I have the 39” Jailbird 380 and love it so far. I have an extra Stability Tour shaft sitting around and I’m debating swapping out the steel shaft for it. I’ve used the stability shafts on other putters and like them a lot. The 17” putter grip and length would all stay the same for counter balancing. Are there any downsides to this that I should be aware of? Would you recommend doing this?

Yes. At least that’s my plan.

Just curious how everyone visually lines up the ball. For example, I have a BirdieBall putting mat in my garage, I absolutely suck at visualizing a line to the hole so really trying to work on it. If I have my ball anywhere on the mat, I try and draw a line from the middle of the hole back to the ball but am very inconsistent in getting the line right (I miss putts way left or way right). I tried standing behind the ball and lining the shaft of my putter from the middle of the ball to the middle of the hole to try and see the line leveraging that since it's straight and that's helped slightly. Does anyone have any other recommendations on how to see the line to the target spot? I'm trying this approach because I can pick a spot an inch in front of the ball and can line up decently to that but the spot but the spot I pick is usually wrong in relation to the right line that would get the ball in the middle of the cup (on a straight putt). Any suggestions would be helpful.

Does anyone know if you can use the stove flame to break up the epoxy on the top portion of the steel rod that gets inserted into the stability shaft? I don't know if heating up the stability shaft part with high heat would melt it or cause an issue? Would you need a shaft puller to remove the steel rod or could you just twist it out? In addition, could you heat up the LA golf shaft (specifically talking about the p-soho shaft) with direct high heat like that because I believe it's mainly considered steel? Could you also twist it or would you need a shaft puller for that as well?

I've struggled with getting proper alignment with my putter for awhile. I think I've finally settled on a Seemore Nashville MFGP SS Blade Black because it has the alignment line on the top and with a blade which I like better than a mallet. The initial white paint on the alignment line chipped off. I've read previously that red stands out the best against the green so I'm debating using red instead of the initial white to try it but not sure if it will be too visually distracting. Does anyone have any recommendations on what color to use for the easiest visual alignment? I'm assuming it's personal preference but not sure if there is any science behind it really.

Stay below the hole

Saw this video tonight and it’s incredible. Could really help some people with their putting. Just wanted to share. https://youtu.be/qp6k5d8FJOA

Here is a video of it IMG_0785.MOV

Don’t have stats unfortunately. However, on the course I struggle mightily from 5 feet and in with pulls left. I’m much better from further away my or at least feels like it. It’s much more consistent even on the indoor mat I have, I rarely miss from the 9 feet and it’s just going left from 4 feet. I feel like if it’s slower my face closes faster

Yes, my miss is always left. I mean for inconsistencies is that one day they are going fairly straight and other days it's left it's right. It's harder to manage the face when the path is different depending on the day (I know that can be said for anything in golf haha)

I'm just trying to keep my middle section very square to the line and rock the shoulders. I feel like I'm powering it with my left side actually and then I feel like I really have to side bend or force my hands around the left side on the follow through to keep the arc.

I and just tried it again. Same results as you can see here.

I’m working on my putting and for some reason I can’t get my putter to continue on an arc after impact. It goes out to the right leading to very inconsistent putts. I’m attaching a photo at impact which I can get the putter back fairly ok to square but the second pic you can see it travels out to the right. Any drills or feelings you can recommend to get it to continue on the inside and follow the arc? Thanks!

I got mine today (ordered directly from their website) and my initial thoughts are wow. I got the B14 and it is so clean and good looking. I had the B6 putter and the 14 is so much cleaner and the curved lines are much easier on the eyes in my opinion. In terms of feel, it's softer and feels more forgiving. I like the feel a lot better than the previous version. The weighting is also perfect. If you can't tell, I love it so far.

@Tom the Golf Nut thank you. Would that also cut steel shafts or do you need a different disc?
