The rules of golf state that if two grips are presetn on a putter, they must be circular in cross section. I f I attach this device to my current putter which has a normal flat side grip, will it not make my club illegal fir use in competition play?

One flat side putter grip and one round putter grip would make your putter non-conforming to USGA rules. They ( means both grips) must be round in cross section. So you would have to replace the current grip with a round grip.

The current conversion kit is non-conforming for tournament play. There is a piece included with the kit that will aid you in making it tournament legal.

I currently use a 35" Odyssey SRT, but have always wanted to try a belly. Would this product be a good match to my SRT?

Only you will be able to answer that after you try it. Belly putting does have some advantages for some people as you see in the comments above.
Mid Handicap Golfer: David L.
01/24/2012 10:20 AM
Couldn't agree more with David. The Kit itself will work with just about any putter. We seen some issues with old putters made prior to 1990 but no other issues.

It's to be used if you intend to make it a USGA Tournament Legal putter. Otherwise you don't use it.

The Standard Mode it is adjustable and non conforming. It can, however, be upgraded to the Tournament Mode (USGA rules conforming), by utilizing the taper sleeve (included) and replacing both grips with a long belly putter grip (not included). Instructions for this modification are included.

The black tube that comes with the insert is to be used when installing permanently. It is only used to install a belly length grip which would cover the insert entirely making it a permanent extension.

The swingweight of the putter will technically increase but not to the extent of the traditional belly putter as the overall head weight and shaft weight are much greater.

jim strakes
09/04/2011 5:17 PM
You will have to use a two piece grip. In order to make the Belly Putt conforming you will strip both the paddle grip from your putter and the Belly Putt grip, then you will install the two piece grip with the longer part covering the inserted shaft sleeve and butt cap on the end of the sleeve. Once you install the two piece grip the Belly Putt sleeve is no longer adjustable and will now conform with USGA regulations.
