When Finau switched to the new putter at The Open Championship, he also opted to switch back to using a conventional grip as opposed to left-hand low. He’d putted conventional at various points throughout his career, but with the new putter in the bag, he was able to make a setup tweak that changed everything.
Before switching to the Anser 2D, Finau tended to use an excessive amount of forward press at address. But the new putter has more offset which puts his hands forward at address without the use of the forward press.
He used to have a tendency to lean the shaft too far forward with his putter, which made aiming and producing the proper roll more difficult... The toe hang combined with the offset in the new putter has made it easier to start the ball on the correct line with the proper roll - that’s changed everything!
It seems now Finau feels much more comfortable putting conventional as he doesn’t need to use as much forward press at address.
