My Time With Ping Putters
30 April 2011
Ping Redwood Putter in models with traditional as well as nontraditional looks can help anyone save on strokes. In 1959, Karsten Solheim invented the Ping A-1 putter in his garage, and it was the start of the brand. Ping gets its onomatopoeic name from the sound made upon contact of the putter with the ball. Solheim used in Ping putters not only his heel-toe balance theory but also the concept of reducing the putter head’s twisting at impact. The putters did not win the support of the golf shops and pro players instantly but gradually. As time went on, pros and amateurs won more tournaments with Ping putters than other makes of putter. The winningest and most copied putter is said to be the Ping Anser putter, designed in 1966. Whether your preferred putter may be steel-faced, insert, or 100 percent milled, Ping putters are equipped with the technology.
