O fickle putting green, the manicured stage upon which are played scenes of exquisite triumph and stygian despair. You may think you’re comfortable with your reliable old putter, but think back to the last time you missed a putt by two inches and had to buy drinks all night for those jerks from Accounting. Maybe, just maybe, a better putter could have made the difference between a $275 bar bill and an evening of free single-malt scotch for you and your teammates.

Wonder no more. The Nike Blue Chip OZ Mallet Putter incorporates all kinds of freaky space-age curves and materials and stuff, advancing mankind’s eternal quest for the error-free putter as only the Swoosh Army can. The 6061 aluminum insert enhances feel like crazy, and why wouldn’t it? It’s 65% lighter and 73% softer than steel, offering the kind of forgiveness you can usually only get by whispering through a screen to your priest. Thanks to some wacky feature called “dual-density weighting,” 30% of the clubhead mass slides rearward when in motion, reducing skidding at impact and sending the ball on a truer path. And if you prefer to play your golf on a highway in the middle of the night, the reflective blue panel on the club face will make you visible to motorists.

Arm yourself with the Nike Blue Chip OZ and put some game in your short game. And if you still wind up footing the bill for the drunkards in Accounting, well, at least you’ll know the problem is you.
