I must be an old timer, I have the line and the pitch and the tool. Don't use it very often as you can imagine.
A EXCELLENT explanation.
and on a Macgregor Tourney ?

Sanding or prepping after a cut, particularly when cutting by hand or machine is a great idea. I do a quick end prep on the sander to remove rough edges. The glue thing is new to me and may be overkill but hey!, it certainly works and if you want to do that then by all means enjoy the process.

The 95 is a proto shaft that is a stiffer profile for an aggressive golfer.
The 780 is a much softer profile. it may be stiff but the profile is very good.

I've had the seven, marksman and 2 ball in the shop. First impression is the detail delivered in each of the putters. The added texture of the lines in the darker part of the putter and the red accent of the Aluminum all capped with the stroke lab have made these a very popular putter just from an aesthetics point of view..
I have found the "S" neck option to be the better selection for most, not all, but most. IF you are the arc putter looking for more help in the aiming department then you might want to check them out. The newer insert gives the putter a better more solid feel and apparently a sound preferred on tour. Whatever that means.
The contrasting colors, the shapes for alignment (2 balls, lrg lines and overall head shape) the stroke lab, the insert and then the choice of a mid size pistol and jumbo style non taper grip helps makes putts After a proper fitting of course.
I said had as I only have the 2 ball left.

Did a review on the professional grip station.
I added an office size trash can and put it near an outlet for a heat gun and near the grips.
Mrs McGolf is using quite regularly now.

If you think it a truetemper product, send them the step pattern (customer service?) and they should be able to help.

You are virtually hitting a knuckle ball. Hopefully you are recovering well from the surgeries.
I might suggest a club not so techie. In the Wilson C300 with the preferred shaft. The MGS folk found it worked best for golfers with SS in your range.
would like to hear when they come up with

There was a puller from Golfsmith that was pictured in a blue vice. The puller went into the vice.

Shaft breakage just above the tip is typically a result of hitting near the hosel or hitting the ground just before impact.
A second possible cause is when bring the club around it hits your back. This typically results in a break towards the middle but can be closer to the head.

The USGA has a procedure in which to measure club length
However it is a go- no go gauge, meaning it is only testing for max allowable length of the club.
I did a video a year ago on length
There gobs (that's a technical term) of gadgets out there to measure length. There are also a ton of considerations to measuring length so long as its less than 48" and longer the 18" you are all good. Which brings into question just how is it really done?
While trying to stay as close to the directive in the procedure I would consider a machine/rule/gadget in that the club lays horizontally. I would also measure to the crown of the grip. That's the beginning of the angle of cap, IMO it eliminates the bowing of the cap if put on too far. Secondly and as we all know that iron lie angles change (unless single clubs are in the bag). So you have a choice. Measure ALL your clubs at 60 deg i.e. the Mitchell ruler or allow for a change in the lie angle, this will include the changes in driver lie angles. with an adjustable plate for the club to sole against. Golf Mechanix, Golf works etc.
Keeping in mind its what fits your own personal logic make up so long as you don't go too long or too short.

For little guys check out T squared putters or swag putters. They not cheap but they are small.

I would not get to infatuated with 40T as the defining characteristic of the golf shaft. Chances are, the fitter will not know that parameter of the shaft unless it is part of the marketing for the shaft.
There are plenty of other characteristics that will impact your choice. When the fitter does his/her job you will be evaluated and given choices associated with the evaluation. Give them a try, you may find that a non 40T shaft works better.
But, do tell the fitter your interests in that type of shaft, they might have the exact thing you are looking for

Counter Balance Grip on Putter
in Putter Buzz
Posted
We've been counter balancing putters since 2000.
Counter balancing IMO helps override the fast twitch muscles in the hands up to the forearms.
We used and still do use an insert weight but the superstroke had made it easy to add the weight.
There are others and as long as you are comfortable with the feel and style of the grip it aint all bad.
