Abstract
A golf putter, with an extended length shaft having an upper end adapted to be held against the front of the golfer's body in an anchor position during the putting stroke. A club head is affixed to the lower end of the shaft, and has a planar ball-striking face formed thereon. A shaft grip is positioned intermediate the upper and lower ends. The shaft grip extends backwardly from the shaft means away from and transverse to the ball-striking face of the club head. The shaft grip is positioned along the length of the shaft to enable gripping thereof by the golfer's other hand. The shaft grip may be one elongated member, or a pair of vertically spaced elongated members. When the spaced elongated members are used, the shaft may be separated at the inner ends of the elongated members while the outer ends are connected together to form a U-shaped shaft grip whereby the shaft grip becomes a part of a continuous shaft having a U-shaped bend intermediate the club head and the upper end of the shaft.
