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

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

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.

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

I have a friend who swears by his Nome.

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.

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 MTB Prime and Prime X had issues with the cover being too soft and getting cut too easily. They said it was more prevalent in the Prime than the Prime X which I found odd because that was the exact opposite of my experience.
    • Day 120 - Played 18; much better than yesterday. Miss right now is off the heel of the club, so I need to sort that out. 
    • Today we played Pease Golf Course in Portsmouth, NH. Course was in great shape but my game didn't show up. I will say I pitched and chipped fairly well but almost everything else was very hit or miss. Cost myself a lot hitting an in play drive with pulling my approach shots maybe 85% of the time. Finally figured out I had been swaying most of the round. Only took me until 13 to figure it out. Used what felt like a much more centered turn and the ballstriking improved. 18 tomorrow using a 2 man scramble format. Just looking to contribute. Been a blast though. 
    • Day 22: Hit balls with 7-iron using mevo+ to track dispersion. Was out for a long time after work; 86 balls but the first 50+ were 50% swings focusing on top of backswing feel and then just hitting the ball as a psychic reward. Finished with 20 balls close to full speed. Pretty happy with dispersion and also no horrendous misses. I’m chunking my priority piece out into two separate feels, first and more important is the position/balance at top of backswing which is what I was working on. Once I have that engrained I’ll move to transition part. 
    • FWIW I never really had issues with the previous generation of Snells. But… I'm not sure I played them a ton, either.
