2010 Ping Anser 2 Putter Revealed!
Lot’s of new products are scheduled to be released by Ping including a 14 new putter models under the scottsdale name. One of our content partners Toshi of the popular Japanese blog Anserfreak was recently able to visit the Ping Japan headquarters and warehouse to see first hand what was in the pipeline.
The new Anser 2 model features a durable blackish grey finish from top viewing angles while the sole has a dark mirror finish. The new insert is made of a Thermoplastic Elastomer and we were told that it feels softer yet has a surprising and more apparent impact sound.
We are not sure about the differences between the U.S market models and the Japan market models yet but based on the early reports it appears Japan is only reporting on the blackish grey finished versions while the U.S has the traditional silver finish in their marketing aids.
We do however expect the entire U.S line up to be available in Japan along with some unique Japan Only models that of course TourSpecGolf will carry.
Ping today held their annual sales meeting showing off official images of the entire U.S Scottsdale putter line up and we will have more info in pictures in the coming weeks. For now enjoy the gallery images below posted on their twitter page from the event.
New Products include the Ping K-15 series, Ping “Faith” women’s series, Ping S56 Irons and the 2010 Scottsdale Putter line…Enjoy!

I personally prefer the darker finish for my putters. It seems easier on the eye. Sometimes i find the Silver/Satin to be distracting and I would never think of using a chrome finish putter.
Your Message Just spent 3 days trying to decide between the mp 53’s and the AP2’s and for fitting purposes the pro had me hit a S56 7 iron and absolutely loved it. Ended up ordering 3-pw with DG x100 shafts. Added a 52 and 56 tour S as well, I can’t wait for these to come in!!
i prefer the simple type putter like the anser 2 and when it makes contact with the ball it feels great.
