Zebhead Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 The Seven T is the best putter I have ever used and I’ve used a bunch of putters…and have 4-5 in the garage right now. Never been able to putt with any Scotty from blade to mallet. The feel, the balance and distance control are great with the Seven T. With that said, if you can make putts and have confidence using a sledge hammer then that is probably the best putter for you. There is not one best putter.

From my 20 minutues in a pro shop, about 35 years ago, choosing a PING B61 with my $100 tournament win, to a putter fitting a few years ago and testing and gaming the ER5v, to this current test of the Seven T CH, I can see where getting fitted is most important. The guys at TrueSpec were able to show me why a full mallet design suited my natural putting stroke the best. Until I joined MGS forum, I didn't know a thing about this stuff and thought much of it to be marketing hocus-pocus. My strokes gained testing between the B61 and ER5v showed a gain opportunity that subsequently proved itself on the course. My current SG tests show some opportunity as well and thus far course play is really, really close. This is telling me that I'm rolling the right category of putter and that these two putters are top shelf in terms of base design and technology.

Preeway Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 With the weather being uncooperative, and having a lot of down time the last few weeks, I've had plenty of time to read/watch more about putting mechanics and practice them on my putting mat. One nugget I found was about how putter-toe mishits lead to a tendency to have the ball start offline to the right (toe-side). The variance isn't always great but of course the further away you get, the more that 1º or 2º becomes an issue. Well, I decided to test this out myself and compared how toe mishits look with my Scotty, Bettinardi and the Odyssey. The videos below show the outcomes and well, the ending perhaps isn't as surprising as you might think. A short disclaimer, my floor has a slight bulge about 3 feet in front of the ball causing a minor swerve in the roll out. For this test, I was only looking at the roll of the ball for the first 3 feet to see how toe misses come off the face. In total I took about 20-30 putts with both center strikes and toe strikes with all three putters. After recording and watching the rollouts in series of 5 at a time I noticed with rare exception that all center strikes had a straight rollout as evidenced by watching the roll of the ball with the center line on the putting mat. In contrast, toe strikes with both the Scotty and the Bettinardi were starting offline about 80% of the time. The Odyssey on the other hand was remarkably better at staying on line when being hit off the toe with only 10%-20% of the putts starting off line. The Scotty Cameron The Bettinardi And the Odyssey My most common miss when putting is either short or right. I was impressed early when I could see how mishits didn't cause much loss in distance and now I'm equally pleased to see how mishits with the Odyssey have a tendency to stay online better that either the Scotty or the Bettinardi. I'm bummed that I'm having such a hard time getting on the course to test this out but so far what I'm seeing on a practice green and on my putting mat has all signs potentially pointing to a new gamer in my bag.

I am impressed by Evnroll's claims pertaining to the novel face groove design and I'm equally impressed by Odyssey's AI face design.

Well, we started off today like we left off yesterday; with a 3 putt for bogey on the first green (from 15 feet) and nearly 3 putting on the second green . Confidence was waning even further. It was downright nasty weather for AZ. An hour frost delay, 41F at tee time with a light 4 mph breeze. The forecast was for the wind to build quickly and be sustained at 15+ with gusts to 25+... and the forecast was right except for the light 20 minute rain shower... yuck. I managed a 37/39 with better than average chipping. The Odyssey seemed to come back around the latter half of the front 9 and held its own through the rest of the round but even putting started getting silly in the wind. On the last hole, I clubbed down and hit a 6i from 144 yards, directly into the teeth of the wind. It was a well struck shot, ballooned, and ended 10 feet short of the green . So I'm giving today's putting performance a neutral score.

fixyurdivot Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Well, yesterday's abysmal round unintentionally put the Odyssey into some new test conditions; really long lag putts on really fast greens. The results were not good. I had five 3 putts . Our Granite Falls North course underwent an experiment of sorts - a no winter overseed of the fairways. The course is the second of the four to have the tees and greens re-done in a manner that reduces water consumption. And like Granite Falls South was the year after its renovation a few years ago, the greens are firm and fast. But they went one step further with the no-overseed fairway experiment and, well, let's just say it is awful and won't be repeated. Usually I can get at least aim or distance correct, but not yesterday. My wedge game was in the toilet and partly because I'm struggling with the fairway turf interaction on the North course. It's basically dormant Bremuda that's been painted green . Anyway, this left me with a handful of 60+ feet lag putts, several on the most severe contoured greens. One putt was closer to 90 feet over a Tim's Potato Chip. Perhaps the poor play getting to the green just oozed over into my putting... but it's got me considering benching the Odyssey for my Wednesday round.

Well, I did run that H2H test from long range (56 ft.), but not as long or severe as several of yesterday's lags. That test showed the Odyssey to offer modest improvement at getting closer. The Odyssey is ~20 grams lighter than the Evnroll, so perhaps that is a factor? I haven't had the ER5v in the bag for over a dozen rounds now as I really want to see on-course performance (I keep track of my total putts).

I haven't had the ER5v in the bag for over a dozen rounds now as I really want to see on-course performance (I keep track of my total putts). I should probably disregard yesterday's mess and chalk it up to an off-day and crazy long lag putts we almost never encounter and certainly don't practice.

But if it did, that would be the putter I’d buy!
