Caddyroom Take
The Anser 2 is Ping's modern production version of the heel-toe weighted blade that started the perimeter weighting era in putting. The 2021 version uses 17-4 stainless with tungsten heel and toe weights to raise MOI without changing the visual profile of the head. It sits in the same category as the Scotty Cameron Newport 2: a plumbing neck blade for a slight arc stroke, a design that has not fundamentally changed in decades because it does not need to. The Ping color-fitting system means most used examples are fitted to a specific lie angle, which matters if the buyer is a different height than the original owner.
