This is on my local craigslist, and a quick google image search doesn't show me any putters that match this back. I know there was a series of x+blade putters, but this one doesn't seem to have a prefix. Is this even legit or is it a knock off? I would pick it up for the price if it is in fact a legit old ping putter. I have a putter I love so this would just be for funsies. Thanks in advanced for any info. Cheers.

Looks like the old 85029 model. Not rare but a nice Ping putter. $100 tops.

He claimed rare. Only wants 25 for it. He's close, so I might go take a look at it tomorrow if it is still available.

  • iacas changed the title to Old PING Putter Question

$25 for an old Bronze putter is a good price.   Damage free without modification.

Be better if the putter has the original shaft and grip ( std 35'/36' ).  The grip won't matter much if you're going to change the grip and play it.

Sweeter if you don't have to pay shipping for the putter.

I would call up Ping to confirm on the putter model and year of production before heading over.,

If you e-mail Ping a photo like that, the tech people can often identify it.

I sent them a photo my circa-1973 Ping Pal. The crew confirmed it was authentic, but they couldn't determine batch due to primitive numerals.

    • I played a hole that looked just like that at Full Cry at Keswick Hall, down near Charlottesville.  Its a Pete Dye design, but clearly this hole imitates the work of some older architects.  Golf Club Atlas suggests there's something of Langford and Moreau in the wrap-around bunker. After my Ohio trip, and a recent visit to the Gettysburg area, I'm up to 321 courses, with at least one additional planned for October.  A long way behind @jsgolfer, but still a lot of fun places.
    • I get that if I do a couple swing today at my home course, and later in the week at my house the decibel readings could be totally different. The surrounding environment of both are totally different so the reading are likely to be different. But for one session only, the current one with the same environment from start to finish, if my normal swing produces 90 decibels as a base line, I should be able to test other swings in order to find one that produces more decibels and expect it to be faster than the base line. I look at this the same way as I work with my PRGR. With 7 iron at home, my average ball speed is 115 but at my home course ball speed is around 120 (same ball, same intent. I guess this is because at my home I don't hit that hard down on the ball to prevent injuries). So.. when the other day I tested a new swing and averaged 122 at home I knew that at the course it should be around 127 and It was almost there at 125.   My question is.. if the environment is the same from swing A to swing B, could I compare their speeds by comparing their decibels? Not the exact speeds but witch one is faster?   
    • Guess? Make a spreadsheet. 😄 
    • My best guess is under 100 so I need to get out more. Still trying to play all that Wisconsin has to offer and there are a lot of great ones here. Checked Blackwolf Run off the list this year and Sedge Valley. Blackwolf Run is brutal. I have to get to Sentry World and The Lido yet around here at the top of the local list. So many places all over the country and world I would love to go to though.  Will have to pick a top ten maybe at some point and try and get to them.
