My sister-in-law bought two bags of golf clubs for some reason. One was a woman's set she actually thinks she'll try to use. The other bag was some ancient men's clubs with an old Ping Anser putter with one of those fat grips. I can't remember if it was the original, two or three, but maybe she'll let me mess around with it on the course if we get another decent day.

I currently roll with a Ping Sigma G Tyne H. It replaced a Callaway Two Ball that was  15 years old. The Ping was the first putter I tried out that rested better than the 2 ball. I’ll not be changing again any time soon

I use a Ping Redwood Anser and a Tyne 4.  I prefer the look of the Anser but the balance of the Tyne.  There is currently a battle for the top spot.

My favorite Ping putter was the Nome 355 adjustable. Nice and heavy with a smooth feel.

I had a Redwood and gave it to my son. He still plays it.

What’s weird to me is how Ping claims the Tyne 4 that I have to be strong Arc yet it has the same toe hang the Anser.

The TM Spider Tour doesn’t claim any particular arc but it is the same as the Tyne and a lot of people love it

I play with a Ping Anser 3 , it is brass I believe. Came out in 1981.

I liked it better than any of the mallet style putters I tried, I have a wristy pop kind of putting stroke so it works for me.

I currently have two Ping Heppler Putters, the Tyne 3 and the Tomcat 14.  Both are fantastic putters, and have the adjustable length shafts for adjustability.

My first putter was an Anser 3 that was in the bag that the guy who introduced the game to me picked up at a garage sale and gave me. I now play with an Anser-style Edel.

I have a Ping Karsten Anser 2 that sits in the corner.   Many years ago I was fitted for it by a guy that used the Ping mobile app from his phone!   It has 0° loft.   Maybe that's why it sits in the corner.

I’ve used the mobile app and it was dead on.  Zero loft is odd…

Another interesting is it from Ping… according to their fitting guide, if you use a Pistol grip on your putter it can turn a putter for “straight back, straight through” to one that is “slight arc.”

My Edel has 1° of loft.

Scottsdale TR Anser 2. Pretty sure it's defective, sometimes right, sometimes left, and then it leaves 'em short too.

    • The Rules of Golf are not simple and whoever said they are is being disingenuous. Here are some examples: If a ball is "not found" in a penalty area but it is known or "virtually certain" that it is in a penalty area, is it not lost therefore penalty relief may be taken, which means either drop in the penalty area, or within two club lengths or take back on the line relief (if red penalty area) and it's a one stroke penalty?? Yet, the rough is not a penalty area, so even if you know it's somewhere in the rough it's just rough and not a penalty area so it's two strokes??  Is that logical? Now here's another thing. We have a lot of woods at our course and there are red stakes at the borders. (Not all of them.) So, the woods are therefore a penalty area, no? If you slice a banana-ball into the woods and it's not found, it's virtually certain it's in the woods, so again, you drop at the edge of the woods and it's a one stroke penalty. Yes? No? Maybe?  There's also a rule somewhere, I believe, that says if a penalty area doesn't have a color marker, then it's considered a red penalty area. Again, what about the rough? The logic isn't quite there. It's hard to argue with those who just throw down a ball regardless of where the hell it went missing and they give themselves a one-stroke penalty. (Except for Out of Bounds...that's pretty clear-cut. with the new "Local Rule.")  
    • Day 253 - 2025-06-10 Got some good work done due to a cancellation from someone's kid getting hoof and mouth disease. Like it's the 1710s. (I kid, it's quite common among younger kids, somehow.)
    • 100 players IS a nice turnout.  Congrats.
    • Really happy with the backswing length. I found it if I just feel the weight shift right. Loading into the right leg, and feel all internal rotation of the hip. My backswing just really shortened up.  I have to keep working on the hand path and club head path. A big pause helps. If I turn, I just steepen the path. 
    • First tournament since my trip to Brazil. My short game saved me but not enough. Tied for 3rd in the B Flight with a 76 gross/71 net (7.2 differential). We had a decent turnout with 4 flights of 25 players.
