Any suggestions for how to build a broomstick putter? I can’t find a suitable head. And can I bend a double bend shaft from 72 to 79*?

    Hireko has some hosels that you can use. There is another company too, that makes hosels you can stick into a 90 degree bore in a head.

    And yes, you probably can bend the shaft. I have done it.

    Nat I have bent a double bend shaft by simply heating it with a torch at the place you want to
    bend. I used a vice and two heavy duty bolts that I had secured in the vice about 2-3 inches apart, one to secure the shaft and the other to bend against. Once you've heated the spot where you want the bend to red hot, the shaft bends easily against one of the bolts. Wear mitts, of course. You might try it with a scrap piece of shaft first to
    get a feel for it. Also, it will discolor the shaft at the point of the bend.

      Just find a fairly heavy head that is center shafted and buy a long ski pole shaft.

          You can't hardly get the shafts anywhere. None of the big companies are selling them. Jeff Summit at Hireko told me they are not being made. There is a guy in Arizona who sells them on eBay. Maybe he saw the writing on the wall and stocked up.

            Yeah you can find some long shafts on ebay.

            You'll need to learn to anchor against your chest without anchoring against your chest like Langer and McCarron. 😉

            I can extend and iron shaft, I really can’t find a suitable head to use

            Have a 44", Taylormade Ghost Putter in mint condition. Don't know if that is what you are looking for or not.
