Putting is all about hand to eye coordination. How do you know how to throw a ball to someone 60 feet away? Expensive putters are the biggest joke in golf. It’s an almost flat piece of metal on a stick. I have a lot of gear and I might use a Betinardi one day and a Dynacraft the  next. I don’t think I have a putter I paid over 40 dollars for. It’s personal skill. Some of the big mallet heavy stuff just complicate things.

First off, make sure you try a putter at the proper length.  Cutting a 35”to 31” will not be good...weight will be FUBAR.

Second, what style putter do you like?  I prefer the Anser style and stick with that.  I had a mallet before and it was fine but I prefer the simple look of the Anser style because I can look at Ping, Scotty, Odyessey and find the same look.  That’s something you don’t get with a mallet.

I second going to Golf Galaxy and looking through the used bin.  I would have killed for that $80 Cameron Newport mentioned earlier in the thread.  My current putter which feels so good I can’t see myself giving up is a Ping Anser Redwood that I picked up used at Golf Galaxy for $60 like new.

    • No rush. His blog post (I'm calling it that, because that's basically what it is) is probably from 2019. It seems to be from before the WHS was official. The first time it appears in the Internet Archive is 2021, though. But, I doubt they're crawling the Pope of Slope site all that often. 🙂 
    • At present all I can say is that this indicates a tremendous body of work. Congratulations. As yet I haven't analysed any of your or Knuth's contentions but superficially I lean your way. I am away for a few days or so so will study your analysis when I get back. But suffice to say - an impressive piece of work.  
    • Day 5 (5 Jun 26) - Played in the Friday men’s shootout, solid day for me with an 80 (39 / 41)….recent work on keeping connected with the arms tightened up the shot dispersion both front to back and left to right.  
    • Threw my last 9 holes into the Shot Pattern App (negative bad) Driving: -3.2, Approach: -0.6, Short: -4.5, Putting: -0.1 Good it matches my post round assessment. My intuition was pretty spot on. I need to get a few range sessions in on the tee shots. Too long, too much right-side bend.  I need to pivot better on my short game shots. Lots of flipping.
