2023 TOMCAT 14 MID-LENGTH PUTTER

The 2023 Tomcat 14 Mid-Length is the counterweighted grip variant of Ping's Tomcat 14 head, built around a 17" grip rather than the standard length. Ping's own page describes the head as a "Straight-taper, midsized pistol with larger flat surfaces for increased face awareness," and that description carries over word for word between the mid-length listing and the standard Tomcat 14 listing. The grip itself is the point of differentiation here: Ping's copy notes it "is heavier than a standard grip to act as a counterweight for more stability and control throughout the stroke, and has a tacky feel."

Beyond the grip swap, the maker's prose gives no separate account of the mid-length head shape, so what's on record points to a shared casting or milling between the two Tomcat 14 releases, with the 17" counterweighted grip and its rubber under-listing as the feature that sets this edition apart. The page also repeats the same note on "designated markings" for setup, language identical to the standard-length listing, suggesting Ping treated the alignment aids as constant across both grip options.

Ping.com is reported by an outside publication to have listed this release under Limited Availability, though that comes from editorial reporting on the manufacturer's site rather than a claim Ping itself makes in the product prose supplied here, so it should be read as one outlet's account of availability rather than an established fact.
