Mr_Theoo Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Love the 8802 style and the #9, which I think Wilson and Odyssey do best. However I putt my best with a center shaft style. This still true?

DownInOne Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 In order of best looking to best functioning......At Least In My Hands..... The 8802 Wilson is by far the best looking putter on the market regardless of its uselessness in my hands Just when I thought the 8802 couldn't get any sexier.....I found this matte black 8882.........it even has a sight line so I might be able it hit it but I read an article claiming the sightline isn't on the sweet spot......there's always gotta be something A blacked out Scotty is my next favorite looking and best combo between looks and function. And finally, for the sole purpose of function..... the Directed Force putter is probably the smartest design I have seen in a long while, being that it isn't face balanced but instead it is Lie Angle Balanced. I would love to do a review of this putter and I am surprised other companies have not designed a putter like this already. If they have, I would love to know their reasoning as to why it didn't hit the store shelves. Its not my favorite thing to look at but I love black and I have always wanted to captain the U.S.S. Enterprise. Bill Presse, the maker, is a Wizard and I did get a chance to test this out at the MN Golf Show and I liked it a lot. Congratulations to him for getting this putter in the hands of some pros and on the tour!

Ironclad78 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 I agree that the 8802 is the sexiest looking putter style. The modern version of the truncated George Lowe (Miura KM-008) has been growing on me for sure. I currently have a SC ACVII and Bettinardi SS6, but putt better with my SC Studio Design 2.

pmushock Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 For me, the Scotty Studio Design 1 is my fav, but I go back and forth between that and a old rusty Tad Moore Maxfli TM-5. I feel like I have better speed control with the Scotty, but the Tad is easier to keep on line. They are basically the same shape so I am clueless on the why of this. If Scotty would have made the Red X2 LH I'd have one of those as well. I have a sand blasted TM Rossa Fontana 7 cgb center shafted mallet in my bag at my parent's house. Which is about as close as I can get to the Red X2 in looks. (First Post!!!) Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liberty Ball Markers Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I'm a putter ho... but really just like to refurb old ones and either game them or sell them. My fav is the Scotty Cameron Studio Design 1 and 2. I rescued these pound puppies and they are my current gamers: They are modeled after the TP Mills #3, which I also like to refurb and collect (actually any old tpm's are good to redo and collect!) This #3 from the 80's was beaten - I brought it back to life, and hand hammered the flange and sole. Close 2nd for me is the Ping Zing or Scotty Cameron Laguna - another rescue: Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy http://www.instagram.com/libertyballmarkers/ http://www.birdie-bomb.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
