aguybadatgolf Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) A friend of mine plays with a an odyssey backstryke sabertooth. It sounds absolutely horrible. We have a friend that started playin in the last year and the first time he heard it he jumped at the sound and started giving him a hard time for how bad a putter it is. That’s how bad it sounds even to an untrained ear. I’ve never rolled it but I can’t imagine it feels that good.

J5hort Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) Oddly enough Oddessey White Hot #1 and #5 putters were included in a few newly acquired sets I received. I played with the #1 a bit and was pushing everything right. Caveat is that I was very rusty and there was a slight bit of play in the grip. I have not tried the #5. I get the akward feeling tho. Swapped to Taylor Made Nubbins and was more comfortable. Pretty simple putter. I'll try the #5 for a few rounds but may end up letting them go.

hoppman Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The worst feeling putter for me is any putter with a metal face. I prefer putters with a soft insert. Everytime I try a milled or unmilled face putter, I hate it, they all feel too hard/harsh. Some Wilson putter I bought years ago was the worst I ever felt, also tried some Toulons and didn't care for them.

Rob Person Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I got a silly good deal on a new raycook silver ray mallet putter. We did not get along at all, but I was convinced to make it work. I did well with the stock bag set blade putter I had, but told myself I needed this one. The RC was like smacking a 2x4 against a brick wall. Eventually (after months of practice) I was able to make it work for me (somewhat/mostly).

Mr_BogeyPro Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 I have really only used about 4 putters in my 25 years of golfing. TaylorMade Rossa Daytona 1 CBG Odyssey White Hot #1Odyssey Bristol Model 77 (old school vintage putter I picked up in a thrift store) And my current putter - Odyssey OG 7 The worst was the White Hot #1. I hated the offset of the putter and never felt comfortable on long putts. The Bristol is a great putter I enjoy for fast greens.

VernL4 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Worst putter? Well... Since you asked... My brother works with cattle. He had a custom putter made. The shaft is a bull pizzle and the head is a generic two-way head like what is used at Putt-Putt. It's terrible to use. It's quite a conversation piece, though!

mpatrickriley Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Played for a while with this Odyssey R-Ball: Loved it for alignment. It had a version of the White Hot face, which I don't always dislike. But the hollow body resulted in a putter that sometimes would sound just fine, and other times would create a ringing ping at impact.

Guest-0 Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Far and away the worst "Marshmallow on a stick" is anything with the White Hot Insert!!!
