Hi everyone,

I want to buy a new putter and came across the "Black Series". Has anyone tested them allready? I like the look of #1, but it is so expensive... 299€!

My personal preference is still Studio Style Newport 2 compared to Black Series. Scotty is slightly more expensive than black...

Both great putters. I don't change my putter for a long time so I guess I would rather get a good one that I really like before I get one.

I hit them a couple of different times at the local golf shops and thought that they were really nice putters, had a great feel to them. It is expensive, but if you like the putter, it is worth it considering since it is the club you use most often, just make sure you get fitted to get the right length.

Also take a look at the Ping Redwood line, I also liked this club at the store.

Got a putter fitting today and the one i bought is the Odyssey XG White Hot #9. Not the amazing look of a scotty or black series but better price and much better results for my strange way of putting

Odyssey XG's are good putters for the price. Gives a nice "click" when hit well. The grips are nice as well in my opinion. Head a little light for my taste... I don't know if #9 is heavier than the #3 I tried... Overall a great putter.

The feeling of the Black Series is awesome, but i tested them with some older lake balls (the ones i use on the round ) and i dont like that feeling so much. I think you should play a high quality ball with the BS and thats sth i dont do.

XG #9 is heavier in the head. It is a toe weighted blade / mallet mix, and good for my hand position (slight forward press)

I putted around with one in a golf shop so I didn't get to see it roll on real greens but the feel was pretty awesome. Still, at $285 (that's how much this one was) I would think it's going to be hard for them being generally about the same price as a Cameron.

    • I apologize on behalf of… idiot men. Sorry about that. Next time, tell the guy to shut up. 😛  Day 553, May 8, 2024 18 holes from the whites with @rwolfe. Windy AF today, but hit some good shots. Slid back a little from where I was the previous two days, but… I can get it back. Made a pretty nifty birdie on 12 from some pretty odd places. 😄 
    • The angles look fine. Get as much light as you can on the area — you want the highest shutter speed you can get. Less blur.
    • Snap @ Tour Spoon! Birdied 11 yesterday. Hit a poor iron ,stopped on edge of bunker , pitch with my lob wedge landed about 6’ away and went in. Only 12 & 14 to go, long par5’s into the prevailing wind. Might be waiting a while although I did have about 15’ on 12 after the birdie on 11, didn’t miss by much.
    • Tested the Maxfli TourS yesterday. Compared to my former ball, the Titleist AVX, I got an extra 10 yards off the driver and half a club (5-7 yards) off the irons. The combined extra yardage from the driver and fairway wood meant that on par-5s where I usually hit an 8-iron third shot, I hit a PW. It's just a smidgen softer than the AVX and seems to spin well. Some of the reviews indicated a low ball flight, but I did not notice it. I also did not observe any problems with the paint quality, which was an issue with previous Maxfli models up to and including the U series.  My previous round I tested the Bridgestone E6, a two-piece ball with a different cover. It was OK; the same distance and feel as the AVX but with less spin. 
    • Sad tale.  Both the A's and Raiders.  IMO, cities shouldn't be building stadiums for MLB/NFL teams.  But that's the world we live in.   DAY 3:  30-min range session with irons and wedges.  Working on follow thru -- no hooks! 🙂
