GaDawg Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 All I have to say is you live in a great place! Me an my wife along with two other couples went to St. Andrews in 2009. It was the greatest golf trip ever, the ladies absolutely loved the trip too! We plan on coming back and staying for a couple of weeks, just driving from golf course to golf course. Beautiful country and great people! Good luck with the golf.

Many Thanks. Fore!! Some pictures would be great! I used to play an STX Sync Tour and generally liked it, but I finally determined a face-balanced putter was not for me - I was way too inconsistent with it.

Hi Connor, I own quite a few putters (not really something to brag about but its true)- The Spider is 45 degree toe-hang-weighted. So you have to setup slightly different to the STX Sync Tour which is completely face balanced... I am straight-straight putter, minimal arc... So with that setup face balanced everything should be even weight, ball centre, no shaft lean. With the Spider 45 degree toe hang, setup with more weight left side ball roughly same position but shaft lean, thus lowering left shoulder. Its a comfort think but I have Cleveland SmartSquare putter face-balanced but heavy weighted- for windy days for stability. STX for calmer days, fast greens. Toe hang putters take out on course when want to putt aggressive. - Sorry long-winded explanation hahahaha take care brother Nic and connerp93 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And go ahead and brag, if not here than where else, right? :)Sent from my SM-G973U using MyGolfSpy mobile app Brettyboy187 and Nic 2 Quote Driver: Super Speedline S - 9.5 Diamana XS 60 3W & 3Hy: Super Speedline S - Stiff Irons: RAC OS II - Stiff - Standard loft/lie Wedges: MD3 S-Grind 52, 56 Putter: TP Ardmore 3 - L Neck Ball: ProV1X Bag: Players 4 Stand Bag Fort Worth, TX- RH - 10 Handicap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
