What I wanted was a straight up putter 90 degrees from the ground. What I had was a blade head on a broomstick shaft.  So rummaging around I found a sabertooth putter head. With ninety degree butt end. So I heated up the blade spun that off and fired the saber tooth on the broomstick.  But I’m now illegal.  So heat up the shaft and bend it to eighty degrees or get a kink whatever comes first.  The kink happened.  But I think eelll I know she’s a one of a kind. I’m trying it out tomorrow!

Quick measurement here was about 6-7°, so just make sure it's actually at least 10° off from vertical.

That should be easy enough. Most putters are 70 degree.  Long putters 75. I hope I’m there. But my luck I would probably be a few degrees short. Eye balling it from the top the end is about 8 inches away from vertical with a ball.

    • Day 24: did a stack session. Worked a bit on downswing feels during breaks. 
    • Day 444 - 2025-12-18 Light day of hotel room work. GEARS Summit v2.0 today. Good day.
    • Day 38 (18 Dec 25) - got out in the backyard with grandson this afternoon.  We got into a little game of pitching the ball from about 25yds to a target point just off the asphalt lane behind the backyard.  Goal - just clear it with a quick hop and stop.  Focused on using the wedge swing motion I was talking with the course pro yesterday….smooth and thru just bruising the grass.  In addition to a concentrated focus on technique, it also called for a quiet mind locked in on target point.  Rehearsed this with both the 50° and 55° wedges.  
    • I listened to the Shaun Webb one about the swing coach app. Sounds like a great thing and will (hopefully) be very useful for me. I do think the hosts are underestimating where AI could be in a few years. Right now it's just regurgitating stuff that it has been told or it has scrubbed from somewhere else and a human guiding things will be quite a lot more helpful than just the AI, but it's going to keep developing and it will reach the stage where it's figuring this stuff out on its own. Time will come when it will have you do a TPI style screen and take various height/arm length/leg length etc. measurements, have you tell it some history and your time constraints and goals and what not and it will watch a video of your swing face on and DTL and it will know exactly what you need to work on. 
    • I found it entertaining, but the announcing was lousy.  How did the measuring on the final shot start with Rory being closer and being told he won, and then with no explanation it turns out Scottie won?  Weird.
