Did Scotty Knockoff one of the best designs ever? Designed by Frank Thomas the former technical director of the USGA. I own one. Decide for yourself.

Where are the photos?

Nope.

There's only so much you can do. The TM Spider putters have been doing a similar thing as well - weight ports towards the back corners.

I don't think there is much originality when it comes to putter design - people take what others have done and put their own "improvements" into a design to make it their own.

Offtopic:

Personally, I think it's a travesty when I see one of these hulking designs in the hands of a high school teen - unless they have some type of mental or physical challenge, these designs are crutches for those who are typically older or yippy.

Aside from them both being ugly, and having rear weighted ports, it certainly is not a copy.

TaylorMade RBZ 5 & 3 Fairway Woods

Cobra Baffler T-Rail 3 & 4 Hybrids

Edel Forged 48, 52, 56, 60, and 64* wedges (different wedges for different courses)

      I honestly believe if they play longer tees by 300-400 yards, closer to or over 7,000 yards, more rough, tougher greens, women's golf will become much more gripping.  BTW, if it weren't for Scottie killing it right now, men's golf isn't exactly compelling.

      Day 542, April 26, 2024 A lesson no-show, no-called (he had the wrong time even though the last text was confirming the time… 😛), so I used 45 minutes or so of that time to get some good work in.

      Yeah, that. It stands out… because it's so rare. And interest in Caitlin Clark will likely result in a very small bump to the WNBA or something… and then it will go back down to very low viewership numbers. Like it's always had. A small portion, yep. It doesn't help that she lost, either. Girls often don't even want to watch women playing sports. My daughter golfs… I watch more LPGA Tour golf than she does, and it's not even close. I watch more LPGA Tour golf than PGA Tour golf, even. She watches very little of either. It's just the way it is. Yes, it's a bit of a vicious cycle, but… how do you break it? If you invest a ton of money into broadcasting an LPGA Tour event, the same coverage you'd spend on a men's event… you'll lose a ton of money. It'd take decades to build up the interest. Even with interest in the PGA Tour declining.
