bags. A putter that does not suit your stroke type, alignment habits, or visual preferences will cost you shots on every green &#8211; no matter how well you hit the ball from the tee or approach.<\/p>\n<p>That is the problem PING set out to solve with the Scottsdale TEC (Tour Elevated Concepts) range, and the results are genuinely impressive.<\/p>\n<p>Developed through extensive research in the PING Putting Lab and shaped by direct feedback from Tour professionals, the PING Scottsdale TEC putters introduce Eye-Q alignment technology, a multi-material mallet construction, and a stroke-fitting philosophy that matches each model to a specific putting motion.<\/p>\n<p>The range comprises seven models spanning three fundamental stroke types &#8211; straight arc, slight arc, and strong arc &#8211; and includes two &#8220;onset&#8221; hosel designs that PING claims are among the clearest-sighting putter configurations they have ever produced.<\/p>\n<p>At The Golf Shop Online, we stock the full line of Ping Scottsdale TEC putters, and our team of PGA professionals is on hand to help you identify which model best suits your game.

Understanding each of these will help you appreciate why these putters perform differently to anything else at this price point.<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, minmax(250px, 1fr)); gap: 20px; margin: 25px 0;\">\n<div style=\"background: white; border: 2px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Eye-Q Alignment Technology<\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">At the heart of the Scottsdale TEC is the Eye-Q alignment system. A small dot on the top rail serves as a dedicated focal point for the eyes, aligning with a long line extending towards the back of the putter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">The principle draws on sports vision research known as &#8220;Quiet Eye&#8221; &#8211; the idea that a stable, focused gaze in the moments before and during a stroke leads to more accurate and consistent results.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">Rather than relying on vague or cluttered alignment aids, the dot-to-line system gives the eyes one clear reference point to settle on, reducing pre-stroke tension and improving aim repeatability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: white; border: 2px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">One-Piece PEBAX Insert<\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">Each Scottsdale TEC model features a one-piece PEBAX (polyether block amide) elastomer face insert. PEBAX is a high-performance polymer used in premium sporting applications precisely because it combines low weight with high energy return and excellent tactile feedback.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">In a putter face, this translates to a noticeably soft yet responsive feel at impact &#8211; the ball does not feel deadened, but it also does not produce the harsh metallic click associated with solid steel faces.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">Distance control is more consistent because the insert&#8217;s energy return is predictable, meaning the ball rolls truer and with fewer surprises across a range of impact locations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: white; border: 2px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Multi-Material Construction<\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">The body of every Scottsdale TEC model is 100% milled from aluminium &#8211; a material chosen for its low density, which allows<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">PING&#8217;s engineers are to redistribute mass more freely around the perimeter of the head. The soleplate is then made from 304 stainless steel, which adds mass low in the head to lower the centre of gravity and contribute to a more stable, consistent roll.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">Together, these two materials create a head that is both highly forgiving on off-centre hits (thanks to perimeter weighting) and aesthetically refined &#8211; the contrast between the matte silver aluminium and the darker steel sole gives the Scottsdale TEC a distinctly premium appearance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: white; border: 2px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Onset Hosel Design<\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">Two models in the range &#8211; the Ally Blue Onset and the Ketsch Onset &#8211; feature PING&#8217;s innovative onset hosel, a configuration where the shaft enters the head from behind the top rail rather than from the traditional front or side position.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">This design provides a completely unobstructed view of both the ball and the face at address, making alignment considerably easier and more intuitive.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">The onset position also places the centre of gravity behind the shaft axis, which means the putter is naturally &#8220;pulled&#8221; through the stroke for enhanced stability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">This is a particularly useful feature for golfers who have struggled with consistency in aim or who feel that conventional hosels obscure their view of the ball.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: white; border: 2px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Counter-Balance (CB) Configuration<\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">Two models &#8211; the Ally Blue H CB and the Ally Blue Onset CB &#8211; are available in a counter-balanced configuration. Counter-balancing involves using a heavier grip (here, the PING SuperStroke 1.0 at 17 inches in length) combined with a longer shaft to shift the balance point further up the club.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">The effect is a reduction in the influence of the hands and wrists during the stroke, which for many golfers produces a smoother, more pendulum-like motion and a more consistent tempo.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">The CB option is particularly beneficial for players who feel they have too much &#8220;handsy&#8221; movement or who suffer from the yips at a minor level.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: white; border: 2px solid #e0e0e0; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">PING SuperStroke 2.0 Pistol Tour Grip<\/h4>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">The standard grip for most of the Scottsdale TEC range is the PING SuperStroke 2.0 Pistol Tour. SuperStroke grips are a favourite on Tour precisely because their non-tapered design encourages an even grip pressure in both hands, reducing the wrist action that causes inconsistency.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">The pistol shape provides a natural reference point for hand placement, making it easier to replicate a consistent setup from putt to putt.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 0;\">The 2.0 designation refers to the circumference &#8211; a medium-thickness option that suits most hand sizes and grip preferences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- ===== STROKE FITTING SECTION ===== --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"stroke-fitting\" style=\"color: #398100; font-size: 2em; border-bottom: 3px solid #398100; padding-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 50px;\">Fit for Stroke: Why Torque Matching Matters<\/h2>\n<p>One of the most important innovations in the Scottsdale TEC range is PING&#8217;s explicit commitment to matching each model&#8217;s hosel to the golfer&#8217;s natural stroke arc. This is not a new concept in putter fitting &#8211; it has been a fundamental principle for decades &#8211; but the Scottsdale TEC is one of the few ranges at this price point where all three primary arc types are covered with dedicated, purpose-built hosels rather than approximate solutions.<\/p>\n<p>The underlying physics is relatively straightforward. During a putting stroke, the putter head naturally rotates around a point near the hands. The degree to which the face opens and closes during this rotation depends on where the hosel is placed relative to the centre of the face.<\/p>\n<p>If the hosel is too far from the face&#8217;s natural rotation point (creating high &#8220;toe hang&#8221;), the face will want to rotate more, which suits a golfer with a pronounced arc. Conversely, a face-balanced putter (zero or near-zero toe hang) resists rotation and suits a golfer with a straight-through stroke. Fitting the hosel to the stroke ensures the putter works with your natural motion rather than against it, reducing torque and improving direction consistency.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #f0f7ff; border-left: 5px solid #398100; padding: 20px; margin: 25px 0; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"><span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\"><strong>How to Identify Your Stroke Type:<\/strong> Not sure whether your stroke is straight, a slight arc, or a strong arc?<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Straight Arc:<\/strong> The putter moves almost directly back and through on the target line, with minimal face rotation. Common in players who use a more mechanical, shoulder-driven stroke.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\"><strong>Slight Arc:<\/strong> The most common stroke type. The putter moves slightly inside on the backswing and returns to square at impact, with a moderate degree of face rotation. Most recreational golfers fall into this category.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\"><strong>Strong Arc:<\/strong> The putter has a pronounced inside-to-square-to-inside path with significant face rotation.

A high-MOI mallet designed specifically for golfers with a straight putting stroke, it features a 360g head weight and a full-shaft offset, double-bend hosel that provides a clean, square look at address.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gso-widget-69d63c50a0e6c\" class=\"gso-widget-outer\">Loading widget...<\/div><script>loadGSOproduct(33554, 'gso-widget-69d63c50a0e6c');<\/script>\n<p>The multi-material construction &#8211; milled aluminium body over a 304 stainless steel soleplate &#8211; delivers exceptional stability and a premium finish that rivals putters costing considerably more.<\/p>\n<p>The Haydens &#8216; double-bend hosel is engineered to bring the putter close to face-balanced, meaning the face resists rotation throughout the stroke. For a golfer with a straight-through motion, this means the putter naturally works in harmony with the stroke rather than fighting it. The 360g head weight sits in a sweet spot for most standard-length configurations &#8211; heavy enough to provide a confident, pendulum-like feel without becoming unwieldy.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 25px 0;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Specifications &#8211; Hayden<\/h4>\n<ul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0; line-height: 2;\">\n<li><strong>Putter Type:<\/strong> Mallet<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hosel:<\/strong> Double Bend<\/li>\n<li><strong>Face:<\/strong> One-Piece PEBAX Insert<\/li>\n<li><strong>Head Weight:<\/strong> 360g<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stroke Type:<\/strong> Straight Arc<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lie Angle:<\/strong> 20 degrees<\/li>\n<li><strong>Loft:<\/strong> 3 degrees<\/li>\n<li><strong>Offset:<\/strong> Full Shaft<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shaft:<\/strong> Matte Black Stepless Steel<\/li>\n<li><strong>Grip:<\/strong> PING SuperStroke 2.0 Pistol Tour<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr; gap: 15px; margin: 25px 0;\">\n<div style=\"background: #e8f5e9; border: 2px solid #398100; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Strengths<\/h4>\n<ul style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.8;\">\n<li><strong>Face-balanced design<\/strong> works perfectly with straight arc strokes<\/li>\n<li><strong>High-MOI mallet shape<\/strong> delivers exceptional forgiveness on off-centre hits<\/li>\n<li><strong>360g head weight<\/strong> offers a confident, pendulum feel<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eye-Q alignment<\/strong> makes aiming significantly easier at the address<\/li>\n<li><strong>PEBAX insert<\/strong> provides outstanding feel and distance control<\/li>\n<li><strong>Premium finish<\/strong> &#8211; the matte aluminium and stainless steel soleplate look exceptional<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #fff3e0; border: 2px solid #dc4332; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #dc4332; margin-top: 0;\">Considerations<\/h4>\n<ul style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.8;\">\n<li><strong>Mallet-only range<\/strong> &#8211; golfers who prefer a blade will need to look elsewhere<\/li>\n<li><strong>No CB option<\/strong> on the Hayden specifically (the Ally Blue offers CB)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Premium price<\/strong> at \u00a3349 &#8211; this is considered an investment<\/li>\n<li><strong>Straight arc specific<\/strong> &#8211; not the right choice for those with a pronounced arc stroke<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Who Should Buy the Hayden?<\/strong> Golfers with a straight or near-straight putting stroke who want a high-MOI mallet with exceptional feel and a clean, uncluttered look at address.

The onset hosel places the shaft behind the top rail and near the centre line of the head, which provides a completely unobstructed, full-face view of the ball at address. If you have ever felt that a conventional hosel position partly obscures your line or creates visual clutter at setup, the Ally Blue Onset is designed to eliminate that entirely.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gso-widget-69d63c50a0e8e\" class=\"gso-widget-outer\">Loading widget...<\/div><script>loadGSOproduct(33555, 'gso-widget-69d63c50a0e8e');<\/script>\n<p>Engineered for a straight stroke type, the 370g head&#8217;s centre of gravity is positioned behind the shaft axis. This means the putter is effectively &#8220;pulled&#8221; through the stroke by the head&#8217;s mass, creating an inherently stable motion that reduces the temptation to steer or manipulate the putter face. Combined with the Eye-Q alignment dot and line, this is one of the most aimed-at-the-target, start-on-line putter configurations available in 2025.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 25px 0;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Specifications &#8211; Ally Blue Onset<\/h4>\n<ul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0; line-height: 2;\">\n<li><strong>Putter Type:<\/strong> Mallet<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hosel:<\/strong> Onset<\/li>\n<li><strong>Face:<\/strong> One-Piece PEBAX Insert<\/li>\n<li><strong>Head Weight:<\/strong> 370g<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stroke Type:<\/strong> Straight Arc<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lie Angle:<\/strong> 20 degrees<\/li>\n<li><strong>Loft:<\/strong> 3 degrees<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shaft:<\/strong> Matte Black Stepless Steel (Onset)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Grip:<\/strong> PING SuperStroke 2.0 Pistol Tour<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr; gap: 15px; margin: 25px 0;\">\n<div style=\"background: #e8f5e9; border: 2px solid #398100; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Strengths<\/h4>\n<ul style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.8;\">\n<li><strong>Onset hosel<\/strong> provides a completely unobstructed ball view<\/li>\n<li><strong>370g head<\/strong> offers a planted, stable feel<\/li>\n<li><strong>CG behind the shaft axis<\/strong> creates natural stroke stability<\/li>\n<li><strong>Outstanding alignment<\/strong> through Eye-Q technology and onset position<\/li>\n<li><strong>PEBAX insert<\/strong> delivers a soft, responsive feel across the face<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #fff3e0; border: 2px solid #dc4332; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #dc4332; margin-top: 0;\">Considerations<\/h4>\n<ul style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.8;\">\n<li><strong>The onset hosel<\/strong> may look unusual at first for players used to conventional hosels<\/li>\n<li><strong>Straight arc specific<\/strong> &#8211; not suited to slight or strong arc strokes<\/li>\n<li><strong>No CB configuration<\/strong> in this specific model (see Ally Blue Onset CB below)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Who Should Buy the Ally Blue Onset?<\/strong> Straight arc golfers who have struggled with aim or who feel that conventional hosel positions visually interfere with their setup.

Counter-balancing the onset hosel model takes what is already one of the most alignment-friendly putters in the range and makes it even more forgiving of hand and wrist movement during the stroke. The 370g head and multi-material construction ensure high forgiveness, and the combination of the onset&#8217;s clear sightline with the CB&#8217;s quieter hands effect makes this the most stable and easy-to-aim model in the Scottsdale TEC range.<\/p>\n<div id=\"gso-widget-69d63c50a0eac\" class=\"gso-widget-outer\">Loading widget...<\/div><script>loadGSOproduct(33560, 'gso-widget-69d63c50a0eac');<\/script>\n<p>The CB configuration uses the PING SuperStroke 1.0 at 17 inches rather than the standard Pistol Tour grip, and the shaft is correspondingly longer to accommodate the extended setup. The balance point shifts noticeably higher up the club compared to the standard Ally Blue Onset, and even a brief trial putt reveals just how much calmer and more pendulum-like the stroke sensation becomes. For golfers who feel that their hands &#8220;take over&#8221; during pressure putts, this model is specifically designed to reduce that tendency.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #f8f9fa; padding: 20px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 25px 0;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Specifications &#8211; Ally Blue Onset CB<\/h4>\n<ul style=\"list-style: none; padding: 0; line-height: 2;\">\n<li><strong>Putter Type:<\/strong> Mallet<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hosel:<\/strong> Onset (Counter-Balanced)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Face:<\/strong> One-Piece PEBAX Insert<\/li>\n<li><strong>Head Weight:<\/strong> 370g<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stroke Type:<\/strong> Straight Arc<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lie Angle:<\/strong> 20 degrees<\/li>\n<li><strong>Loft:<\/strong> 3 degrees<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shaft:<\/strong> Matte Black Stepless Steel (Onset)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Grip:<\/strong> PING SuperStroke 1.0 (17 inch)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: grid; grid-template-columns: 1fr 1fr; gap: 15px; margin: 25px 0;\">\n<div style=\"background: #e8f5e9; border: 2px solid #398100; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100; margin-top: 0;\">Strengths<\/h4>\n<ul style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.8;\">\n<li><strong>Counter-balance<\/strong> quiets hand and wrist action for a smoother stroke<\/li>\n<li><strong>Onset hosel<\/strong> provides the same unobstructed ball view as the standard model<\/li>\n<li><strong>Maximum stability<\/strong> in the range for straight arc players<\/li>\n<li><strong>Excellent for players<\/strong> with minor tempo inconsistencies or pressure-putting concerns<\/li>\n<li><strong>Full Eye-Q alignment<\/strong> and PEBAX insert features retained<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: #fff3e0; border: 2px solid #dc4332; border-radius: 8px; padding: 20px;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: #dc4332; margin-top: 0;\">Considerations<\/h4>\n<ul style=\"margin: 0; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.8;\">\n<li><strong>Longer shaft and heavier grip<\/strong> require an adjustment period for those new to CB putters<\/li>\n<li><strong>Not ideal<\/strong> for players who prefer a very active, feel-based putting stroke<\/li>\n<li><strong>Straight arc only<\/strong> &#8211; will not suit players with arc-based strokes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Who Should Buy the Ally Blue Onset CB?<\/strong> Straight arc players who want the maximum level of stability and hand-quieting available in the range.

Eye-Q alignment, the onset hosel design, and the multi-material mallet construction all represent concepts that Tour players and PING&#8217;s Putting Lab researchers specifically requested or developed together.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">What is Eye-Q alignment technology, and how does it work?<\/h4>\n<div style=\"background: #f0f7ff; border-left: 5px solid #398100; padding: 20px; margin: 25px 0; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"><strong>Eye-Q is PING&#8217;s alignment system based on &#8220;Quiet Eye&#8221; sports vision research.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\">A small dot on the top rail acts as a primary focal point. The eyes settle on this dot, which then aligns with a long line running towards the back of the putter. Research into sports performance shows that golfers who achieve a stable, focused gaze (a &#8220;quiet eye&#8221;) in the moments before initiating a movement tend to produce more accurate results. By giving the eye one clear, unambiguous reference point, PING aims to reduce visual clutter and encourage a more stable pre-stroke routine. The combination of the dot and line also makes the alignment direction much clearer than either a single line or a single dot.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">What is the difference between the Ally Blue Onset and the Hayden for straight arc golfers?<\/h4>\n<div style=\"background: #f0f7ff; border-left: 5px solid #398100; padding: 20px; margin: 25px 0; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"><strong>Both are designed for straight arc strokes, but they differ in hosel design, head weight, and ball visibility.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\">The Hayden (360g, double-bend hosel) is the more conventional option &#8211; a clean, square mallet with a traditional setup view. The Ally Blue Onset (370g, onset hosel) places the shaft behind the top rail for a completely unobstructed view of the ball at address. The Onset is the better choice for golfers who have struggled with aim or who feel that the hosel position distracts them at setup. The Hayden suits players who are comfortable with a conventional mallet setup and simply want premium performance without the onset of adaptation period.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">Is counter-balancing right for me?<\/h4>\n<div style=\"background: #f0f7ff; border-left: 5px solid #398100; padding: 20px; margin: 25px 0; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"><strong>Counter-balancing is best suited to players whose hands or wrists are overly active during the stroke.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\">If your tempo varies significantly between short and long putts, if you feel a tendency to &#8220;stab&#8221; at short putts, or if you have experimented with longer putters in the past, CB is worth considering. The caveat is that CB putters have a distinctly different feel to standard-length configurations &#8211; the putter feels heavier overall, and some golfers find the extended setup restricts their natural hand positioning. If possible, we strongly recommend trying a CB model before purchasing. Call our team on 0800 3681097, and we can help you assess whether CB is right for your game.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">Are the Ping Scottsdale TEC putters legal for tournament play?<\/h4>\n<div style=\"background: #f0f7ff; border-left: 5px solid #398100; padding: 20px; margin: 25px 0; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"><strong>Yes, all Ping Scottsdale TEC putters conform to the rules of golf as set out by The R&amp;A and the USGA.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\">All equipment sold by The Golf Shop Online is a genuine, manufacturer-warranted product from an authorised retailer. The Scottsdale TEC range has been designed and engineered within the equipment specification guidelines set by <a style=\"color: #398100; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.randa.org\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The R&amp;A<\/a>, the governing body for golf outside the United States and Mexico, and is fully approved for competitive play at all amateur and professional levels.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">How does the PEBAX insert compare to steel or aluminium putter faces?<\/h4>\n<div style=\"background: #f0f7ff; border-left: 5px solid #398100; padding: 20px; margin: 25px 0; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"><strong>PEBAX inserts are widely regarded as offering the best combination of feel and distance control in modern putter design.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\">A solid steel or milled aluminium face tends to produce a firmer, more &#8220;clicky&#8221; sensation at impact, which some golfers enjoy but which can make distance control less forgiving on off-centre hits. A PEBAX insert absorbs and returns energy more consistently across the face, which means putts struck slightly above or below centre will still roll at a more predictable speed. The feel is distinctly softer and more &#8220;cushioned&#8221; than steel, without the distance-robbing deadness of softer polymer inserts. For most golfers, particularly those who have struggled with distance control, PEBAX represents a meaningful upgrade.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">Do all Ping Scottsdale TEC putters come with a headcover?<\/h4>\n<div style=\"background: #f0f7ff; border-left: 5px solid #398100; padding: 20px; margin: 25px 0; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"><strong>Yes, all PING Scottsdale TEC putters are supplied with a PING putter headcover.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\">Given the premium matte aluminium body and stainless steel soleplate, keeping the headcover on when the putter is in your bag is well worthwhile &#8211; the aluminium can show marks from contact with other clubs. The headcover included is a standard PING design that fits the Scottsdale TEC head shapes securely.

The best conventional setup option in the range, with exceptional feel and forgiveness.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">Ally Blue Onset<\/h4>\n<p>The standout model for straight arc players who prioritise alignment. The onset hosel is genuinely impressive in how much clearer it makes the setup, and the 370g head weight gives a planted, confident feel.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">Ally Blue Onset CB<\/h4>\n<p>The maximum stability option in the range. An ideal choice for players who want the alignment clarity of the onset design combined with a smoother, hands-quieted stroke.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">Ally Blue H<\/h4>\n<p>The most broadly applicable model in the collection. If you have a slight arc stroke and want a premium mallet upgrade, start here. The plumber&#8217;s neck hosel and 370g head are an excellent combination.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">Ally Blue H CB<\/h4>\n<p>An excellent evolution of the Ally Blue H for players seeking extra tempo and stroke consistency. The CB effect is tangible from the first putt and well worth the adaptation period.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">Ketsch Onset<\/h4>\n<p>The onset hosel in a rounded mallet head &#8211; a compelling combination for slight arc players who prefer the Ketsch shape. The lighter 350g head weight offers a livelier, more feedback-rich alternative to the 370g Ally Blue models.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"color: #398100;\">Ketsch 4<\/h4>\n<p>A genuinely important model for strong arc players who have struggled to find a mallet that works with their stroke. The slant neck hosel and 3\/4 shaft offset are correctly engineered for a rotating motion, while the Ketsch head shape still provides substantial forgiveness.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #f0f7ff; border-left: 5px solid #398100; padding: 20px; margin: 25px 0; border-radius: 5px;\">\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 15px;\"><strong>The Bottom Line:<\/strong> The Ping Scottsdale TEC putters are one of the most thoughtfully constructed premium mallet families of 2025. PING has avoided the trap of creating a &#8220;one size fits most&#8221; putter range and instead built seven models that are genuinely different from one another in functionally important ways. The Eye-Q alignment system is one of the most intuitive and effective alignment aids we have seen in a mainstream putter range, and the PEBAX insert delivers a feel quality that justifies the \u00a3349 price point on its own.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0;\"><span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">Our overall pick for most golfers is the\u00a0<strong>Ally Blue H<\/strong> for its excellent stroke matching for the most common arc type, but every model in this range is well worth serious consideration if it is correctly fitted to your stroke.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background: linear-gradient(135deg, #398100 0%, #7fba23 100%); padding: 25px; border-radius: 8px; margin: 30px 0; text-align: center;\">\n<h4 style=\"color: white; margin-top: 0; font-size: 1.2em;\">Shop the Full Ping Scottsdale TEC Putters<\/h4>\n<p style=\"color: white; margin-bottom: 20px;\">All 7 models available now at \u00a3349 each.
