Best Answer

A putter face must be flat so when you hit the ball it goes where you want it to go. If you are referring to loft, a putter has about 3-4 degrees of loft, this is because this loft gives the ball the most consistent roll.

There cannot be such a shape. It is not a cylinder because a cylinder sdoes not have a rectangular face. A rectangle must be a flat face and the only flat faces in a cylinder are the circle faces.

Are putter chipper golf clubs legal?

Depends. There's nothing wrong with a club that looks sort of like a putter with loft. It can't, however, be usable from both sides. According to the rules: Appendix II, 4c states that: The clubhead must only have one striking face, except that a putter may have two such faces if their characteristics are the same, and they are opposite each other. This rule was intended to specifically prohibit clubs with two striking faces, but they made an exception for plain blade putters with two identical opposing faces.
