The PING Prodi G Anser Junior Putter brings tour-proven putter technology to young golfers aged 7 to 13, sized for players approximately 135–160 cm (4'5"–5'2") tall. Built on the same performance platform as PING's adult clubs and custom-built at PING headquarters to each junior's exact specifications, the Prodi G Anser is the ideal first serious putter for a developing game. The classic Anser blade shape — one of the most successful putter designs of all time — delivers confidence-inspiring alignment, natural feel, and genuine forgiveness that helps juniors build a consistent, repeatable stroke from the very start.
Every Prodi G club is engineered and built at PING's Phoenix headquarters to the junior's individual specifications, ensuring that equipment fits the player — not the other way around. The Anser putter is available in right-hand and left-hand versions across multiple lengths, and comes complete with a headcover.
The Anser is not simply a classic — it is one of the most decorated and imitated putter designs in the history of golf, with more professional wins to its credit than virtually any other model. For junior golfers, this shape brings real benefits: the compact blade head sits low and square behind the ball, making alignment intuitive even for beginners. The familiar, uncluttered look builds confidence at address, while the proven geometry of the Anser promotes a natural, repeatable stroke that transfers into real on-course improvement as young players develop. Choosing the Anser for a junior means starting with a design that professionals trust at the highest level of the game.
The 320-gram 17-4 stainless steel head is engineered with weight concentrated toward the heel and toe of the putter face. This perimeter weighting strategy raises the moment of inertia (MOI), meaning that putts struck slightly off-center retain their direction and speed far better than a center-heavy design would allow. For junior golfers who are still refining their stroke mechanics, this built-in forgiveness is invaluable — even imperfect contact produces a roll that stays on line and gives the young golfer a positive experience on the greens. The result is more holed putts, more confidence, and a love of putting that carries through a lifetime of golf.
A single, clean alignment line runs along the top of the Anser's blade, giving juniors one clear visual reference to square the putter face to their intended target line. Unlike more complex multi-line or dot-based systems, the single line is easy to understand and quick to set up — ideal for players who are still learning the fundamentals of green reading and target alignment. This deliberate simplicity encourages good pre-shot habits and reduces the time spent over the ball, helping younger players develop a calm, focused pre-putt routine that stands them in good stead as their game matures.
The geometry of the Anser blade is specifically suited to a slight-arc putting stroke — a gently curved path that opens and closes the face slightly relative to the swing arc, rather than remaining perfectly square throughout. This is the most natural putting stroke for the majority of golfers, including juniors, because it mirrors the body's natural rotation. By using a putter that matches this stroke type, young golfers receive helpful feedback through the club during the stroke, allowing them to feel the correct amount of face rotation through impact. Learning to sense face rotation early is a significant developmental advantage that helps junior golfers build touch, distance control, and directional accuracy on the greens.
The Prodi G Anser putter is fitted with a dedicated junior steel shaft — manufactured by Nippon — that has been selected and tuned specifically for the lighter swing speeds and shorter stroke arcs of junior golfers. The putter is available across four standard lengths (27.5", 29.5", 30.5", and 31.5") to accommodate the full height range the Prodi G program covers. A standard length of 29.5" suits the mid-range of the target player profile, while shorter and longer options ensure that players at either end of the height spectrum can still be properly fit. PING's custom-build process ensures every putter leaves the factory at the correct length for the individual player, not as a generic off-the-shelf club.
PING's "Get Golf Growing" program recognizes that junior golfers grow quickly, and equipment that fits perfectly today may not fit as well in 12 to 18 months. When a parent or guardian purchases five or more Prodi G clubs in a single transaction, they become eligible for a one-time, no-charge club adjustment service. This service covers re-shafting or lengthening, re-weighting, and re-gripping — everything needed to bring the clubs back into the correct fitting specification as the child grows. The program applies exclusively to the Prodi G product line, and adjustments are limited to the minimum and maximum lengths specified for each club model. This unique offering makes Prodi G one of the most cost-effective routes into properly custom-fit junior golf equipment available anywhere.
