Best SIK Golf Putters

Best SIK Golf Putters

Putters are becoming almost as technologically advanced as the best golf drivers and irons on the market, with one brand at the forefront of this innovation being SIK Golf, makers of some of the best putters on the market. 

Trusted by some of the top players in the game, including 2020 US Open Champion Bryson DeChambeau, SIK pioneered its unique Descending Loft Technology. According to SIK, this patented clubface design is said to launch the ball at a more consistent angle regardless of attack angle or the amount of shaft lean presented to the ball at impact. This helps players control their distances by delivering a truer roll on the green. 

The face of each putter is divided into four horizontal sections - starting at 4º at the top and moving down in one-degree increments to 1º at the bottom of the club. The face design has also been implemented by Cobra in some of its putters like the King 3D Printed Agera, one of the most forgiving putters ever made. 

SIK is a firm believer in the custom-fitting process and each model has the option to interchange different head and neck capabilities to properly fit a golfer's stroke or preferences in looks. SIK is also one of the leading brands within the Armlock method space, as demonstrated to great effect down the years by DeChambeau. 

From blade putters to mallet putters, SIK produces a wide range of putter heads suitable for all kinds of players.

You may wonder what the DW stands for in DW 2.0 C-Series. Well, it stands for ‘double wide’, as the head is essentially the width of two Anser-style blade heads. This helps frame the golf ball quite beautifully at address, with a bright sightline really standing out and helping with alignment on the black finish option. 

Moving to the face of the club, the Descending Loft Technology (DLT) design helps to deliver consistent distance control. It does this by adding the loft back higher on the face to get the ball rolling quicker. Essentially, if you hit it lower on the face, you naturally add loft to the putter, so DLT corrects the launch the other way.

Overall the SIK DW 2.0 C-Series is an impressive all-round performer and, because of its impressive consistency and performance, it earned a worthy spot in our 2022 Editor's Choice awards.

Like the rest of the SIK range, the Flo C-Series features DLC and, in our testing, no matter how far we moved our hands behind or ahead of the ball, the ball rolled out nicely. 

The SIK Flo C-Series has a shape many of you will recognize with a leading edge that flows out into a high MOI style head. The long alignment line works well and we liked the fact that it continues up the back of the leading edge so that, whatever your hand or eye position, the line appears continuous, although it would be good to see it continue through the leading edge.

It may not be most aesthetically pleasing, but the wide trailing edge design does give it a longer site line and increases the MOI a little. The real tech is in the face though and it certainly performs like a premium putter.

Another worthy addition to this best blade putters guide comes from SIK and the Pro C putter. Used by Bryson DeChambeau, it is arguably one of the most recognizable putters in the range, with the C putter one of the best blade putters on the market.

At address, it won’t blow you away visually, with the finish looking slightly unfinished, and quite dull. However, one positive of this is that you won't get any unwanted glare from the sun and the shape is very pleasing to the eye, with the rounded corners and clean lines finishing off what is a classic, Anser-style putter.

Rolling superbly along the ground, we were mind-blown by the fitting process, in particular the level of detail and the intricacies of what goes into getting the perfectly designed putter for you. Hint, there’s way more to think about than you realise.

With Bryson DeChambeau as the poster boy of armlock putters, you would expect his chosen manufacturer, SIK Golf, to have the widest range and you would not be disappointed. As well as the C-Series face-balanced Flo mallet and DW wide blade, they also have the Pro blade that Bryson uses on tour. 

In common with the other models, it is made from stainless steel with a milled face that uses Descending Loft Technology to vary the loft on the face to create the right roll however you deliver it. 

The standard face varies from 4 to 7 degrees vertically upwards from the sole to the top line, and the standard shaft is 41 inches, but as one of the leaders in this field, there are multiple options to customize your SIK Golf armlock putter on their website.

Billed as a premium putter, the SIK Standard DW certainly lives up to its hype. It comes in two finishes (silky silver or matte black) and its sleek blade aesthetic delivers confidence as you stand over the ball. 

SIK's patented Descending Loft Technology is present in the face of this club. This helps golfers, who commonly lean the putter forward or backward in their stroke, deliver a clean impact with the ball. As a result, it helps players hit more shots on target, getting the ball to where they need it on the green, making it one of the best putters for consistency. 

The putter delivers a good feel on the ball and, during testing, we found it easy to gauge distances and shot accuracy. The grip was tacky and substantial in our hands, making it great for those who like a thick putting grip. Plus, it features a slanted hosel and an alignment tool on the back of the clubhead, which was a handy addition that helped us get the ball closer to the hole.

Armlock putters are becoming more and more prominent in the world of golf, with many players, who struggle to keep their club head steady through impact, opting to use these clubs as a means to improve their accuracy.

While this putter does come at a pretty high price point, what you'll be getting here is a custom-built club that features a very long shaft which will help you stabilise your putting stroke. 

This combines with SIK's Descending Loft Technology on the clubface to deliver a very smooth and straight roll on the golf ball, helping players strike much more consistent putts. 

How we test SIK Putters

When it comes to product testing, our reviews and buyers' guides are built upon a rigorous testing procedure as well as the knowledge and experience of the test team. The putter section is headed up by Joel Tadman and Martin Hopley, one of the foremost UK equipment reviewers with over 20 years of experience. Other members of the Golf Monthly team contribute to the putter tests as well and all writers are able to efficiently test the vast majority of the biggest product releases and convey the pros and cons eloquently.

Getting into specifics, we test the putters outdoors on real greens with premium golf balls to get a thorough understanding of design features, feel, sound and looks. Ultimately, we aim to be as insightful and honest as possible in our reviews so it is important to acknowledge that no manufacturer can buy a good review. This is because our team tells it how it is. 

Our Technical Editor Joel Tadman has also recently been looking into some of the benefits and drawbacks of armlock putters.

What to consider when buying a SIK putter?

The putter is perhaps the most important club in your bag. It is ultimately the club that you want to use the least. But on a bad day could be the club you use the most. Getting the right putter for your golf game can go a long way to ensuring you cut out those costly three-putts on the green. For that reason, I've put together a list of important considerations you need to keep in mind when purchasing your next golf putter. 

1. Type (Blade/Mallet/High MOI)

Depending on your skills, confidence and preference, the type of putter you use can be a hinderance or a game changer. As the general rule goes, more experienced golfers are likely better off using a bladed putter, simply because they are less forgiving than mallet or high MOI options. But that doesn't mean the latter are worse off or won't help you drain putts from 30-yards out. In fact many Tour professionals use high MOI and mallet putters. Ultimately it comes down to how you swing the putter and the smoothness of your stroke. These putters offer greater control and forgiveness on off-centre shots. For that reason, they are an excellent choice for any player, but particularly those with higher handicaps. 

2. Size 

The size of your putter can seriously affect how you swing through the golf ball. If a putter is too long for you, then you'll find yourself hitting your putts fat, adding unwanted spin on the ball and preventing it from rolling true. Conversely, if your putter is too long, you may top the ball and send it flying in the wrong direction. My best advice, when buying any new club for that matter, is to test it extensively before you buy it. 

3. Feel

Different putters come with different club faces that will, in turn, deliver a different feel on the golf ball. Depending on what you're looking for, whether thats a dull sound or an aluminium touch, feel is an important factor to consider when buying a putter. It's also worth noting the loft of the clubface. SIK's putters are designed to deliver true rolls with any swing type, thanks to their patented Loft Technology, which makes SIK a great brand to consider if you're struggling to put a smooth roll on the golf ball. 

4. Alignment tools

It's also worth thinking about the alignment tools the putter offers. While some golfers may not prefer to have any aiming guides on the back of their putters, most players can seriously benefit from having an aiming line on the back of their putter which can also help to improve your focus on the ball and help you strike through the shot more square. 

5. Price 

Our final tip is to think about price because while there are some premium designs out there, there are also some models which offer excellent value, as the selections above show. Sometimes less experienced players should steer clear of the more expensive offerings currently on the market which may actually not be very forgiving and may not be suitable for your swing style.

But if you're still stuck on what putter to choose, why not take a look at what some different brands have to offer and check out our best TaylorMade putters buying guide or our best Scotty Cameron putters guide for more information on the types of clubs different manufacturers can offer.
