A golf club of the putter type is formed with a horizontally arranged T-shaped head having an elongated stem and laterally extending arms which terminate in integral enlargements that form weights. The stem and arms of the T-shape have a forward, normally vertically arranged surface which provide a ball impacting surface on the head. The head has a center of mass located a short distance rearwardly of the impacting surface and along the longitudinal, horizontally arranged axis of the stem. A shaft is connected to the head between the center of mass and the impacting surface. The shaft has a short lower portion which is bent forwardly and sidewise relative to the head. Also, the shaft has an upper portion, which is integral with the lower portion that is bent at an acute angle relative to the vertical axis of the head. Markings may be formed on the upper surface of the head for providing sight lines for aiming the stem along a desired direction.
