It looks like it could be a transformer!

A quote from Kris
...is that college bball really isn't "lower tier". The better teams have their rosters filled with guys who could play in the NBA. hell, guys used to come straight from high school to the NBA. I really don't think there's much of a difference skill-wise between the two.

Here's more info - http://thesandtrap.com/columns/bag_d..._method_putter The limited release is going to be distributed based off of the retailer's sales, so basically, Nike's bigger accounts will get more of the limted releases than the smaller accounts. If I were you, I'd hit up my local shop. They should be able to get you one, even if they werent initially slated to get any. The limited release models will be made at The Oven in Fort Worth. Good luck with it!!

I don't like it. Too busy.

You're totally entitled to your opinion, and I'm not going to try and change your mind or anything, I'm just curious as to why?

That's kind of a ridiculous statement to make. Especially considering 2 major winners played all Nike equipment this year.

I know it sounds kinda crazy, but think about it like this - I'd say that the percentage of golfers that even know about this putter is much smaller than you might think. Out of the people that do know about it, a much smaller percentage will even consider using a Nike putter for one reason or another. Out of the people that do know about it and would want one, even fewer will shell out $250, because the line of thinking is that for another $50, they can buy a Scotty.

The other reason I say that you should be able to get one without much of a problem is because this past Friday, I was in my local shop getting fitted and ordering my new irons, and I asked about it out of curiousity. The store manager, who was the one doing the fitting, told me they wouldnt be getting any of the limited editions, but if I wanted one, he could get it for me. They just hadnt planned on even requesting any. If you go into your local Golfsmith or GG, and they wont/cant get it for you, check with one of the smaller shops near you. They might be easier to work with. Make sense?

I know it is, and I never said there were any justification to my opinion. It's just a gut feeling. I just can't get over the Swoosh on the clubs.

But I still don't like the look of this method putter. Too busy. And who is going to pay $300 for a Nike Putter anyway?? Why not just get a Scotty or a Bettinardi or even a Redwood PING. I think it'll flop.

I tried a scotty out the other day and I could feel, see, and hear the ball hopping into the air and skidding along the green. For my stroke I think the

4* of loft was just too much (I have a YES! which has the grooves to get it rolling but I dont really like it). This putter would be absolutely perfect for me if it does what it says. It has less loft(2*) but is able to get the ball rolling because of the unique groove system however it also claims to have soft feel. The YES! is similar without soft feel but mine doesn't have the plumbers neck(or whatever its called) which I would get the nike with. It just seems like it should be a perfect fit.

How is it any more busy than this?




Dont get me wrong, I want a Red X bad, I'm not dogging it, I'm saying that it's funny how, because it has a swoosh on it, it's labeled "busy", but it's ok when it's Titleist/Scotty Cameron. As I said before, I'm not going to try and change your mind, everyone is free to game what they want, it's the double standard that's very annoying. That, and the fact that if there's a thread on anything Nike, some feel compelled to hate on it, regardless of anything else.

Ya know what? It's all good. Like Katt Williams says, people are gonna hate, regardless. Can't change that.

True, Nike is for sure legit. Even tiger, the best player in the world, plays all Nike except for his scotty putter. I think nike's putters are great though.

Probably a perfectly fine putter...but it is hideous.

Sez the Mizuno fanboy. Go figure.

The putters will do fine. YES putters and the Rossa putters with grooves do fine, and so will these.

      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.
