SPY VIP GolfSpy Dave Posted March 22, 2012 SPY VIP Share Posted March 22, 2012 Saw a couple of these in the local shop today. Much cooler than the original IMO. Maybe they can do one in orange and black and then both sides can be armed for the 2012 Civil War... Thoughts?

Three Guys Golf Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Yikes! Never used a Nike putter and certainly never a yellow and green putter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Saternus Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Pretty cool...took the theme all the way with the HC and grip. Not surprising, I guess, what with the putter being Swoosh U colors. Follow me on Twitter: @MattSaternus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RookieBlue7 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 No, Nike's founder is an Oregon alum and they're based in Oregon. They always do green and yellow Ducks themed golf stuff that's very limited. I'm betting this is another one. When they're resold they usually command a premium too.

Matt Saternus Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Richard, I was not as shocked as you by the look of it, but I am shocked by the sales. At my shop, we've moved through...maybe half a dozen? For as funky looking as that is, and at $200 (I think), that's a lot!

RoverRick Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 And people are offended by the use of belly putters. Uck. This is an abomination, but it looks better with the cover on. I am not sure I would take the cover off and walk on the green with it. Even if I was assured that I would sink every putt with it. Maybe if I could just sort of fold the over back and expose just the face.

Unfortunately for it, it's still pretty horrendous Awesome nostalgia-inducing reference! I don't really like green or yellow, but I do kinda dig this look. Unfortunately, the putter sits WAY open, so no go for me. Follow me on Twitter: @MattSaternus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Saternus Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Matt, I was probably a little too harsh..I had a rough morning!...And I experimented last year w/the Spider CS, & this one's no worse looking than the spider..But $200..Wow!...Did ya try it?..what was it like?...Fairways & Greens 4ever.... I putted with it at the PGA Show Demo Day. The biggest thing is that it sits WAY open, like at least 10 degrees. The feel is ok...similar to other Methods I would say. And it's not unpleasant to swing, feels pretty balanced. I just couldn't get over the way it sat at address.

RookieBlue7 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 This thing works for someone that has a really closing gate stroke. I tried it out a week or two ago because, well, it was sitting there and I'm a putter *****. Yes, it does not work AT ALL for someone that's pretty much SBST like myself. But, if I had a closing gate stroke, it'd work great. That said, I hate the lack of any alignment aids on it.

But, if I had a closing gate stroke, it'd work great. That said, I hate the lack of any alignment aids on it. I'm actually going to post a review of the concept as soon as it warms up enough for them to start mowing greens around here. With standard putters my natural stroke is a slight to moderate arc. My biggest issue is that I tend to be quick and take the putter back to the outside rather than straight back or slightly inside. The weighting on the Concept really helps me from pushing it to the outside. Now if only they'd make it a belly version. Kidding... No I'm not.
