeMore system, then I would strongly recommend that you get properly fitted for a putter such as this. And this is spoken by someone who has had countless driver and iron fittings, but I’ve never had a putter fitting. I ask myself why this is the case, and I think the answer, up to now, has always been that I can pick up a putter, roll a few putts and decide whether I like it or not.
A classy head cover with a soft furry liner, magnetic closure (so much better than Velcro) and a leather look completes the package.
When all is said and done, the standard putter that was supplied for testing seemed to suit me just fine although my playing partner did point out that I was initially putting with the toe in the air. Once I picked up on that , everything seemed to work a bit better.
Pleasing to the eye
As an ageing golfer who is clinging on to Category 1 status with a handicap of 3.8, I regard myself as an average putter. Historically I have mostly used a toe-hang putter of the Anser/Newport style, with an opening/closing stroke, much like Tiger Woods in his prime.
But when you look at the putter choices of the professionals on tour, then most surveys indicate that mallet- style putters are preferred by 80-90% of players. So in 2025, I generally gamed an Odyssey Milled 7X (as used by Xander Schauffele), which I found offered easy alignment, good distance control and stability on those awkward four or five foot putts. And I think that 2026 may be the year I dip my toe into zero torque territory.
But two things have held me back so far. The first is that it still seems to me that the overwhelming majority of the world’s best players are still using mallet putters such as the TaylorMade Spider, Scotty Cameron Phantom and Odyssey 7/Jailbird. So far the only zero torque Major winner is JJ Spaun. And other zero torque adopters are, in my view, notoriously flaky putters (you know who you are). Should that matter? Perhaps not, but I’d rather be wielding a flat stick used by a multiple Tour winner.

The second issue I have is that I have not, until now, stood over a zero torque putter and liked what I was looking at (with the possible exception of the Scotty Fastback OC).
But both the SBx and SKx were not unappealing to look at. Yes, they still look functional rather than pretty. But they do offer a sense of purpose, which I rather liked.
Rifle Scope Technology
The RST (Rifle Scope Technology, remember?) offers a consistent aim and alignment , and is built around vertical shaft alignment with no forward press, delivering (in standard form) 2.5′ of loft to achieve consistent roll and distance control.
The RST system is straightforward to use, assists with consistent setup and alignment positioning, and can also help with a consistent pre-shot routine. In basic terms, address the ball as you would normally do and move the putter until you can no longer see the red dot. The carousel pictures below is an attempt to show this, in an exaggerated way, but hopefully this illustrates the point for you. It really is very simple but effective.
What I found
The design of the putter with a perpendicular sight line on the flange, was incredibly easy to align, and the putter was nicely weighted at 355gms head weight. You can customise up to 375gms.
I was also able to achieve a pretty consistent and smooth stroke. SeeMore tells us that this is because “True zero torque balance is delivering SeeMore’s highest ever stroke stability”, which is good to know. The feel off the centre of the club face was soft, feeling a little harsher on off-centre hits. Thankfully most of the time the ball came out of the middle of the face.

Because of the consistent setup, alignment and stroke provided by the technology in the SBx, it seemed that all I had to concentrate on was distance control, and this was generally consistent. If I purposefully hit a putt off the extreme toe or heel, I reckon there was around 8-10% loss of distance, but those were on deliberately big misses. Interestingly a heel miss seemed to do worse than a toe miss.
Our greens are already good for the time of year, and last time out with this putter, I managed 5 birdies and even though one was a chip-in, I am still feeling excited at the prospect of giving the SBx an extended trial in the first half of the season
NCG Verdict
To summarize, if you are in the market for a zero torque putter, then the two models from SeeMore have to be on your shortlist. Yes, they do not yet have the profile of TaylorMade, Odyssey, Scotty Cameron et al yet, but they offer strong technological features that pleasantly surprised me. Just make sure you do get fitted!
