Counterbalanced putters and adjustable putters have a common attribute: changing the weight of your putter for a better fit. Counterbalanced putters add length and/or mass at the grip to shift the club's center of gravity toward your hands for a smoother stroke. And though we've seen adjustable weights in drivers for years, a putter with changeable weights can be tuned to better match your stroke or even the speed of the greens. One other benefit of those heavier designs: More mass means off-center hits will roll more like center strikes.1. RIFE SWITCHBACKThe cool part about this putter?
