Baby Ben Putter Center Shaft

Summary:
WOW! Besides the fact I got it in MINT condition for $45 (incl. shipping), it could be the nicest, most accurate putter I've ever used. This was my first time using a center shafted putter, but I can tell you it was a breeze to adjust. My partner and I shot a gross -4 Best Ball in a Turkey Shoot (2nd place). Included in the round were birdie putts by me of 30', 11' and an eagle putt of 9' (off a 210 yd Hybrid shot). I NEVER had a 3 putt (rare for me), and my longest par putt was maybe 3'. Easy to line up, loved the feel, distance control is a snap, and the magnetic headcover should last a lot longer than velcro. I love trying new equipment but I NEVER PLAN ON GETTING RID OF THIS PUTTER! MY SEARCH IS OVER.

Customer Service:
Never used, bought the club off EBay

Ben Hogan Bettinardi Baby Ben BHB-9

Summary:
This putter really does have something - lovely weight and balance and a quality finish. Now I'm not going to say I took less putts with it than my previous putter but I know it's going to be in my bag for a good time already. What it does is make putting easy - no mean feat! Once I get more used to it I am certain this will result in less putts per round - thanks Mr H... Been searching for 'the one' for a long time and usually favour blades but this is the best yet.

Ben Hogen Baby Ben

Summary:
Like most that have played for 5-10 years, I have went through many good putters, tring to find "the one". I am here to post that the Baby Ben is the real deal. It has great feel and excellent visual aids. I have only played a couple rounds with it, but the puts I missed were clearly me and I knew it the second it left the club face. The way it is weighted, it almost feels as if it is assisting you in the backstroke. Got it cheap too!

Ben Hogan Baby Ben

Summary:
This putter proves you DON'T need an expensive putter to get great quality and feel.($50) Overall a great putter for anyone with preferences toward heavier putters. It is a lighter version of the Big Ben which I found too heavy. I Have the 35 inch center shaft version, and it is the best feeling putter I have used to date. I look forward to those tricky 10 footers because I feel more confident with it. I have tried everything from blades to very heavy mallet putters and this one takes them all. With a Blue head, lime green grip and headcover this putter gets noticed, but for all the right reasons.

Ben Hogan Baby Ben Putter

Summary:
Bought a second hand baby ben from ebay for $39. Went out and promptly had 26 putts over 18 holes, including 10 one putt greens. The head is stable, feel is great and distance control is excellent. I've always been a blade user but now I'm sold out for mallets.
