Some golfers say confidence is the No. 1 key to good putting.
But that begs an obvious question:
If you don’t have confidence, how do you get it?
Usually, it comes from out of the blue – say, when the hole gets in the way of a 15-footer that’s headed off the green.
Suddenly, the cup looks as wide as a sumo wrestler’s waistline.
Hey, there’s nothing like seeing a putt drop to boost the spirits.
That kind of confidence, though, tends to be fleeting.
You’ve got it for a few holes, then POOF! It vanishes quicker than you can say “lipped it out.”
It doesn’t last because it’s based on one lucky putt.
So the real question is:
How do you build genuine rock-solid confidence - the kind that holds up on
every length of putt, under pressure, round after round?
Fundamentals you can trust.
And the No. 1 fundamental in putting is…?
No, not your grip.
Nope, not the angle of your arms or the rocking of your shoulders.
Actually, the fundamental skill that will most improve your putting is…
AIMING the putter face PRECISELY down the target line.
Pfft, that's the easy part," you may be thinking. But you'd be wrong. The vast majority of golfers misalign at least some of their putts. This includes the 25-foot uphiller with a 4-foot swing, and the downhill tester that needs to be jusssssst inside the right edge.
Newsflash: There’s a 90% chance you’re not aimed where you think you are on at least some of your putts.
Which means that if you want to make more putts and three-putt less often, you need help.
Even the greatest golfers in the world
are constantly striving to improve alignment
Of course, there are plenty of ways to improve your alignment.
Doing drills. Marking lines on your ball. Trying any of the million training aids on the market.
But none of those actually guarantee that your putter’s face will be lined up dead-solid-perfect…
None of them except BLOODLINE:
THE BLOODLINE T8
Everything you could ask from a putter and more!
CONSISTENT SETUP
ON-THE-MONEY ALIGNMENT
NEXT LEVEL CONFIDENCE
Improved, accurate alignment is Bloodline's most immediate and difference-making performance benefit.
Players also find that addressing the ball and positioning you hands is more repeatable thanks to Bloodline's technology.
And we all know repeatability equals consistency.
The putter’s stability relieves tension in the hands and arms, too, which makes for a smooth, effortless, free-flowing stroke that gives your read the best chance to drop in the hole.
YOUR SECRET WEAPON WILL MAKE THE LINE ON THE BALL OBSOLETE...
Read the green and pick your line, just like always.
After that, it couldn't be any easier:
Place the putter head behind your ball, facing the hole.
Use the framing sight-lines to point the face directly on your line.
Step up to the putter, set your feet and shoulders, and place your hands on the grip.
Take a look or two at the cup, if you like, then…
Stroke that sucker straight into the hole.
The “Bloodline” name is a nod to co-founder Brad Adams' family lineage which includes Brad's father, legendary TaylorMade founder, Gary Adams. Brad Adams started his equipment career more than 30 years ago and is credited with developing and co-authoring the Odyssey polymer insert patent. He went on to form the Never Compromise putter company, which claimed more victories on golf’s major tours in its first year than any putter brand in history.
Adams’ partner Larry Bischmann has been in the golf industry for over 25 years, In 2003, Larry led the team that launched the vaunted Diamana shaft, which became the most successful premium shaft brand in the world.
Is Bloodline made from high-performance materials?
You bet it is!
Here are a few more details about the construction/design:
Bloodline’s proprietary touch-point technology stabilizes the putter head at the optimal lie, loft, and face angle
Vale’s head is constructed using injection-molded, High-Performance Polymer (HPP)
Face grooves and polymer durometer are paired to deliver optimized feel and roll
An ultra-light carbon fiber shaft and lightweight grip, which create a super-low balance point, give the Vale superior stability throughout the stroke and exceptional forgiveness on miss-hits
Add it up and you can see why this putter has won over thousands of skeptical golfers and earned boatloads of praise.

“Best putter I've ever had. So easy to visualize the ball path as you line up and execute your putts. And to be able to step back and double check your alignment brings this putter to a whole new level.”
George W.
“I have been putting so well with this putter. I can see WHY for years I have always missed putts to the right. I align my (Vale) putter. Then walk behind, and sure enough, the putter is showing me that I was right. So I correct it and now I putt so well...”
Jerry K.
“Love this putter! I have to be saving at least 4 strokes a round as I am 71 and with my knees I am not able to squat down to line up a putt anymore. To set the VALE and walk behind it and make sure I have the line perfectly read is so helpful. Plus the weight being all in the head you can be so smooth as you stroke through the ball. You owe it to yourself to get this putter!”
David A.
“I was looking for a face balanced mallet putter first then I saw the stand alone alignment offered by the Vale putter and thought I would give it a try. The biggest benefit is not having to bend down and squat to align the ball. My knees appreciate the Vale Putter!”
Sue O.
“Amazing putter. Easy to line up, ball rolls beautifully. One group I play with cusses it continually, and the other says “let me try that!” Needless to say, I’m happy!!”
Haley
The vale is incredibly easy to line up and then see the line when standing over the ball! The ball comes off the face incredibly smoothly.
