    I bought a pair of Sundogs MANY years ago. Loved them! Great value. Less glare than the several pairs of Oakleys that I own. They just don't hug the hat like Oakleys do.  ...Unfortunately, none of them are any good to me. My old eyes need prescription lenses. 🙈

    Would love to test them, but I also wear prescription bifocal lenses and they include transition lenses in grey. which are fantastic.  The VA does a good job ensuring my eyes are well protected from the sun rays.

    Sounds great but am enrolled in TPI program and have been doing Physical Therapy since October.  These type programs do help.  

    Am 77 and trying to stay fit and help my golf game and play into my 90s.  Maybe then I can shoot my age.....ha..ha..ha..

    I currently game a Scotty Cameron Select Newport 2 35in with 15 grm weights, milled face and a Ping Matte PLD milled faced putter.  Use the Ping when on very fast greens.  Would love to compare the Odyssey Ai-ONE Milled One T CH.  Used to play Callaway putters before going to SC.  Think it would be a good comparison.  Odyssey vs Scotty Cameron and Ping PLD, all milled faced putters, all are anser style with plumber neck shafts. Thank you for any consideration.  Play on #19 muni in US as rated by golf.com three days a week.  Seth Raynor style greens.

    This is going to be a great opportunity for a few folks!  

    AI-ONE MILLED EIGHT T S PUTTER is one slick looking putter.

    Love the opportunity to test the new T350s and compare them to the first generation T300s.  Especially since the 350s are now forged clubs.  I am really stoked about the new editions and hope that I might be blessed with a test set.    

    These are favorable for we seniors (76) with various disabilities who are looking for control and distance.  At least that is what I got out of the first generation.  Would be very interested to see how much they have changed with them now being forged.  Thanks for the opportunity!

    Would love to be a part of this test.  Has been a few years since I have played Callaway irons.  Would love to see how much they have come along and compare them to what I am currently playing.  

    I currently play Titleist T300 irons 5-48W, True Temper R300 shafts, irons are 2* flat and shafts .5* over.  Was fitted by a Titleist fitter and am very comfortable with the irons.  Would love to test the Callaway against these very forgiving irons.  Am 76 years old and hit them very well.  Hit my seven iron 150 yards.  All other iron around 10-15 yard gaps.  Have been reading all the marketing around the new release about their forgiveness and am very curious to test them against my T300s.  It would be an honor to again be a tester.

    Sorry that I am late but weather has not been our friend with the tropical storm season upon us on the east coast.  I love the look and feel of the ERV2 but the grip that I asked for was a 104c and the sent a 140c which as you see is much bigger and does not set well in my fingers.  Does it affect the performance?  Our greens are fast for a much used municipal golf course, running normally around 11 and having around 65K plus rounds a year.  Lots of thumbprints, redans, bowls, undulations and fast greens.  A renovation with Seth Raynor type greens and bunkers.   .  

    Round         1-10ft  11-30ft   31-50ft    51+ft  (to understand the below numbers, 1/2 would be one two putt)

    1 #/putts         5/1      7/2          1/2          1/2        

                                              1/3                               1/3   

                                                                                    1/4              33 putts     

    2 #/putts        3/1       1/1          1/2         1/2          

                           1/2        6/2        1/3          1/3

                           1/3        1/4                                             35 putts   

    3 #/putts        3/1       5/2         1/2          1/2 

                           2/2       1/3           1/3            1/3

                           1/3        1/4                                            37 putts  

    4 #/putts       4/1         5/2         1/2           1/2

                          4/2                                         1/4            30 putts   

    As you can see with my play, my number of putts increased from day one as I tested the product, until the last day.  Day one the greens had been punched three days prior and were slow and the putter worked fairly well and as they sped up the number of putts did increase some.  It is heavy which would be great for those playing on slower greens running in the 8-10 range.   The loft on this putter is set at 4* which is for slower greens.   Of the 135 putts made 96 of them were within the 1-30 foot range.  As you can see the three/four putts are bolded and there the same in the under 30 feet as in the over thirty feet.  That is my reason for saying that this putter is better suited for slower or flatter greens.  As a former auditor numbers and statistics are there for interpretation.  Me I like to know how it feels, lines up and putts.  If you hit the ball outside the milled area, you will definitely hear and feel it.  Something I am not accustomed to.  A real shocker the first time I played with it.  It lines up nicely but the weight is a bit much for me.  I am used to a lighter putter and think that the head and the grip on this putter have added a bit of weight to a great shaft.  I would mind having one of these shafts in one of my Scotty Cameron putters to test.  I am a big fan of Fujikura products and all my metals have their shafts in them.  I feel that the best test for any product is on the course.  My group laughs at me as I walk off the distances as line up my putts and one asked me one day what I was doing when I was gathering the data.  I most likely will have one more when I return to play next week.  I like to give every product every chance.  Cheers.

    Congratulations testers!  Do we now have 2 or 3 putter reviews going on?  In any case, we should have some kind of "putt-off" contest.  I'll be interested to hear what your thoughts are using composite shafts.  Have fun 👍.

    Am really excited about being chosen and look forward to testing the composite shaft on the putter.  I have Fujikura shafts on my Driver, Fairway and hybrids and love them.  The Evnroll putter will be something new for me also.  Will give the combo a fair test.  Thanks for the opportunity.

    Have been playing Cameron Newport 2 putters for many years, but willing to test any putter out there that can offer improved alignment and good feel. At the ripe young age of 74 I continue to work on my game, especially on the greens/short game.
