Number one TaylorMade_Rossa_Corza_Ghost_Putter Taylormade Rossa Corza Ghost Putter
This putter is so easy to use that it sits comfortably atop our list. Simple for beginners to pick up and instantly improve their game, it features a white club head which will contrast with the ground to provide the novice golfer with a good visualisation of the angle of contact with the ball.
Number two Wilson_Deep_Red_Putter Wilson Deep Red Putter
This club is not only very affordable for those who have recently taken up golf, but it also has a great feel to it. It features a fat shaft, to avoid unnecessary twisting. This is a great choice for a beginner looking to improve their short game.
Number three Ping_Redwood_Piper_Putter Ping Redwood Piper Putter
Ping's Redwood Piper serves as homage to Redwood City, California, the home of the first Ping putter. A solid feel, classic look and a textured grip make this a great putter for beginners, and the perfectly weighted head will mean that your stroke consistency will improve greatly if you invest in one.
Number four Nike_Ignite_Putter Nike Ignite Putter
Featuring an extremely light polymer insert, the Nike Ignite putter has a lightweight feel for improved comfort and control, which is great news for beginners. The progressive back weight means that you'll also find these putters very forgiving, with superb weighting and balance.
Number five Wilson_ProStaff_LCG_Putter Wilson ProStaff LCG Putter
This putter is extremely forgiving, which is great news for those new to the game. It's perfect for anyone looking to improve their game, we believe that this is one of the top choices for beginners, and it also features an integrated alignment aid to help aid accuracy.
Number six Taylormade_Rossa_Ghost_Daytona_Putter TaylorMade Rossa Ghost Daytona Putter
This extremely popular putter features Taylor Made's AGSI+ insert system, which is designed to improve smoothness when putting by reducing backspin. It was designed with the help of feedback from the world-renowned putter Dave Stockton, so you can be sure of its credentials as a truly remarkable club.
Number seven Ping_Karsten_Series_CRAZ-E_Putter Ping Karsten Series CRAZ-E Putter
This putter was specifically designed for optimum performance, and it has a number of nifty features that will greatly help golfers improve their game. An in-built alignment aid, sight lines and contours, and elastomer inserts in the cavity all combine to increase accuracy and performance.
Number eight Titleist_Scotty_Cameron_Studio_Select_Putter Titleist Scotty Cameron Studio Select Putter
This putter has good heel and toe weighting, resulting in a heavy yet comfortable feel with excellent stability. It affords superb accuracy and forgiveness, with a particularly large sweet spot, meaning that it's a great choice if you're looking to improve your putting quickly.
Number nine Mizuno_Golf_Line_90_Putter Mizuno Golf Line 90 Putter
This putter is specifically designed with the beginner in mind, with a good weight to help improve a novice golfer's stroke. A slightly unusual alignment system, featuring lines parallel to the face of the putter, has proven to be very effective in aiding golfers both new to the game and veteran with their putting.
Number ten Nike_Method_Putter Nike Method Putter
This putter features Polymetal Groove Technology, which is designed to allow faster, more controlled forward roll at impact. Its Golf Pride Method Putter grip also means that it has a really nice feel. It would have been higher in the list, as it’s simply one of the best putters on the market – whatever your standard of play – the only reason it’s not nearer the top is due to how much it costs.
