perseveringgolfer Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 Really useful video with surprising stats about most of us not being fitted, as I haven't either but finding a good putter fitter isnt easy as said on the vid. The iPing app sounds good but I cant see it in the Apple App store, is it called something else? Anyway, good video and hopefully it will help me and others.

I am a fan of the app. In regard to the video, that made so much sense and helped clarify the basics to the putter world for me. I am really liking this new Most Wanted Monday series and the evolution it has made since it first started.

tony@CIC Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 I'll second the comments for this free app. While I was originally fitted for my putter using this app I've since purchased the cradle ($10) and use it as a trend indicator.

mooremikea Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 I purchased a cradle yesterday. What Adam said really made sense if you are not going to pay for a fitting this is the next best thing. The cradle was under $20 including shipping and a free app. Most of my putters are face balanced and I have struggled with pulling puts. Interesting to see what type of stroke the app says I have.

goaliewales14 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I'm not going to lie that after watch the video I went to Golf Galaxy to play with different putters. I just purchased my Ping Oslo back in November, but I didn't go through a fitting. I did go through a pretty extensive testing of every putter out there before going with mine. Still made me feel better to watch all of the slight arc and strong arc putters all miss to the right.

Peaksy68 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Great timing for me, I've been missing a lot of 6-10 foot putts slightly left lately. Fortunately my MLA Tour Mallet comes with 3 different pairs of weights. As I'm not playing this week I've changed the heel weight from 15g to 10g. It's made the putter very slightly toe down, and I've got a bit of time to test it out on the practice green before I play next. If it's worse I can change back in a few seconds. 849 Pro Evenflow Riptide 6.0 F8 3 & 5 Woods Project X Evenflow Blue 6.0 TS2 7 Wood Project X Evenflow Blue 6.0 MP18 MMC - Project X LZ 5.5 Zipcore Wedges 50,54,58 - Project X LZ 5.5 MLA Tour Mallet 33" Z Star Pioneer bag buggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny you say that......I just did some messing around too. I downloaded the Ping app then made a home made cradle since they don't sell one for plus-sized phones. Used it for a few sessions and found I had a 'strong' arc and was making impact with a closed face. Took the MLA weights and put the 15g in the toe and 5g in the heel. Now I've got a slight arc with a slightly open face. I bet the 10/5 or 15/10 (like you have) will be the ticket.

From a family friend/app developer: Apps for iphone are more streamlined to generate. You're creating it for one type of phone. Apps for androids are more complicated and take longer to test because you have the same operating system, but with different nuances for Samsung, HTC, Nokia, etc. I switched to an iPhone simply for better golf apps. Not the camera, not the processing speed, mainly for the selection of golf apps out there for the iPhone.
