golfer69 22 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Hi anyone game the newer Bobby Grace putter F-18? Went to NJ golf show and was very impressed with the technogy, face insert options, custom weighting etc. Demoed it on the roll board and was as if not better than evnroll. Has distance controlk technology on toe and heel strikes. Sent from my SM-N920V using MyGolfSpy mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downlowkey 4,164 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Haven't gamed the new F-18 but got to hit some putts with my buddy's heel shafted model. Seemed to have a great roll off the face insert he had in it but the rain ran us off so I didn't get to tinker with the other inserts. I've been a fan of Bobby Grace Designs for over a decade. My current gamer is the first BGD putter I ever owned. Currently have the M5K GT, M6.4K GT, Fat Lady Swings and an extra weird B4J 12K MOI. Bobby was offering custom weight kits, hawking extreme MOI and touting roll board stats 15 years ago. Kinda feels like I've been cheating and everyone else is just now catching up.

golfer69 22 Posted February 17, 2017 Author Share Posted February 17, 2017 Good stuff. I hit it on the roll board and as good if not better than evnroll my 2nd choice. Also has distance control technology on off center hits like evnroll but accomplished differently .

03trdblack 1,039 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I have the 4 diamond Anser style version and his inserts are in my opinion are some of the best designs out there. He has the grooves in the face as well as a slight curvature that is supposed to get the ball rolling much quicker. Not only that he has two different types of rubber where if you strike in the heel or toe the ball will go the same distance as a center hit due to a firmer material and a higher rebound rate. With all this praise I have to say that I rarely use the putter and the reason why is the insert is just too soft. With the latest trend of golf balls getting softer, the insert is so soft that I can't feel the strike. This makes distance control next to impossible for me because there isn't any feedback. I would love it if the center rubber felt like the harder outside rubber sections and the outside sections were harder still because then I could feel the putts again. If you play a harder Surlyn type ball though these putters are absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend them. Quote My bag is a revolving door!

Jmikecpa 13,444 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 That is a solid stick and rolls the ball really true. I picked up my first Grace last summer and it is a work of art.
