Heavy Putter

[Rmack]

I put the Boccieri b3 Heavy Putter in my bag for this year. With the weather just changing I've only had the opportunity to play it twice. I have noticed that putting has improved. Last year I was averaging around 2.2 putts per hole. This year so far I am averaging around 1.8. Has anyone else used the heavy Putter and have they seen similar results?

Yes, for several years I used the Boccieri C2-DF blade putter.  Most standard putters in stores are too long for me, but one day I found this 32" women's putter with pink lettering.  Loved it, the heavy weight smoothed out my stroke. My only issue was the blade models didn't have enough MOI, and while speed of putts was good, I missed short putts that I really shouldn't have.  Your B3 model might have worked for me.

However, I went to Ping for a fitting and walked away with a custom fit Sigma G Doon.  The 400g head and counterbalance worked great for my stroke, and I love the feel of the ball off the face.  I can't see going back.

I used one for a few years. I do think it smoothed out my stroke, especially for the knee knocking four footers. I found lag putting more difficult though

I'll have to give this brand a demo. I'm thinking this is the year for a new putter. With as little as I get to practice I really wonder if it will do any good, but I've been gaming the same Ping Isopur B60i for so many years it feels like part of me; but with technology advancing perhaps so should I.

I need a heavy putter to smooth out my takeaway and stop going outside the swing path.

Current mallet and blade are too light so I will check this out also if I can find a stockist

Before you are for certain that you need a new putter, you might think about putting on a fat grip (if you haven't already). I did about a year ago and it helped with takeaway. I'm still thinking a new putter is in order. It's just a thought that could save you some money.

Thanks, I put on a superstroke 3.0 but it just made the head feel even lighter so I start outside the line a lot, and from there nothing good will happen. I missed the hole completely from 18 inches today with an out to in stroke and open face

Someone on here suggested the 'new' Cleveland Huntington Beach 11 putter which comes in at 370g and by all reviews compares favourably to a scotty or odyssey at 3 times the price, its milled with soft steel and no inserts which I like, inserts dont work with me lol

 

heres a review MGS did a few months back...https://mygolfspy.com/first-look-cleveland-huntington-beach-soft-putters/

I'll give that a look to. If it helps me miss my millimeters rather than inches, as per the review, I'd be all for it!
