Golf putting is one of the decisive strokes in all classes of golf, as many strokes can be saved or lost here. Golf putting is very practice-intensive and is often not practiced as much as teeing off, for example. Golf putting accounts for up to 40% of all golf shots on a round of golf. A special club, the so-called putter, is used for golf putting. This is used to roll the ball over the short mown golf green into the hole. There are now many different types of putters, as there is probably no other golf shot where the material is so responsible for the success or failure of a shot as in golf putting. Mallet, blade or centershaft putters are the three most common shapes, although so-called broomstick or belly putters with extra-long shafts are also popular, especially with players who are less comfortable with a standard putter.
