The biggest debate surrounding the belly putter is whether it offers an unfair advantage. If it does, why not use it? For many golfers, the reluctance is price. Belly putters aren`t cheap.
"At PowerBilt, we`re all about helping golfers enjoy the game by improving their skills with quality equipment at affordable prices," says PowerBilt President Ross Kvinge. "That`s why we`re offering several belly and long putters at less than $100 - substantially less."
