2024 Anser 2 Putter

The 2024 Anser 2 is Ping's traditionally shaped, heel-toe weighted blade entry for the year, built in 17-4 stainless steel with a shallow milled face. Ping's own page describes the grip setup in the release as a "Straight-taper, midsized pistol with larger flat surfaces for increased face awareness," with a 17-inch grip that's heavier than standard, meant to act as a counterweight for stability through the stroke.

On spec, the record holds it at 340g head weight and 3 degrees of loft, corroborated across sources, though Ping's own listing gives a fuller loft tolerance of 3° +3°/-2°. Length is listed at 35 inches with full shaft offset, a PING composite stock shaft, and a PP58 Midsize grip. Lie is where the sources diverge: carlsgolfland.com lists 70 degrees, while ca.ping.com lists 20° ±2°, a real discrepancy worth flagging rather than picking a side on. The maker's page lists a ball-width cavity and sharper ballasts framing the ball at address, meant to simplify alignment, and describes the finish as a glare-reducing raw blast treatment over the 17-4 stainless.

Reviewer opinion on the release centers on stability, forgiveness, and a firmer, more consistent roll off the shallow-milled face, with the alignment cues from the cavity and geometry drawing praise as well. ca.ping.com echoes that same read on the face, stating plainly that its shallow milled face ensures a firmer response and consistent roll.

Within the Anser 2 line, this release carries a slightly longer and narrower profile per carlsgolfland.com, and Ping currently lists its availability as limited.
