Hammy Putter
HAMMY PUTTER Milled Faced Putter
If you’ve watched the LPGA at all this year, you no doubt have seen Natalie Gulbis working with her “Hammy” putter. It seems to me to be as much a new style of putting as a new style of putter.
Using the Hammy looks a lot like working with a hockey stock. With your hands apart, you address the ball with an open stance. To putt, your right hand serves as a guide, and a shoulder turn is used to deliver the force.
The theory behind this putter is that it allows you to use both eyes to aim, eliminating the problem of eye dominance and lack of perspective. Since your head is essentially behind the ball, you get a good look at the hole.
The club is called the Hammy because the inventor came up with it while recuperating from a hamstring injury. While he originally used a regular putter, the triple bend and split grip was designed specificaly for the new putting style.
