Orlimar Releases Tad Moore Putters

Orlimar has released its Tad Moore Signature Series of putters this month. Each putter in the series combines traditional shapes with game improvement features and a patented washboard face milling. The company says the putters give golfers consistency, accuracy and better distance control on every stroke.

"Washboard-face milled putters improve roll and performance compared to other putter faces," said Tad Moore, golf club designer. "I have found that new golf balls with different cover materials such as urethane react to the washboard face much better. The ball off of these putters has a better launch and rolls more consistent and accurate."

TMO- 3:  A classic design of a wide-sole, heel-shafted blade with a carbon steel head. This is  a perfect putter for a player who putts with an arc, because of its open-to-shut swing style.
