2024 ANSER D PUTTER

The 2024 Anser D putter carries the Anser name into a mid toe hang, slight arc build, a step away from the face balanced designs that the Anser line's earlier heads often leaned toward. The maker's page lists a shallow milled face, 365g head weight, 3° of loft, and 70° of lie, specs that put it in the family of Anser variants without pretending to be a reissue of the original.

What distinguishes this release most is the grip and neck package rather than the head shape alone. Ping's own page describes it as a "straight-taper, midsized pistol with larger flat surfaces for increased face awareness," pairing that head with a 17" grip that Ping says "is heavier than a standard grip to act as a counterweight for more stability and control throughout the stroke, and has a tacky feel." That counterweighted setup, combined with the "designated markings" Ping cites for setup consistency, is the throughline of this specific release: a mid toe hang putter built around stability at address and through the stroke rather than around a particular milling story.

Ping's site listed the 2024 Anser D as limited in availability, per ping.com, which places it toward the narrower end of the Anser family's current offerings rather than a mainline, easy-to-find model. Against the rest of the Anser D line, the 2024 version reads as a specification-driven update, its 3° loft, 70° lie, and mid toe hang giving it a clear fitting profile, while the counterweighted grip marks it as a putter aimed squarely at golfers looking for a heavier, more stable setup rather than a lighter, traditional feel.
