    Love the videos, have you noticed or could you tell if you hit it lower on the face at times? That gave me a louder sound than when hit flush.

    Happy learned how to putt! It was cold but I had to get out an try this putter and I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED!
    First impressions... Wow!! feels good and rolls the rock with consistency. 
    Hit about 70 putts today over at the Uniontown CC, Putt range varied from 6ft to 15ft.
    My initial putts had some speed control issues because of my stroke, but after about 15 putts I was able to roll it like I was in mid season form.
    I noticed that the ball didn't have very much skid prior rolling end over end, This putter has a 1.5* loft, I really like the lower loft, in the past I've dabbled with 0* to a negative1.0*. The loft on the AI#1 is perfect for me and configured perfectly with the setup of the overall scheme of the putter.
    A big surprise was the FEEL, whether struck toward the heel, toe or in the sweet spot, each put felt the same. I'm sure when you are using your old putters that you can tell there is a difference when you hit it on the heel, toe, center or even low on the putter face. This putter so far has eliminated that aspect so far but more to come on this subject.
    Here are 2 video links of the testing, I couldn't get the actual video to load even after shrinking them. Gave me an error message. Hope they work for everyone.
    Click the link and it will open a new window if not, Copy and paste the links into your browser then click the image of the video, it worked for me, hope it does for you.
    Added some photos of the course, even my mug shot! No Darts please!!

    Your videos worked fine as long as I was signed in. 
    I try to sweep the putter just slightly off the ground, so I'm probably making contact with the insert and the rim of the insert.  My next goal is to try center ground contact strikes vs center raised strikes.

    Got a little more work in last night it was to dark to take pics unfortunately had to use the lights on the golf cart to brighten up the practice green ( I live at the course so they cut me some favors) my biggest thing to note is I did a little work in the fringe and this putter I feel like just scoops the ball really will and it comes out of the fringe/ edge extremally well  it never got caught into the dirt like my other putter did when putting on the edge so for someone who uses the Texas wedge a lot its defiantly something to note im going to examine the putter tonight and maybe see if there is a reason for that plus  I go on vacation in 4 days and the putter is coming with me to play some rounds and also maybe talk the wife into some mini golf so more pics to come soon

    One of my videos above, I think will help with that thought.  I haven't had to texas wedge this yet. But the DB seems to have a very curved bottom compared to the others being tested.
    Also to note, after rereading the descriptions on their website, the DB was designed more for those with NO ARC in their stroke style. I'm definitely  going to have to work on that, As my videos definitely show a sweeping arc !

    Just got the putter and I'm super excited to get testing started, I've been playing this game for too many years(44yrs) going through so many different fads, gimmicks and any other new game improvement options that this new AI technology seems to be a real game changer.
    Reading about the AI#1 looked to be very promising, with the opportunity to test it on my terms, different conditions indoor and out, up hill, down hill and breaking putts I will provide the best honest assessment of the putter.
    Just taking it out of the box, it feels very well balanced at the head and counter balanced at the butt end that feels like it could swing itself. Here are some photos of the putter that will be tested.
    Initial impressions
    * Great look and excellent feel.
    * Sets up very nice at address with excellent visual alignment.
    * Loft and Lie appear to be perfect for my height and stroke, but will make note of any issues during testing.
    ... More to come

    I actually played the Odyssey Devine Line blade putter(don't laugh) a ladies putter, but the feel and comfort level I had from first touch in the store, It's been in my bag for a long long time. the AI actually feels a lot better stroke with the counter balance.  Great photos, I got to get some of those MGS balls.
    My Scotty has a milled face, first one that I have, it's ok but if I had to choose milled or insert it would be insert. 
    I went from a Taylormade TPAIII, to a Ping Zing ISOPUR to the (cough) Ladies putter.
    I even ordered a new putting green for the back yard 6'x12' waiting on that to ship. (not just for the testing, my old one is wore out.
    Thanks again for selecting me for the test.

    I see lots of the "white hot" inserts in play.  I probably could have chose either the milled or non-metal insert for this test but had heard that the non-metal faces take a little time adjusting to distance wise.  I feel I chose wisely as the milled face seems identical in rolling distance.
    Welcome to the test review and have fun testing!
