The Best Golf Putters For 2024

By: Kieran Clark | Wed 12 Jun 2024

Putting is the most intuitive part of the game that requires touch and feel, but that instinctive nature is also why it often defies reason and your success on the greens can be temperamental.

Having a solid technique is paramount, as is your skill at reading the breaks and judging pace, but so much about putting is artistic, and having a club in your hands that simply looks right can make all the difference.

Putters have evolved through time and encompass a wide variety of styles that cover just about every possible taste and eccentricity that you may have.

If you want to see just how successful you are on the greens, then we recommend comparing your stats to other golfers in our recent feature article Are You a Better Putter Than You Think?.

Should your numbers be falling short of an acceptable standard, then perhaps it's time for change. That's where Golfshake's Equipment Expert, Ryan Rastall comes into his own, as our resident PGA Professional has picked out a selection of putters that could transform your game this season and beyond.

Presenting models across different price points, Ryan can help you to decide which putter could be right for you. He also talks through the importance of getting custom fit for a new putter given there are so many different options available that offer a variety of heads, necks, lengths, lofts, lies and grips to suit a range of putting styles.

You can see what he has chosen in this video that you can either watch directly on YouTube or at the bottom of this page.

Additionally, Ryan has given us a list of putters that he believes stand above the rest. Let's take a closer look at them now.

The Best Putters of 2024

TaylorMade Spider Tour

The Spider range of putters from TaylorMade has consistently been among the most popular selection of models on the market, and the latest iterations are no exception. The Spider Tour is a particular standout, which was reviewed here by Ryan. You will find this to be a highly forgiving mallet-style putter that benefits from key technologies such as True Path Alignment, Pure Roll and TSS weighting, all of which have been introduced to improve your consistency on the greens.

Key Features

True Pat Alignment System
White TPU Pure Roll Insert
HYBRAR ECHO Damper
TSS Weighting

Odyssey Ai-One Milled

It doesn't get much better than an Odyssey putter - especially a premium model - and that's what you get from the Ai-One Milled, which brings together a range of different head styles. You can see what Ryan made of them in this first-look assessment and a more comprehensive review that he did at a later date. Looking specifically at the Eleven T model, which is a popular head-shape, the putter was engineered by the use of artificial intelligence to ensure that it offers consistent speed across the entirety of the face, greatly increasing the sweet spot and reducing the impact of off-centre hits.

Key Features

Ai-One Milled Insert
Interchangeable Front Weights
Navy Blue PVD Finish

Scotty Cameron Super Select

If you're someone who appreciates quality presented in a traditional fashion, then Scotty Cameron's Super Select is potentially the range for you. These come in a more bladed style and this brand name is synonymous with the highest standards of putter manufacturing and is arguably the most iconic in the sport. Many of you dream of owning a Scotty, some of you already do, but if you're wanting to treat yourself to one, this might be the place to start.

Key Features

Dual-Milled Face Technology
I-BEAM Plumbing Neck
Performance Weighting (Tungsten Sole Weights)

Cobra 3D Printed

Cobra's 3D Printed range of putters has been upgraded for 2024, and we're taking a specific look at the Supernova 2.0. It offers a fang style that provides great stability and benefits from a single bend shaft that has been designed for players with a straight-back, straight-through stroke type. Cobra's engineers collaborated with LA Golf to create a putter face that improves ball roll, while the Adjustable Weighting System allows golfers to customise the putter to their preferences.

Key Features

Wilson Staff Model

Wilson Staff offers a fantastic range of putters and we're going to pick out the blade-style model that should be attractive to golfers who value a traditional look. It has been milled from a solid block of ultra-soft 304 stainless steel. This has also been aligned with performance-balanced weighting to enhance your consistency and sense of control on the greens.

Bettinardi BB Series

Bettinardi BB

The Bettinardi BB Series is an ultra-premium range that does appeal to those with a discerning eye and there are a variety of options available, but we're going to pay attention to the BB8, which has applied tour insights to a classic blade head shape. The centre of gravity has been balanced as the toe is 10% larger than the heel, which counter-balances the mass of the putter to provide confidence over every putt with its flat topline and lean profile.

Key Features

303 Stainless Steel
Perpetual Flymill Face Milling
Black Pearl PVD Finish
Black PVD Tour Grade Shaft / Electric Blue Lamkin Putter Grip

The Best Lower Price Putters of 2024

Zebra Putters

If you're searching for a far more affordable putter, then Zebra is a brand to consider. The AIT 2 showcases the design of a small mallet but offers the forgiveness of a high MOI model. This has been made possible by the internal weighting deployed alongside the fang design.

Key Features

High MOI
Internal Weighting
Friction Roll Control Insert

Odyssey DFX

If you still want to benefit from the technology and innovation of an Odyssey putter, but without the expense, then the acclaimed manufacturer's DFX family is the one for you. There are a wide variety of options available, covering a range of head shapes and styles, but how about the Rossie OS? Its headline feature is the DFX Face Insert that is around 20% softer than the popular White Hot, meaning that it's ideal for those golfers who favour a soft feel and smooth roll.

Premium Black Finish

Wilson Infinite

The Wilson Infinite range is another more affordable prospect that should appeal to many golfers, especially considering there is a choice of head styles available, which once more underlines Ryan's point on the importance of being custom-fitted. Let's use the striking Buckingham model as an example to showcase this family of putters, and from this, you can expect a double-milled face pattern that helps to create a consistent feel and roll on the greens.

Key Features

Double-Milled Face
Focus Activation Parallel Alignment Lines
PVD Anti-Glare Finish
Steel Putter Shaft
Wilson Staff Midsize Multi-Textured No-Taper Grip

Cleveland HB Soft 2

Finally, Ryan has suggested the Cleveland HB Soft 2, which is the latest offering in this range from the popular brand. There is a huge selection of head and neck styles available (nine to be exact), ensuring that there is something for everyone, but if you love a blade, then that's what was showcased by our PGA Pro in the video below. Speed Optimised Face Technology is part of all these putters and has been introduced to deliver greater consistency on the greens, whatever your stroke style.
