So whats the feel difference with the different offsets in putters? From a full shaft, 1/2 shaft or no offset? I have only hit full shaft offsets so I am not too familiar with the others.

Its really just preference, when choosing a putter just make sure it lies flat on the ground during your swing, I see enough odysee 2 ball putters set up almost 45* upright it makes me want to puke...

I have a Scotty Circa 62 # 3 right now, and my toe is higher than I want it to be. I was trying out the California Scotty's and I love the weight to them. But, I noticed that the Del Mar sat flatter for me than the Monterey, but the Del Mar doesn't have much shaft offset, and I have never played with one like that. But, man did it feel good!

I've been hitting the Adams A7 putters at the golf shop lately, and I'm trying to figure out the difference too. I'm not sure if I want or don't want offset; the models I'm looking at (60,61,65) come in full, half, and 3/4 shaft offset.

Driver:  Titleist 915D2.  4-wood:  Titleist 917F2.  Titleist TS2 19 degree hybrid.  Another hybrid in here too.  Irons 5-U, Ping G400.  Wedges negotiable (currently 54 degree Cleveland, 58 degree Titleist) Edel putter.

I don't know if it is true or not....but I've heard from multiple people that if you have a forward press putting setup/stroke, you want an off set putter. This will help you to square the face to the ball.

Then again..... Phil Mickelson has as much forward press as I've ever seen and he uses a putter with no offset. But I think he's the exception. If you think about it, by forward pressing you are de-lofting the putter face - which I would imagine doesn't let you put the best roll on the ball.

      Day 134 (26 Apr 24) - played Minnesott today, worked with the mid-irons and approaches (especially the 7i).  Scoring was a little higher, but I was focused on making the needed adjustments to the swing to achieve desired distances.

      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.
