A golf putter with a face of light weight construction, such as aluminum, and perimeter, heel-toe, weights, such as brass, attached above the striking area of the putter face on stilts that extend upward on the heel and toe of the putter face. The weights constitute the majority of the weight of the putter head. Slots in the stilts through which the weights are attached make the height of the center of gravity of the putter adjustable. When a ball is stroked with the putter with an ascending blow, to diminish the effect of the loft, the friction with the ball and the putter face allows the vertically high moment of inertia to impart overspin to the ball because the putter head rotates as such slightly at the moment of impact. When a ball is stroked with the putter with a descending blow, the putter head rotates slightly causing the friction of impact to break which allows the balls contact and friction with the putting green to have a greater effect on how the ball starts rolling.
A golf putter club head comprising:
The golf putter club head of claim 4 wherein the offset defines an axis that is offset about 10 degrees from a vertical plane passing through the club head in a front-to-rear direction.
