To say Dean Knuth’s contributions to the game of golf were significant would be an understatement.

For 16 years, Knuth was in charge of monitoring handicaps for the United States Golf Association and was dubbed “Pope of Slope” because he was the primary inventor of the USGA Course Rating and Slope System.

Take a trip to your local golf course or driving range and you'll quickly notice a trend; more players are practicing the power part of their game rather than putting. Yet, if you count the number of stokes we take with the least cumbersome club in our bag, you'd find that it accounts for a large percentage of our final score.

The new RedEye Laser Putter is an innovative, functional and fun way to practice your putting stroke.

Scotty's Studio Select Tour Only Newport 2.6 is a new model that will most likely be added to the line as a production model in 2008. For now, it's being sent to the PGA Tour for extensive testing by the best players in the business.

This straight-shafted, zero offset member of the Newport family has the head shape of a Newport 2 with a stepless shaft attached to a spud on the topline. The spud is positioned slightly back from center, which gives this putter about 1/4 toe hang. This promotes Scotty's favored arc-shaped putting path. It also warrants the distinction of being labeled a "straight-shafted" putter rather than a "center shafted" model.
