Jim Shaw Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 i think we have discussed this at some point but I just saw a post by @GolfSpy BOS that he is going to fool around with a new to him putter this winter. I have heard folks discuss how many putters they have "just in case". So I am wondering how many putters spy's have. tdroma98, sirchunksalot, Josh Parker and 6 others 8 1 Quote committed to performance excellence Link to comment
BMart519 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I have my gamer - a custom fit Edel. Then I have 1 backup if I get in a slump or need a new look with different alignment. Shockingly, it usually reinforces that the properly fit putter performs better and I need to work on setup and fundamentals if I am having trouble aiming and making short putts with the Edel. Their weighting always seems to produce the best distance control and least 3 putts. I used to keep 2 backups, but 1 was more sentimental as I had sub-30 putts with it. Eventually gave up the dream and sold it off (was a cheap TM).

Shrek74 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I currently have 3 putters, although let's face it, this will likely grown. 1. Original gamer of 20+ years - Carbite Golf DD, Plumber's Neck, 35" 2. Current gamer - Sub70 002 Mid Mallet, Plumber's Neck, 35" 3. Currently Testing - LAB Golf DF2.1, 35", 71* Lie (got from the outlet also on sale at Christmas) We'll see how the LAB works for me once I can get on some greens as I don't have any putting mat at home.

Lol, no no no.. they're all pointed the good way My current gamer is the LAB Link.1 and I don't see anything ever taking its spot. I am tempted to try out one of LAB's mallet putters so I can really experience the tech, but we'll see.

CrazyGolfNut Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I have a total of 4 putters. I sold a bunch of putters last year but I kept my first and second putters; a Bulls Eye and a Ping Anser. Both of these date back to the 80’s. My main putters are an Odyssey Dual Force Rossie 2 and a Rife 2-Bar Hybrid. Over the years I have tried several but they never worked well for me.

RoverRick Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 (edited) I had 6 putters in the rotation until May 2023. Until then I would generally take 2 or 3 putters to the practice green before the round and figure out which worked better that day. Then the LAB Directed Force DF2.1 arrived. Since then none of these 6 putters have left the house and the next time they leave they will be on their way to someone else. LAB only for me from now on.

Kenny B Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I haven't had many putters since I took up golf in 1991. Only 4 putters in storage; one is a Nike Method Converge putter I tested for the Forum in 2015. Gave it to my wife who used it for a few years before switching to a cut-down Cleveland Belly putter I made for her a couple of years ago. My wife also has 4 Slotline putters and her grandfather's Otey Crisman hickory shafted putter in storage.
