Ping Anser 2X Putter. Ping founder Karsten Solheim sounded a revolution in golf club design with the introduction of his first putter in 1959. "I've got a name for my putter," Karsten exclaimed to his wife, "Listen to it PING." Karsten began manufacturing the putter out of his garage in Redwood City, and the rest is history. Proven performance at every level distinguishes Ping's stainless steel putter line - all of which have major championships over the years. All offer the performance and aesthetics of all Ping putters, including a solid feel and heel-toe weighting with a low centre of gravity. All Ping stainless steel putters are treated to a satin finish to resist the scratches that come with normal use.There are fourteen different versions of the Anser produced by Ping. The Anser X is unique to the line because it is a "face-balanced" putter. Being a face-balanced putter, the Anser X is designed for pure pendulum strokes - dead straight back and away.
