The Record
Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correctThe MacGregor Fat Lady Swings is a one-release line on our record, dated to 1994. Putterzone.com credits the design to Bobby Grace and describes the head as a mallet, hand-milled in his garage. Thegolfwire.com places it within what it calls MacGregor's full line of Bobby Grace putters, suggesting the Fat Lady Swings sat alongside other Grace-designed models of the era rather than standing apart as a singular experiment.
Putterzone.com also reports that the putter helped Nick Price win the 1994 PGA Championship by a record six shots, a claim that, if it holds, ties this single release directly to one of the more lopsided major finishes of the decade. That's the whole documented arc: no second generation, no retail line extension on record, just the one head and one big year.
Reviewer sentiment, for what it's worth, lines up with the mallet-and-blade description on file. A golfreview.com user called it a great putter, writing "Blade and Mallet traits in one. I love the feel and weight and it is very accurate. I couldn't be happier with this putter." A separate opinion on record echoes the same read, praising how it combines blade and mallet traits along with its feel and weight. Two voices, one impression, which is about as much consensus as a single-release line tends to generate.
