putter
Club for taps
A putter is a golf club designed for short, precise strokes on the green, rolling the ball toward the hole.
To putter is also to occupy oneself with minor tasks in an unhurried way: He spent the morning puttering around the garage.
This sense, also spelled potter in British English, suggests pleasant aimlessness rather than productive work.
