Abstract
A golf putter comprising a shaft having a handle end and an at least partially threaded putter head end wherein the handle end and the putter head end of the shaft are at a shaft angle from about 10 degrees to about 20 degrees to one another, a putter head of a first density having a ball striking side, a rear side, two ends, two upwardly extending ears each having at least one golf ball guide receiving slot, a top surface, a bottom surface, a top half and a bottom half wherein the ball striking side of the putter extends upward from the bottom surface at an angle of 89-86 degrees from the bottom surface thereby creating an angle that imparts top spin to a golf ball when stuck by the ball striking side of the putter head, at least one golf ball guide positioned within the golf ball guide receiving slots, at least one, a weight having a second density where the second density is greater than the first density of the putter head wherein the weight is within the channel thereby lowering the center of gravity of the putter head below the center of the putter head, and wherein the top surface of the putter head includes a recess adapted to receive and interact with the putter head end of the shaft.
