The Record

Written from the sources it cites · machine-drafted for the Community to correct

The Karsten 1959 Anser X arrived in 2011 as part of Ping's Anser lineage, carrying the "X" designation into a field crowded with variations on Karsten Solheim's original design. golfbluebook.com reports the head at 345 grams, built from stainless steel with a non-glare satin finish, and lists a soft elastomer cavity insert set into the face.

The specs golfbluebook.com puts forward suggest a putter built for a face balanced stroke, with a thin top rail keeping the sightline low and unobtrusive at address. That combination, face balanced geometry paired with a cavity-back insert, points toward a putter meant to soften feel while keeping the classic Anser profile intact rather than chasing a heavier, more toe-hung build.

golfbluebook.com also lists an MSRP of 100.00 USD for this release. Taken together, the reported figures place the 1959 Anser X as an accessible entry in the Anser family, built with a milder feel than a face-forward blade might carry, though none of this is confirmed beyond the one source cited here.
