A golf putter is disclosed having a hosel body, including a hosel arm extending over a top surface of a putter head from a hosel connector region of the top surface, which is above a striking area, the striking area having portions that may or may not include a "sweet spot" of the club, in vertical elevation and a hosel having a shaft-receiving aperture and an axis extending obliquely to the hosel arm, at which the hosel arm terminates. The hosel arm extends towards one of two lateral extremities on opposite sites of the hosel connector region. The hosel arm suspends the putter head from the hosel connector region above its striking area in vertical elevation, transferring a load to the hosel connector region.
