Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Flex Putter?
A flexible-shaft putting trainer built by golf professional Anthony Aguilar. The shaft flexes through the stroke so you feel the release, tempo, and impact directly in your hands, feedback a rigid steel shaft does not give you.
How does a flexible shaft actually help my putting?
Because the shaft flexes through the stroke, you feel the difference between a smooth, centered release and a rushed or off-center one instantly. That feedback trains proper release, square impact, and consistent rhythm and timing.
What is the difference between the Trainer and the GAMER?
The Trainer is the original blue-shaft model. The GAMER is the newer white-shaft version, built around the softest metal putter head on the market for an even purer feel at impact.
Can I use the Flex Putter in an actual round, or is it just for practice?
Both the Trainer and the GAMER conform to the USGA Rules of Golf, so either can be used in tournament play, not just on the practice green.
Will practicing with a flexible shaft hurt my stroke with a normal putter?
The training effect goes the other way. The flex teaches proper release and tempo, which carries over when you switch to a standard steel-shaft putter, it builds the correct feel rather than a different stroke pattern.
What does a mis-hit actually feel like compared to a clean strike?
You will feel a distinct vibration through the shaft on an off-center or mis-timed hit, versus a pure, soft impact on a centered strike. That contrast is the core of how the Flex Putter teaches feel.
Is this for beginners, or really for low-handicap players?
It is built for the full range. The Flex Putter exists so all golfers, beginners to the pros, can feel the proper release and roll the ball true, regardless of where you are starting from.
Which tour players actually use the Flex Putter?
Players who have put a Flex Putter in play include 2025 U.S. Open champion J.J. Spaun, world number 1 Nelly Korda, and major champions like Ernie Els, Bryson DeChambeau, and Ian Poulter, among others. See the Players and Testimonials page for the full list.
Do you offer both a blade and a mallet putter head?
Yes, both the Trainer and the GAMER are available in blade and mallet head styles, so you can pick the shape you are most comfortable putting with.
Is there a version for juniors or shorter players?
Yes, there is a Ladies and Juniors Flex Putter available in both the Trainer and GAMER models.
Why does the site say 50 percent of scoring is putting alone?
It is the reasoning behind the product. With putting responsible for roughly half of a round total strokes, a training aid that improves stroke consistency has an outsized effect on your scoring average.

Can I practice with it indoors or on a putting mat?
