John you are correct and I already came to the same conclusion a standard head is too light for a belly.
My son Duane is real picky on his requirements with 11 of his 14 clubs set for 20 years. His backup set is 7 years old, identical and never hit. Only 3 clubs he will try to find better are: driver | hybrid | putter. Most heads are fit by himself by eye. LH'ed much harder to find the gold nugget. I play the Yes Natalie and his best friend plays the Emma I built. Duane puts on an arc (Utley not Pelz) so needs toe hang and not face balanced. He has already dismissed both of these designs and the Carolyne is centre shafted. He loves the low loft and C-groove which Yes provides, along with a no insert solid stainless face. Can someone take a 400 gram Carolyne head and modify it to fit his requirements? Right now he plays a Yes Callie which kicked out a rare limited edition S Cameron out of his bag which we sold.

Belly putter heads should be in the 400g-425g range, long putters 450-500g. I'd go with the Yes! Carolyne, it should be about 390g. I'm playing a properly weighted Yes C-groove Emma and Natalie model and they're excellent.
