mgustin Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Black body, silver face. I can see how contrast would be important. Wonder if drawing black around the outer edge of the stickers might help with the contrast? Great job on the putting! Three putts can be killers. Big reason for my working on my EXPUTT! Hate giving up strokes and having my last 25 feet take more strokes than the first 375 yards. cksurfdude 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavinski91 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 I have a white face on my putter, and haven't had issues as long as I don't have the light pointing directly at the putter face (and I don't use the stickers). I stick with overhead lighting, and sometimes an additional reading light pointed at 45° down on the mat from behind. cnosil, GolfSpy_SHARK and cksurfdude 3 Quote Driver - Radspeed XB, Aldila Rogue Silver 70-S 3 Wood - Radspeed, Aldila Rogue Silver 70-S 5 Wood - Radspeed, Fujikura Motore X F3 6-S 7 Wood - 0341x Gen 4, Mitsubishi Tensei AV Raw Blue 75-S Irons - Pro 225 4-5, 223 6-PW, KBS $-Taper 120 Wedges - King Cobra Snakebite 52° & 58°, KBS Hi-Rev 2.0 S Putter - Stroke Lab Black Ten 35" Ball - Chrome Soft X LS Powered by 2020 ExPutt Official Review | 2021 Cobra Connect Five Participant | 2023 SuperSpeed Official Review Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GolfSpy MPR Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 If all goes well, I will be unboxing an ExPutt in the next couple of weeks! Very excited about this, first, because I love the idea of having a way of dialing in distance control. Being winter-bound for roughly six months a year gives me a lot of time to practice 8 foot putts, but little chance to practice 30 foot putts. I'm also excited about this because, as a man with six children, it's the perfect mini-simulator for games with my family. gavinski91, cnosil, TJ Hall and 4 others 6 1 Quote TS3 9.5°, Tensei Blue CBX T3 15°, Project X HZRDUS Black Epic Super Hybrid 18°, Aerotech Steel Fiber FC HYB S C722 21°, Ventus Blue 8S CBX Iron-Wood 25°, Project X HZRDUS Black 6.0 639 CB, Aldila NV 95 Graphite, 6–PW CBX 48° T22 54° and 60° EAS 4.0, Garsen G-Pro grip TP5x and Tour Response Full WITB with pictures Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have 2 and feel like there isn’t enough time in the day. Excited to see how the EXPUTT works for you…saw a setup earlier today and it was nice looking!

Rearviewmirror Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 So I don't want to overdo this, but this thing has literally turned around my putting game. Granted, I did make some technique changes due to what it combined with my Mezz revealed, but even so - holy moly! For folks not familiar with Arccos, the two lines are my last 30 rounds. The grey trend line is rounds 30 to 16, and the orange line is rounds 15 to 1 (1 being most recent round). The low point on the orange line was the round before the ExPutt. As you can see, it's been quite the improvement!! That one dip in the orange line was on a course where they had just deep-tined the greens and there was maybe an 1/8" of sand on top. Otherwise my putting has been bulletproof. cnosil, Preeway, gavinski91 and 4 others 4 1 2 Quote Ping G430 Max 10K (10.5º) - Ping G425 Max 3W (14.5º) - Ping G425 Max 5W (18.5º) - Ping G425 Max 4 Hybrid - Ping i230 5-UW - RTX6 54º and 58º - LAB Golf Mezz.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Preeway Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 I’ve following along and this is definitely on my 2024 Christmas list.

Otherwise my putting has been bulletproof. That's a huge improvement. I have had similar success. I played in Arizona back in January and had not been practicing putting at home. Predictably, putting was abysmal over those 3 January rounds (average of -7 SG relative to scratch). So, in February and March, I started again with daily Exputt practice (along with practice on a perfect practice mat) - maybe 5-10 mins per day. Sure enough, I played two rounds in Arizona last week and my putting was back to -1 SG (relative to scratch). So, a 6 stroke improvement from just putting. The key for me seems to be to keep practicing (exputt and mat) a little bit each day, otherwise those putting skills erode quickly.

For me the only challenge is disaggregating poor technique and the impact of practice. The ExPutt helped me identify where some things were going wrong, which combined with a bunch of practice has ironed out a lot of my putting woes. I've regressed back a little bit as seen below in the orange line (honestly not been practicing as much with ExPutt as I've been out on the course more) and as a result have had a couple of three putts creep in, along with a few shorter misses during aeration season. That said, it's still night and day from where I was before. Weather has started to warm up and I'm guessing green speeds will follow, and I do typically putt better on faster greens. cksurfdude, Preeway, OHgolfer2 and 3 others 5 1 Quote Ping G430 Max 10K (10.5º) - Ping G425 Max 3W (14.5º) - Ping G425 Max 5W (18.5º) - Ping G425 Max 4 Hybrid - Ping i230 5-UW - RTX6 54º and 58º - LAB Golf Mezz.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
