Yes! Tracy II

*gas_can* · 10:07 pm

My name is Kiran, and I'm a clubaholic.

After hearing so much about Yes! putters I went and bought a Yes Tracy II yesterday. I saw it at a local store, it was fairly inexpensive ($140), and I was nailing everything on the faux green in the store.

Today I got to try it out on the real practice green at my course. At address, it looks identical to my SC newport 2. However, the head's a bit heavier and it doesn't feel quite as well balanced as the SC. The grip is a stunning white, yellow, and black number from Winn which feels pretty nice. The putter also comes with a nice white headcover.

The important part is how this putter rolls the rock. Long, short, and everything in between I was amazed. The putter was super accurate and did everything I asked it to. I really believe in the concentric rings on the putter face which grip the ball and get it rolling rather than skidding much better than a plain milled face. While this isn't a uge deal on short putts, it makes all the difference in the world on long ones.

I think these putters are definatley worth a try. I'm definately taking the Cameron out of my bag for now and if the Yes! performs as well on course as it did on the putting green, I've found a new putter!

Which model did you get? They seem to have only one mallet, and as a mallet guy (not by much, I just think they're easier to line up), that's not so good. Their mallet didn't have a nice looking alignment aid (a triangle?) either... so which did you get? The Tracy II?

Yeah, I got the Tracy II, I'll edit my post and make that a little more clear.

I count mallets as anything face balanced, they've got several mallets, the Emma, Victoria, Natalie, and Marylin.

Marilyn almost qualifies. Victoria's a mallet. The other two, they're part of the new genre of "freak mallets." All those weird MOI type putters. Ick. I may be non-traditionalist enough to go with a mallet, but not so non-traditional that I want to look down a putter with holes in it.

I'm with you, I'm much more of a traditionalist, although I did have great success with the Odyssey 2-ball, and the MacGregor V-Foil is all the rage on tour these days.

I'm a bit of a traditionalist too, but let's face it, I think if we all found something that worked incredibly well and shaved 5 strokes off our average, I think we would all say "tradition be damned"...

I really want one of these...I have a sophia and its amazing but Id like to try a more modern design like this.

Funny you mentioned it.....my YES putter has bumped my Scotty out of the bag for months now.

What about the Valerie, Hannah and Olivia? I'm in the same boat as you not wanting to see something that looks like it belongs in F1 (Taylormade I'm looking at you) when I putt. I had a Yes! Valerie for a while, it was nice but I figured out that I prefer blade putters.
