I’ve always been a fan of Ping putters. The best putter I ever had was my trusty old Ping Zing. Unfortunately for me (not my opponents) that putter was stolen.

Ping has a new series of putters called “IN” which are very cool. The IN putter and other Ping gear is in my Ping image gallery.  If you rotated this image 90 degrees clockwise wouldn’t it look like a bear’s head?

Ping Craz-E Putter Review

PING Craz-E Putter - click for more

The Ping company has been long recognized for it’s pioneering design of golf clubs. There is always a buzz about the new Ping drivers, wedges or irons. But I don’t think Ping gets enough credit for it’s putter design and innovation.

The Ping Craz-E putter is a whole new concept in design. The face has a blue urethane insert which gives it a soft feel. The blue urethane insert line behind the face provides a strong alignment visual.

The weighting of the putter is heavy in the heel, toe and rear of the putter which gives it that “low center of gravity” that all golfers seem to need. The crescent shapes along with the blue line gives an optical aid which helps you aim and align properly. Ping calls this the Optigraphic Effect.

I don’t really know if the Optigraphic Effect is why the putter works so well for me. I think that the putter just “feels” great. It is just a static piece of metal and plastic but when I put it in motion it feels very smooth and wants to travel square to the target line. The weighting is balanced perfectly and helps you produce a pendulum like stroke.

Two other typically unimportant items that are overlooked with putters are the cover and the grip. Ping’s design is equally as great here. The cover is a very nice thick leather with a magnetic seal. I like the fact that they didn’t use velcro, which over time wears out and looks shabby. The Winn AVS grip (right) is the best feeling grip I’ve ever used.

There are also 5 shaft/hosel configurations to match your taste.

My rating on the Craz-E putter is a 9 out of 10. They got it all right on this one.
