Awesome video!!! I Frankenstined a Ping Sigma G blade putter when this armlock craze started. Sold it to a buddy of mine. I later found a Sik putter for $200 and I will never go back to conventional.

I’ve been looking to convert a putter of mine for a while now. Great information. Thanks!

Great video AJ. Thanks! For someone like me who often builds his own clubs, your videos are a huge help. This will be a great way to try armlock putting without spending a fortune on a new putter. My other project is to build a "Not a Chipper" and test it out.

This just saved what I was starting to feel like was an irritating task lol. I can now just find the putter I want and convert it

Always a pleasure to watch because you know what, I have to replace all my grips . . . lots of good visuals, thank you.

Also try a heavy putter. It's made a significant difference in my putting. For me, rhythm and a smooth pendulum motion are much easier to achieve.

Good info. I could never get along with a traditional arm-lock putter so I tried a reverse arm-lock putter on a whim where the putter locks into my trail arm and have not looked back. Such a much better putter as a result.

Awesome video AJ. Although I don’t use one, I love the arm lock style putter especially that grip which I believe Evenroll was the first company to design that style grip. Yeah left hand low is the way too go especially with an armlock. I’ve been putting left hand low since the early 90’s ! What I don’t understand how the broomstick style putter isn’t banned entirely. Yes it’s allowed as long as the butt end is not touching your body (chest) but it’s a pendulum motion and takes out your hands entirely out from the stroke !

Do a build your own broomstick please! I understand it won’t be as easy as a specially bored grip

Did you feel any need to adjust head weight? I believe most arm lock putters have a head weight of about 400g. With my DIY arm lock conversions I found that having a putter with adjustable head weight was really helpful for me to get a good feel for lag putts.

Isn't one of the big perks of the SIK and Cobra armlocks the descending face technology along with a maximum upright lie angle. Seems like pretty important aspects of correct armlock putting to ensure straight back straight through putting ? Simply extending a 34" 2 ball putter 6 inches would probably cause the toe to dig in ?

I'd try one is these, but I don't have enough room in any of my golf bags to allow me to shove that grip down in the bag. And if I did pull that off, then might have a problem getting the putter/grip out of the bag. Oh the humanity.

Any thoughts on wristlock putter conversions? Love your videos AJ, I've messaged you before, you are a real inspiration.

1. Instead of an extension, can you just cut an old club? I realize there will be a slight bump. 2. It looks like you cut yours a bit short. Not sure if you are getting the full benefit of the arm lock concept. Your thoughts?

Great job...could you flip the grip around and use it for a reverse arm lock putter and putt braced against your rear arm?

If you did the flat side down on install, would it make the angle beneficial for a "reverse Lock" putter grip? Like Kucher?

Just bought the AL-3 grip. The instructions on their web site (for the AL 2 grip) says "The grip should be installed so that the logo faces out towards the ball." I don't think their wording is very good at all. I sent a question to their support people. However, the picture on the instructions show the logo facing the putter head, which makes sense, they would want their logo to face forward like that. I'm installing the AL 3 grip this weekend. I don't think they updated the instructions for the AL 3 grip but I suspect the instructions would be the same as the AL 2 grip.

Thanks for the great video. This could really change my game for the better. I was wondering if you thought using masking tape to install the putter grip would work like it does on irons. I wanted to try different heads and it would be easier to get the grip off and on with masking tape. Also, what about using an old shaft to extend the putter rather than ordering a shaft extender?

Could a regular broomstick putter be easily modified to a face on/ sidesaddle putter?

So the heavier grip raises the balance point of the club making it have more feel, correct?

Question, I'm going to try this with my Odyssey Triple Track Ten S putter, I removed the grip last night and it had a 40 Gram weight in the butt section of the shaft. It also had two 20 removable weights in the head... After installing a shaft extension do you suggest adding this much weight back into the butt of the putter? I stopped using it last summer and went back to my Red 7 Putter, so I figured the Ten would be a good one to try this with.

Seemed like the flat side of grip should face forward…no?

Would love to see a video on installing a stability putter shaft. I have a Scotty 5s that I think is 350mm … was thinking of buying a 335mm shaft cutting it at 350mm then installing that to cut for the stability putter shaft to attach to then keeping the original shaft if I want to set up with original again… does this make sense or do I have it completely wrong?

Are there any loft considerations for using just a wrist lock grip?

AJ, if golf fittings for irons are using quick removable heads and shafts at their fittings, why haven’t the OEM’s offered them for use like the new drivers? I just received new JOX923 HM Pro irons and the shafts are as typical fixed shafts in the heads. Just thought it’s interesting subject.

I would have thought the flat part of the grip would be the part that rests on the arm.

Great video AJ. I been wanting to try an Armlock putter but didn’t want to spend money on another putter, I have too many as it is. I have two identical putters so I am going to try it on one. Forgive my ignorance but I went to order the extension and you have to pick 0.580 or 0.600 butt size. What is the difference and how do I know which one I got? Thanks a million.

How do you know what size extension to buy?

Do you need a heavy putter head (400gm) or do you still have enough feel with a standard head (360gm)?

Hey AJ. I recently found an old bullseye putter in the bag of some clubs I bought. I realised it was not as buttery as my other bullseye's because I didn't have any whipping. Have you ever tried adding whipping to dampen "bad" vibrations from putters?

Hi, can a belly putter be converted to a armlock putter

this grip lists a 432 gram wgt/ does this have a counterbalanced effect?

i have a few questions ( unrelated to this video which was very good)on club length and unfortunately i have very no good fitters near my home. im thinking about cutting my irons dow 1". im a shorter golfer (5'5") so i think this would fit me better. do you need to add head weight for swing weight? is putting weight in the shaft he best method? how much weight is needed? thanks in advance for any insight you can offer

Will this work with a center-shafted putter?

Would it be better to have flat side up against forearm ?

Aren’t the armlock putter heads totally different? Different lofts etc to compensate for the position the shaft has to be put in for the grip to run along your arm?

Where did you get the extension?

That link is locked 🔒 .. it asks for a PASSWORD

Why not just use belly putter? Length should be OK may even need to just trim it slightly shorter but at least no need for shaft extension. Head weight should be better for the extended length.

Would this work for a lefty or would this reverse for southpaw
