80* lie Angle Putter

[Papaw]

Has anyone bent their putter to a 80 degree lie (10 degrees off vertical)? This seems to give me the best results of a true straight back straight through under arm putt.

Mine’s at 70*.

The cure RX5 can be adjusted to 80*. Maybe put up a WTB thread and you might get a good deal on here.

I'm pretty sure the USGA limit to the lie angle of a putter is 79*. You may want to check for sure, but if you don't participate in any USGA sanctioned events I would have to say.......BEND AWAY!:blob:

very close. I had to look it up:

long story short is lie angle cannot exceed 80 degrees on any club. A whole bunch of other requirements exist as well....

I played my Cure putter at 80° and had a lot of success. I also had the shaft at 39" so I could stand straight up.
