More Info on TaylorMade Rossa Corza Ghost Putter
TaylorMade's goal with Ghost was simple: Design a putter that's easier to aim than any other. That's where the white head comes in. Ghost's "golf-ball white" color complements the white color of the ball, and also stands out easily and beautifully against green grass so you don't have to strain to see the topline. That takes the strain off your eyes and promotes a calm and confident state of mind, according to an expert in the field of color perception, who TaylorMade consulted during the development of Ghost. The three black lines on the crown lend further alignment support. The two outer lines are spaced as far apart as the width of a golf ball. Position the ball between those lines when you address your putt and you'll be amazed at how easy it is to tell where the face is aiming. The elevated crown merges seamlessly with the top of the putterface, making the topline extremely easy to see.
Alignment Aids
The circular hole at the rear of the putterhead works in uni on with the three black lines on the crown and the golf ball to create a vivid secondary alignment aid that gives you complete assurance that your aim is true.
AGSI+ Insert
Rossa's renowned AGSI+ (Anti-skid Groove System Insert) promotes forwardspin for a smooth roll, while its Titallium construction delivers soft and satisfying feel at impact.
Putters come in all shapes and styles these days, from minimalist blades to high-MOI potato mashers, but nearly all of them have either a metallic or darkened finish. But TaylorMade is set to release one of the most eye-catching putters in recent memory and that's the whole point of the Rossa Corza Ghost.
The first thing that every golfer is going to notice about the putter is that it's white. Really white, with three sight lines on the crown and a hole in the back.
The goal of the Corza Ghost was to make it the easiest putter ever to aim. The white color stands out in sharp contrast against the greens' grass, so the topline and leading edge are easy to focus on. And because all the areas of the Ghost are white, there are no "hot spots" or portions of the putter that draw the golfer's attention away from the leading edge.
TaylorMade intends golfers to use the middle of the three alignment lines to go along the intended path. (TaylorMade R9 Super Tri Driver)The outer two alignment lines are as wide as a golf ball, which can help players "bracket" the ball and trust their aim more.
The hole in the back of the putter is supposed to be a final visual check for your aim.
Aside from all the visual alignment aids, the Ghost features TaylorMade's AGSI+ face insert to soften the feel and help get the ball rolling faster.
The new TaylorMade Rossa Corza Ghost putter will be shown to PGA Tour pros starting next week in Charlotte, and should start appearing in pro shops starting in June .
