Golf putter
A golf putter is disclosed having a head having a forward face, a back face, a top surface, and a bottom surface, the top surface defining a leading edge of the head and a trailing edge of the head. A back flange extends rearward from the back face of the head. In an example, a plurality of angled alignment lines are formed in the top surface of the head. In an example, a first straight alignment line is formed in the top surface of the head, the straight alignment line is centered between the plurality of angled alignment lines. In an example, a second straight alignment line is aligned with the first straight alignment line. In an example, a plurality of grooves are formed in the forward face of the head.
