      Older vs Current Putter Weight Differences

      By iacas ·

      Tiger's putter is < 500g total weight. Good putters tend to favor lighter putters. That said, I'm a great putter, and mine is over 600g. 😄

      Are You a Fair Weather or All Weather Golfer?

      By wetzel1592 ·

      With 2 young kids and limited time to play, if I have golf on the schedule and there’s no lightning, I’ll be playing. I wish I could be a little more picky but time constraints tend to force my hand.

      As a guilty consumer of social media instruction, I really enjoyed the topic on episode 7. I know it has always hurt my game more than helped and I think it all boils down to the potential for misinterpretation.  I know I’ve been to see @iacas thinking I was doing something beneficial and it actually had the adverse  effect. I still enjoy scrolling through some of the instruction posts but have found it better to take notes and ask the professional before trying to implement anything.

      Older vs Current Putter Weight Differences

      By wetzel1592 ·

      My dad had an original Ping Anser that I got refinished. Ping only charged $20 so I figured why not. It’s hard to believe the weight difference between my current gamer (counterbalanced Edel with 25g weight) and the Anser. I’m going to throw a new grip on the Anser and try it out.  I know this is a huge difference and just from a few practice swings the lighter putter doesn’t feel near as stable. I highly doubt it will outperform the Edel but wanted to know what’s everyone’s experience with a lighter vs heavier putter?

      Right - better can mean different things depending on the situation. It might mean scoring better or it might mean closer to a functional swing (which in the moment might be scoring worse).
