Is there anything to changing putters to shock the system with regards to feel and distance control? 

You know, after spending a good part of last year working on putting and then just being HORRIBLE with putting distance doesn't help the confidence. So, looking at the equipment side of things like every good golf should do. 😛

Sometimes.

Sometimes the issues are just with the golfer. Sometimes a different weight profile can help. I'd say it's more the former than the latter.

I don't know if there's anything you could very literally quantify. But I have 2 putters. My usual gamer and a back up. Every now and then I feel like I need to put my gamer in "Time-Out" for a while. I may or may not putt better with the back up, but I always feel like a get a little boost when I go back to my gamer. ... Not sure that makes any sense, but in my smallish brain it seems to work. 

My bag is an ever-changing combination of clubs. 

A mix I am forever tinkering with.

    • Day 35, June 8. Before leaving for work this morning (yes, I'm posting this quite late relative to the practice), I spent 15 minutes practicing at home, into a net.  This time, it was primarily 9-iron (full swings), with some UW (full and half) and a few 6-iron.  
    • Day 73: just some mirror work today. Working on feels for being open and getting the front shoulder down. 
    • I'm liking this. Finally getting down hands in front of my trail leg pocket consistently at A6 with much better clubhead position (relatively not as tipped out). I can really pressure the shaft through impact with good face control  from this position and stay in balance. Won my first one v one march 5&4 against a 4 hcp who routinely drives it 35-40 yards past me in the men's club match play . Frustrated him with some solid iron play and air tight putting.   
    • Day 279 6-8  Worked on low point control skills work tonight. will be doing this for a few weeks. Tonight was just trying figure out how to get low point forward.  No ball.  
    • Day 8 (Jun 8 26) - Stayed the drill but added two additional irons (7i, 8i and 9i) - using Divot Board and hard foam balls - focused on tempo and purposed pause at the top….noticing how open the club is marking the board when I try to kill it and how much more square (and better distance) when I focus on these keys.
