Moore sticks to centre-shaft putter


21-07-2010

Ryan Moore led the field in putting at the Masters using a centre-shafted putter, but he went away from that style because “it’s not a very natural thing for me to look at”.

Natural or not, Moore was back to a centre-shafted blade putter from Machine Golf (part of Dogleg Right) at the AT&T National.

“I thought maybe I should re-think things and try another centre-shafted putter,” said Moore. “I was on the putting green, saw a bag with some in there, picked one up and it looked good and I threw it in. That’s how I go. Something about the alignment of it just helps me see my lines a lot better.” For the week Moore ranked second in both putts per round and putts per GIR while finishing second.
