Utilizing an Inertial Navigation System (INS), the DiXX BLU can identify the putter's face position in relation to the ball at impact and immediately displays the information on the vibrant color LCD. Additionally, a Micro Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) monitors several key factors of the swing motion including path and hand vibration levels.
All of the information can be collected into usable data (personal statistics) that can be analyzed to correct bad putting habits.

* Analyzes and tracks the three key elements of a successful putter swing: Path, Impact Position and Face Angle
* Includes Computer Module and USGA-approved Playing Module
* The DiXX BLU collects data and stores the statistics so the user can review putting habits and trends
* User can choose either straight-back-straight-through putting path or arc path
* User can select Pro Mode or Standard Mode depending on his/her skill level

I am really curious if this is worth the $75. Anyone have REAL experience with this device? On paper it looks like a great buy but if the display/device is gimmicky then it isn't.

This "training aid" would be ineffective for most people. It shows you data on how you would perform with that putter and not your gamer. Their are too many variables involved for this gadget to be effective. It was a good attempt by Adams but a big failure. The original cost was probably for the R&D; portion.

First I have no experience with this device, so I trust you and your opinion more so than my perceptions.

With that said though, how can path, impact position and tempo only pertain to one putter and not the other? I mean, my path/tempo/impact position are not specific to only one putter but almost certainly are swing characteristics that would apply to all putters (allowing for small exceptions to the rule). So I guess my question is what other variables are there that make this putter ineffective as a training aid? Is it just junk or what?

Its not total junk but just doesn't mimic your own putter and that alone makes it a huge variable. Weight and putter style are a couple of examples what may factor in as variables.

After my post I realized that it woud be an issue if the putter head was different (i.e. training device is a mallet, gamer is a blade) etc. I can see that being a issue.

I want to buy this but then I don't. I like the idea mostly....

If you have the spare cash, go for it. Who knows it may improve your putting. If it doesn't work out I'm sure you can flip it to someone else who is curious.

It's not as bad as you make it out to be (your stroke tends to be awfully similar regardless of your putter, especially when you just practice it occasionally), and b) you can use the putter as a putter.

But your stroke might be a little different. Not a lot, but a little.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
