Abstract
A putter head having a face and a sole, the putter head comprising a front segment of the sole angled downward and rearward from the face, the front segment fading into two approximately ninety (90) degree angles and forming a radius that flattens through the approximate center of the sole then flares outward from the radius and curves upward toward the back of the sole; a first side segment of the sole angled upward from the flattened portion of the radius and blended with the front segment of the sole and the outward flaring segment of the sole; and a second side segment of the sole angled upward from the flattened portion of the radius and blended with the front segment of the sole and the outward flaring segment of the sole.
