I bet it was a WHOLE lot more intense than the 15 minute gig I experienced at the PGA Superstore.

This is why I asked to hear more. We have read threads about edel fitting and the more people understand how putter fittings work the better chance they will have to find the right putter

First off for me it has to be eye appeal as in how it sits at address. Good example and this is just me any Odyssey blade sits too closed to my eye. Second thing is the feel it has to feel right. Now as far as weight goes that is not an initial impression because  as most of you know  I am not scared to apply the lead tape. On the feel thing and again this is just me I do not like any kind of elastomer insert or milled face. Usually I am not a mallet type man even though I have been messing around with an Odyssey #7 in our pro shop recently. Actually that putter sits good to my eye just have not got the feel down yet with the insert.

But lately my old rusty Santa Fe has been hot since I changed my grip with my hands and besides I have around 100 different putters mostly vintage. As best as I can recall the "Newest" putters I have in my collection are a YES! Dianna (milled c groove face) and a Nike 003 Method (also a funky milled face) both of those were freebies. Most of my stuff is old Pings, old Bullseyes, lots of Spalding T.P. Mills and old Macgregor 8802 style putters. Really if I was to buy a new putter I might would go with the #7
