HONOLULU (AP) -- Tim Clark hopes he has found the solution to the anchoring ban for longer putter, even if it makes it feel as though he is starting over.

''I feel like this is my rookie season because I don't know what to expect,'' Clark said Tuesday at the Sony Open.

Clark is using a putter from BioMech called ''AccuLock'' in which the shaft leans forward and allows the grip to rest against the forearm during the stroke. It's a large, square head with a hole the size of the golf ball in the middle, and the shaft is attached to the rear to give it a forward lean.
