BrownBearGolf 289 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 PXG Blackjack Putter fitting with Miguel from Brown Bear Golf. Looking for an updated mallet putter brought us to PXG Headquarters in Scottsdale, AZ. We get to use hogh speed cideo and computer algorithims from Quintic putting lab. The fitter found some ways to curomize rhebputter to help me hitt better putts. We discuss competitors like TaylorMade Spider X and Odyssey Stroke Lab #10. As amazing as the Blackjack putter looks how did it perform? Is it a hit? Or is it a stand? Find out with Brown Bear! Quote Epic Flash Sub Zero 9degree. Hosel set to -1degree/Nuetral.

PeterHenric 117 Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I ordered a blackjack with the Plumbers neck and took delivery of it on Thursday. Got to take it for a spin yesterday and it performed well. I was previously hitting a blade style putter so the weight will take some getting used to. I’m happy with it so far. 1 Quote Driver: Callaway Mavrik 10.5º (Project X Evenflow Riptide 60 Stiff) 3 Wood: Titleist TS2 15º (Tensei AV Blue 65 Stiff) Hybrid 1: Titleist 818 H1 19º (Tensei HYB blue 80 Stiff) Hybrid 2: Titleist TS2 23º (Tensei AV Blue 70 Stiff) Irons: Titleist 718 AP1 5-PW (AMT Black Regular Flex) Wedges: Vokey SM7 48 10F, SM7 54 10S, SM8 56 08M Putter: PXG Blackjack (Plumbers Neck) and Kirkland Signature KS1 Link to post Share on other sites
ForeGlass 11 Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 @BrownBearGolf Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I am curious about PXG's offerings, but there isn't a fitting center near me. So deciding whether or not to try them is a little complicated.

JSki_Golf 8 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I've been tempted to try some PXG gear since there is a fitting center about an hour away from me. I've always have drawn to this brand and I can't put my finger on it to why I am interested. The Blackjack looks like a copy to the Taylormade Spider Tour Black but looks very interesting with the milled face, but the mustang putter blade looks interesting to me.

Hello!, That't too bad about there not being any fitting locations. Sometimes they go to courses to do off site fittings. Take a look at that. It's hard to order something sight unseen. I totally get that. Quote Epic Flash Sub Zero 9degree. Hosel set to -1degree/Nuetral. Aftermarket 10gram front weight and 6.5 gram sliding weight set to fade.

Have you had any concerns with the weight being too much for the stock shaft? I've been considering upgrading to a BGT or KBS shaft. The shaft seems to flex slightly on longer lag putts. Don't think it should do that. Quote Epic Flash Sub Zero 9degree. Hosel set to -1degree/Nuetral. Aftermarket 10gram front weight and 6.5 gram sliding weight set to fade.

That doesn’t mean it isn’t, just that I’ve never noticed it. Not sure that has ever even crossed my mind on any putter I’ve ever used. what you don’t know won’t hurt you? 1 Quote Driver: Callaway Mavrik 10.5º (Project X Evenflow Riptide 60 Stiff) 3 Wood: Titleist TS2 15º (Tensei AV Blue 65 Stiff) Hybrid 1: Titleist 818 H1 19º (Tensei HYB blue 80 Stiff) Hybrid 2: Titleist TS2 23º (Tensei AV Blue 70 Stiff) Irons: Titleist 718 AP1 5-PW (AMT Black Regular Flex) Wedges: Vokey SM7 48 10F, SM7 54 10S, SM8 56 08M Putter: PXG Blackjack (Plumbers Neck) and Kirkland Signature KS1 Link to post Share on other sites
