Who in your opinion is the best golf club designer?? We often voice our opinion on the best equipment manufacturer, best course designer, best golfer..

But who has had the most profound impact on the club design world?? who are the individuals who make our stick selection and the heated OEM vs. component threads so dramatic!!

Lets keep this clean and friendly!!

I would have to echo the Solheim sentiment. Most putters that are out in the market seem to be identical or very similar to what he designed. Most of the popular putters are versions of the Anser series, such as the Cameron Newports etc.
