BALTIMORE, Md. -- The newly redesigned 9740 and 9750 putters from STX resemble the company's highly popular 97 Series, but possess contemporary lines, different finishes and new shafts and grips.

"Both of these models have been extremely successful at retail. We attribute that to its appearance, performance and entry-level price point," said STX Director of Golf Steve Henneman. "These putters have been a mainstay in our line-up and it was necessary they be updated."

The 9740 model is a traditionally styled blade that is machined from 17-4 stainless steel, weighs 345 grams and incorporates a patented elastomer fixed face insert. All three STX face inserts are available in the 9740: the soft black insert, the medium-resilient red insert and firmer green insert.

This heel-shafted putter has heel-toe weighting, a plumber's neck hosel and a stepless KBS shaft. It comes in lengths of 34 and 35 inches, and features a custom Golf Pride V-Rad grip. The 9740 putters carry a suggested retail of $149 and include a custom STX collectable head cover.

The 9750 model, like its originator, is a heel-toe weighted putter, but this new version includes a unique flare-neck hosel and weighs in at 340 grams. It too is machined from top-quality 17-4 stainless steel and is offered with all three STX face inserts.

The classically designed 9750 blade-styled head with a fine satin finish incorporates a stepless KBS shaft for a clean and modern appearance, and comes in lengths of 34 and 35 inches. A custom Golf Pride V-Rad golf grip with a semi-pistol shape adds touch and consistency with its texture and tackiness. The 9750 putter also retails for $149 and comes with a custom STX collectable head cover.
