This is a very important topic to discuss when selecting the right putter, Putter Balance. Many people make the claim when selecting a putter, "just go with what feels good."

The 2015 PGA Championship, will be the 97^th time the tournament is played and the third time it will visit Whistling Straits, Wisconsin. Along with The Masters, US Open and Open Championship, the PGA Championship is one of four major tournaments played throughout the season.

A number of different courses have hosted the event over the years, with many doing so regularly. Whistling Straits also held the PGA Championship in 2004 and 2010. Interestingly, both of those tournaments required a play-off to find the eventual winner. Having only been played at Whistling Straits twice, there is yet to be an American winner of the PGA Championship on the course, with Vijay Singh and Martin Kaymer winning the previous two.

Defending the PGA Championship in 2015, will be Rory McIlroy. Having won the event twice, the world number one will feel confident of becoming the first player since Tiger Woods in 2007, to retain the title. Following his victory at The Masters, Jordan Spieth could become the first American player to win the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits.
