Deadlydrift Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Call me crazy but, I’ve been using the Kirkland KS1 for about a year and a half now with pretty positive results. I didn’t like how light the head felt at first, it made me feel like the face was all over the place on the takeaway so, I shoved about 18 grams of lead tape in the removable weights on the bottom. That helped but it still felt too light so, I put three strips of lead tape across the sole. I’m certainly not the best putter but, the added weight has helped me feel like I’m more on plane during takeaway and has led to better putting. BLD7, Rob Person and GolfSpy_APH 2 1 Quote Bill C.

Beakbryce Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Gaming an Odyssey 11 S. Cured my yips. Have several putters that I am getting ready to sell. 2 of everything because my wife also wants my putter within 6 months of me getting a new one. I thought I broke the cycle when I bought her a Spyder which she loved and I had no interest in. However, just had to fork over moola because she fell in love with the 11 S.

RRD Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I picked up a Tommy Armour Impact No. 2 Wide Blade after it did well in MGS testing the second year in a row. I have been putting really well with that blade. It will take a special performing putter to get me to change. I am eyeing Evnroll. I was recently using one and Evnroll may be that special putter.

Byrnzee Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I've always loved the look of a mid-mallet putter, specifically on the Scotty Cameron Del Mar. I was able to find one early 2023 off Facebook marketplace for a very reasonable price. It has basically been my dream putter for over 10 years, so I don't see myself switching anytime soon. If I did have to make a change at some point, I'd probably get a Scotty Phantom 5.5 just because I love the look of them.

Ryan Luke Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Hi All! My putter for probably about 20yrs + or - has been a Scotty Cameron Newport 2 & I do love it! When I'm not putting well it's definitely my fault not the putter so I do not go out and buy a new one as I see many others do. With that said I do have a second putter that I only use in my basement on the putting mat that I have because it's very heavy with good alignment aids and I use it to practice my swing mechanics. It is an Odyssey Oworks 2 Ball Fang putter. I have thought about getting a new putter to use in my regular rounds but just never seem to find anything that makes me want to swap out the Scotty. I am open to changing for the right one if I do come across it. I will be putting with both of these on this mat just as soon as the Callaway White Box arrives so I am looking forward to that!

Julius Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 I have several putters over the years, the one I use the most is an EvnRoll blade, which is quite heavy but as I have a stronger arc that is good. I also have a Ping Anser 4. I love both but in my bag most of last year was the EvnRoll. This year I have more time and expect to work both of them more evenly. I want to see if there is a significant difference between the 2.

Steeve Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) Gamer #1. Scotty Cameron Squareback. Firmer milled feeling with a bit more forgiveness than the Newport. Plus the looks are A+. Gamer #2.

Hitnhunt Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Putters? Oh, there's probably about 50 or so around the house and garage. Switch out? Only every other round or so. I'm probably one of the worst club junkies out there. And my "go to" if I think I really need to make some putts? A Pendy face on putter. They're made by a local teaching pro here in the Phoenix area named Brad Butler. Super nice guy, and we talk about various theories about putters and putting. Our local PGA Tour Superstore has putting contests every week, and I've won more than my share with various types of putters and putting styles, but the face on putting has become the most reliable method as I've gotten older. Get it lined up, and there's just not much to go wrong with the stroke. Just underhand roll it to the hole. Rob Person 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prior to the Sacks Parente testing, I was using my TaylorMade putter; which I was fit into back in the 2011 timeframe, the seemore, and a DF2.1. The DF2.1 and reading some putting instruction opened my eyes to believe the whole torque free thing was simply marketing. As a result I went back to my TM and began spending more time on skill development.

Birdieputt13 Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 (edited) Believe it or not, I have a Tom Stewart hickory shafted putter that I inherited from my Grandfather. It has been authenticated by the St. Andrews Golf Company as "most likely" original and was probably manufactured around 1903. I practiced with it for a few weeks and found that I love the feel from a hickory putter. I use it in all Hickory Tournaments and have started using it in regular rounds with my "steel clubs". Like the old Bulls Eye putters, once you get used to the feel, they are hard to put down.
