Ben Hogan Golf Precision Milled FORGED Putter Line Preview - First Putter Introduction in Nearly 15 Years

Ben Hogan once said, "There are no shortcuts in the quest for perfection."  And today the Ben Hogan Golf Equipment Company introduced its first putter line in nearly fifteen years.  The new Precision Milled FORGED putter line promises unmatched feel on consistency on the face for ultimate distance control and true roll. 

 

The new CNC precision milled putters are crafted from soft, 1020 carbon steel in a multi-step forging process that strengthens and purifies the molecular structure of the metal.  True forging refines and tightens the grain structure of the steel and provides for uniform density across the entire face.  This eliminates hot spots (or dead areas) and results in unparalleled feel, consistent distance control, "trueness" on every roll. 

The new putters are available in four traditional head models with clean, elegant lines, and a proprietary DBM (Diamond Black Metal) finish that eliminates glare and generates more contrast with the ball.  While the face of every putter is CNC milled for perfect flatness from heel to toe. 

Ben Hogan Golf President, Scott White said, 
"A 100-percent, forged, CNC precision milled putter is not the least expensive nor the easiest way to make a putter by any means, but at Ben Hogan Golf we believe it is the best way.  Serious golfers demand precision and performance on the greens, and the new Ben Hogan Precision Milled Forged putters deliver.  They look great, but perform even better." 

 

The four models in the new line of Ben Hogan Golf Precision Milled FORGED Putters include: 

Plumber's Neck Blade
One shaft offset, 2-degrees loft, 355 gram head weight, and 43-degree toe hang to promote an active gate-swing putting stroke

One shaft offset, 2-degrees loft, 355 gram head weight, and face-balanced for golfers who prefer a straight-back and straight-through stroke

Available in right-hand models only, the standard length for all putters is 35 inches, but can be customized in lengths ranging from 33.5" to 36.5" (in one-half increments).  While the standard lie on all putters is 70-degrees, but can be adjusted plus or minus 2-degrees flat or upright. 

 

The putters will sell for $250 each, and come with three choices of SuperStroke grips: Flatso 1.0, MidSlim 2.0, and Slim 3.0.  For more information check out www.BenHoganGolf.com, and follow them on twitter @BHGolfEquipment and on Instagram @benhogangolf.
