Acer CB3 Putter
Meticulously designed using the latest CAD software, the concept was to reverse engineered the putter’s shape. After a recent rules change by the USGA, the putter’s face no longer needs to be greater than the front-to-back dimension. Even higher handicapped golfers do not strike the ball very far from the center of the putter’s face by a great amount. By reducing the material used in the face and redistributing the weight in the rear corners, the result is a putter that will greatly reduce twisting over a conventional shaped design. Even though the face measures 68mm (2 2/3”), it is more than ample length not to appear intimidating at address. Just like the head of a hammer is not much larger than the head of a nail, by placing more weight away from the striking surface creates an extremely balanced putter.
The head is precision cast from stainless steel and features a soft, black aluminum insert. Requires a curved putter shaft that will result into a face balanced finished product.
As a follow up on a recent article on putter MOI (Moment of Inertia-see below), the July 2008 Golf Magazine highlighted an article explaining putter MOI with the assistance of Hot Stix Golf. Golf Magazine measured a few of the highest MOI putters on the market and showed the distance loss on shots hit ¾” off-center on the heel and toe compared to the putting distance of a center impact. In the article Golf Magazine publishes the MOI of the various putters in the study. Compare those models and their respective values to several of the Hireko models offers. Here’s the results: 
Performance flat sticks that beat the OEM’s. And check out the price comparison…no match there either.
Putter MOI is a way of defining forgiveness of a particular model (the higher the number providing the greater accuracy). It is a function of the clubhead size, weight and weight distribution. Remember, the typical and most popular putters today are in the 4000-4500g-cm2 range.
What does all this mean? Hireko’s creed is “Cutting Edge Custom Golf Clubs - Factory Direct!” The MOI numbers and prices of the Acer CB Putters undeniably prove this. Give the Acer CB Series Putters a spin and spend your savings on another 18
