Many golfers choose clubs with heads that are low to the ground in order to make sure that they hit the ball with precision and accuracy. While oversized clubheads are popular, low clubheads encourage a consistent swing. These so-called low-profile clubs and a low-profile putter can help a golfer improve his overall game.
Speed Putts
Many golfers like to use a low-profile putter when they face a putt of great distance. A low-profile putter is significantly lighter than a standard or oversized putter. The golfer must provide more power and momentum when using a low-profile putter. That creates a greater "feel" for the ball when the putter head makes contact with the ball.
Straighter Roll
Using a low-profile putter can give a golfer a better chance of hitting a straighter putt. The larger the clubface, the more contact there is with the ball. The more contact there is with the ball, the greater the chance that you will not make straight or solid contact with the ball, leading it to roll off the desired track. A smooth stroke with a low clubhead will give you a better chance of rolling the ball directly at the hole.
Enhanced Feel
Since a low-profile putter has less area that strikes the ball, you are much more likely to get a true feel for the ball on the clubhead when you putt with one. Because the ball is struck with a small area, it can be easier to control a putt that will break, or curve, on its way to the hole.
