CAN YOU USE A HOMEMADE CLUB?

-

PGA Tour player Bryson DeChambeau, famous for using irons that are all the same length, continues to break new equipment ground. This time, it was with a putter he built to use with a sidesaddle technique. It’s perfectly legal to build your own putter, as long as it satisfies the specific conditions outlined in the Rules of Golf. Among the requiremen­ts: at least 18 inches in length, a lie angle of at least 10 degrees, no more than 10 degrees of loft and a head that isn’t longer than it is wide. For materials, it’s up to you, your imaginatio­n and your wallet.
