Abstract
The present invention concerns a putter used in the game of golf. Specifically, the putter of the present invention is designed so that the sweet spot on the clubhead is generally aligned with the golfer's hand(s) when positioned at the top of the shaft, for a short shafted putter, and the center of the shaft, for a long shafted putter. The basic design requires a shaft which is affixed toward the toe end of the clubhead. The overall configuration of the golf putter of the present invention promotes a golfswing in which the sweet spot and the golfer's hand(s) travel together along the target line, thereby creating a straight putting stroke.
