Steve Strano, Otey Crisman Putters | Episode No. 489

Otey Crisman Putters are golf putting clubs with a notable place in golf history and equipment craftsmanship — both as vintage collectible clubs and as modern hand-built putters inspired by that heritage. On this episode of The Wednesday Match Play Podcast, brought to you by Eden Mill St Andrews, Steve gives an overview of Otey Crisman Putters, sharing how these iconic putters have recorded five wins at Augusta. He walks us through how the putter has evolved over time, discusses headcovers and proper putter maintenance, and explains why hickory shafts remain such an important part of the story. We also talk about how technology has advanced, the role confidence plays when standing over the ball, and why these putters have a "soul." This was a historic conversation and an honor to have Steve on the show. Let's tee it off.
