Q. Why don't I see Coutour putters on the PGA tour?

A. In the future you may, however, for the most part Coutour is investing in the manufacturing process and the quality of the putters. The bottom line is that for most Tour players to use a putter on tour, they have to be paid and paid well.  They also have access to custom fit putters made by manufacturers that are not offered "off the shelf". Coutour is dedicated to treating the regular golfer like the Tour player is treated every day.

Q. Which design is best for me?

A. The most important aspect about design is visual appeal. Does the putter look good to you? Each of the four models of putters is made with toe/heel balancing so that Coutour putters have a high movement of inertia or M.O.I.  The center of gravity (sweet spot) is also in line with the sight line, which is something many companies don't pay close attention to.  There is no best or right or wrong as far as choosing a particular design.  What is important is that the putter looks good to you, is fitted properly and made in the correct weight.
