A pendulum type putter includes a U-shaped, yoke-like handle, connected at an angle to the club shaft. The yoke includes a rotatable mandrel pivotable at opposed ends between the legs of the U-shaped yoke, while the bight of the yoke has an adapter for connection to the club shaft. The yoke legs, bight and club shaft are swung in pendulum like fashion by gripping the shaft and mandrel and swinging the shaft with a pendulum-like motion relative to the mandrel. The use of the yoke alleviates any interference with the pendulum movement of the shaft by the grip of the user. Further, the mechanical advantage gained by spacing the shaft adapter at an angle from the mandrel makes it easier to swing the club with less force.
