A golf club, and particularly a putter, is provided with an alignment line which extends along a length of the putter shaft and a length of the putter head. The alignment line is disposed in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the shaft and parallel to the face of the putter head and allows a golfer to align the face of the club perpendicular to an imaginary line along which a golf ball is to be driven. The body of the putter head is a skeletal frame and is covered with a plastic coating to fill up the openings in the body and provide a flat striking surface.
