Ping’s new range of Heppler putters offer a solid steel face for golfers who prefer a firmer impact feel and sound.
Offered in nine mallets and mid-mallet styles to suit a wide variety of stroke patterns, Heppler putters are made from cast aluminum and steel to provide extreme forgiveness and optimal centre of gravity for accuracy and consistency, while a contrasting copper-and-black finish provides strong visual alignment cues.
Ping engineers combined the lighter aluminum with steel through strategic shaping and weight placement to produce extremely high MOI designs. The new Tomcat 14 (pictured), which features a 14-dot alignment aid inspired by the lights on an airport runway, is the highest MOI in the series and is designed for players with a straight or slight arc to their stroke.
Other models designed for golfers with a slight arc include the Anser 2, Piper Armlock, Tyne 3 and Ketsch, while those with a strong arc would most likely benefit from the ZB3 or the Floki, while those with a straighter stroke may prefer the Piper C, Fetch models.
A stiffer, adjustable-length shaft (32-36 inches) in black chrome is offered as standard, with a choice of four grips – PP59, PP60, PP61, and PP62.
RRPs: £250 or £275, depending on model. www.ping.com.
