<p>A putter head (10) comprises a plate-like body portion (12), a heel weight (14) and a toe weight (16). A front side (18) of the body portion defines a ball-striking surface (30) for striking a golf ball. The heel and toe weights extend downwardly from the body portion and are spaced apart in a heel-to-toe direction. The heel and toe weights thus define a channel (41) between them that extends along an underside of the body portion along a width dimension thereof. The putter head provides a relatively small ball contact area which has the effect of concentrating the reaction force when the putter head contacts a ball. This provides a putter incorporating the putter head (10) with more "feel". Furthermore, the putter head presents a relatively small frontal surface area which reduces the possibility of the putter head snagging on grass at the fringe of a putting green.</p>
