Buyer’s Guide: Best putters for under £200
When we talk about putters it is a very personal choice often based around looks more so than any other club in the bag.
Broadly speaking, there are two types of putters you will encounter: blade putters and mallet putters.
Typically, mallet putters are known for being more forgiving with their larger heads. This means a lot of their weight is often distributed away from the clubface, so players find plenty of stability and balance in their strokes.
On the other hand, blade putters are a favourite amongst golf ‘purists’. These putters are heavily toe-weighted with a sweet spot positioned closer toward the heel, meaning they’ll suit players who have an arc in their putting stroke.
Whichever type of putter you go for, our buyer’s guide details what we think are the best putters available for under £200.

The Spider line is generally know for its loud bold and rather large putters but I really like the fact we also have the option of some smaller, more traditional styles here. Traditionalists and modernists eat your heart out.
