How heavy is your 33" putter?

I have always used a 33" putter. From cutdown Pings, to cut down Cameron's. loved the fact that he went to 350g heads, and then 360g heads. But now, even at 360g, the swingweight is c9-d1. 35" putters play at the "tour preferred" d6.

If this is the case, shouldn't we be using 370g heads to get our swingweight up, or is there a reason a shorter putter should have a lighter swingweight,

I have a 364g Mills, a 365g Seemore, and a 370g Guerin Tour Spec. Much prefer the 370g mallet.

What weight are you using?

365g for me; wish there were more heavy options.

Recently I have also have noticed that I prefer a heavier head. The standard 350g is not doing it anymore for me. I am adding more and more tape to the bottom. My concern is I like so heavy that the tape it becoming substantial enough that I a€™m concerned about duffing it against the green.

Not particularly heavy. Around 340g head weight spec IIRC.

At 32-1/2" with a skinny Pingman grip it feels pretty light.

I play mine 32.5 inch and likes it to be 370g or above.

At 33", I try to pay at least a 380 gram head. Preferably 400 grams if the maker can accommodate.

Typically 350g but moved to 345g last year with better success.

My 33” putters all range from 350G to 360G. The putter I game most is 355G.

Scotty selects all come with 20 gram weights when they are 33’s. That makes them 370 I believe.

15’s At 34”. 10’s At 35”. I am not a Scotty expert so anyone else can chime in. I just know that’s how they do the weights.

I play a 33” ghost spider with heavier than stock weights in the weight pods and a little bit of lead tape as well.

I don’t know what the actual head weight is. Swingweight is D-0. There is no “rule” on it. It’s just preference.

I believe I read that Phil Mickelson’s SW is only in the upper C range. Don’t know where I read it so I can’t provide a link.

I thought Selects were weighted like this;

35” with 10G weight = 340G

34” with 15G weights = 350G

33” with 20G weights = 360G

I think you are right noodle...the only time he went to the higher weight was when he used that fat Pistolero grip...he needed to offset it.

I believe it’s 350,360,370.

Reason being you aren’t going to have a 33 inch putter in the D swingweight range if it isn’t at least a 370 gram head.

Maybe we can do more research

Edit... Just popped over to the Titleist site. Apparently it varies by model. So....oh well.

I'm right around 33" and have had success from 340 - 400 grams. At least 10 are between 350 - 375 and that seems to be a good fit. Grip weight and material has an influence on feel. I fiddled with lighter, heavier, bigger, slimmer, synthetic and leather grips. I seem to enjoy stitcback leather grips the best.

In short, I've putter well (and poorly) with many different putters. I'm going to experiment with a UST Frequency Filtered shaft to see if I can feel the weight of a 335 gram head at 33.5".

Sigma g kushin for me. 360g.

I’ve noticed all my putters being 32.5 feel and swing weight very based not so much on the putter grips weight but the thinkness of the putter grip. A d6 with a superstroke 2.0 and a d6 with a flatso 2.0 in which are the same weight grips have a total different feel. So I very the headweight from grip to grip putter to putter.

I tried my buddies 33" @ 350g and 375g. The 375g worked better for lightning fast green.

I play a 33 NP2 with stock 20g weights, I ordered the 25g weights and it just seemed a bit heavy for me YMMV

33" Scotty California Monterey 1.5 w/ 20gram weights. Feels great.

Also have a Tour Red Spider, cut down to 33". Feels a little light, but I actually love it.

I have a 2nd Scotty that is cut down to 33", but doesn't offer the weights on the sole. Anyway to add head weight without using lead tape?

I use a 33" length TaylorMade itsy bitsy spider, 370 gram head. Perfect!

I must be the only guy alive that cuts all his putters to 33" and doesn't mind a lighter head weight.

Nope, me too. I buy 'em at the regular 35" or whatever with the normal weight and then chop 'em down to 32-1/2" and I'm good to go.

I play my TeI3 at 33.5 and 330g. This is coming from a 365g Potenza and I thought I would never say it but the lighter head feels great

its good to know there are at least 2 of us weirdos out there....

It’s true, I am rather weird.

I like anywhere from 355g to 370g

My betti is 340 i believe at 330

Here's an older Scotty Cameron weight recommendation chart. Notice how as the length gets shorter the swing weights inherently get lower. In my opinion this is to keep the total weight from getting excessive.

I play my putters at 32.5" and done a lot of trial and error with different heads and grips. I've found that total weight is almost more important to me than swing weight and really don't care for anything that gets over 530-535g. My two favorite putters come in at 525g and 530g, both with a swing weight of C5. I believe the heads are around 360g.

Putter Length to Weight Recommendations

The following table provides a guide when changing the length and/or weight of your Scotty Cameron Studio Select putter.

• 
  Every Studio Select putter has two factory interchangeable weights. The individual gram weight of each weight is listed here.
  
• 
  Swingweights are listed with a +/- 2 swingweight point range, as the actual swingweight of any given putter may vary within these ranges.
  
• 
  One inch of shaft equals 6 swingweight points, so please take that into account when changing shaft lengths.

Lighter = Subtracting 10 total grams of head weight from Standard, which takes away 5 swingweight points. Heavier = Adding 10 total grams additional head weight than Standard, which adds 5 swingweight points. Extra Heavy = Adding 20 total grams additional head weight than Standard, which adds 10 swingweight points.

I am playing 33.5 inches at 360gm

I believe mine is around 365’ish. From what I could find out the Studio Select NP2 head is 320g, plus two 20g weights, plus a few strips of lead tape to cover up the sight line. :)

428 gram Heavy Putter mallet

428 gram Rife Switcback XL

not sure what my signature says but I just weighed them tonight and measured them .Both a hair over 33". Im a pretty decent putter and play these freakishly heavy heads because thats all Ive used from Day 1. Everyone that tries them says they're too heavy everyone elses that I try feels too light to me.
