Influential putters and flatstick technology of the decade

With the decade nearly in the books, take a look back on some of the most influential and important putter innovations of the past 10 years.

Odyssey Works Tank Cruiser

With the anchoring ban looming, this putter that was released in 2014 made counterbalancing more appealing. Counterbalancing adds weight above the hands to discourage excessive wrist and hand action in the putting stroke and was seen as a viable alternative for players who were forced to stop anchoring. The Tank Cruiser came standard with 5-, 15- and 30-gram weight plugs that could be inserted in the grip and adjustable 10-, 15- and 20-gram weight screws that went into the heel and toe of the sole. Those weights created counterbalanced putters that weighed 365 to 385 grams that felt more natural for players looking for anchor-style stability.
