Anyone else play TM Rossa Daytona 1? I just got one recently and have to say that i just love it. I feel that the odyssey is a bit squishy feeling, while others have too much solid bounce to them. The Rossa line has a great mix of both worlds.

Also, what makes a Scotty Cameron so great/expensive? Is it basically reputation or is it actually worth $300

Your just paying for the name, although they look nice, i can find 100 other putters that feel the exact same if not better.

I can say the Yes! Putters feel so much better. for half the cost.

The Ping Anser G5i is what I have. It feels very similar to some of the Scottie Cameron's...and like Dent said, you can get it for half the price.

You are paying for the name mainly-however the materials to make the putter are probably a bit expensive. Also the MOI on Scotty putters are very high.Help mis-hits for sure.

Scotty Camerons look great - if looks are your thing, and you can afford it, they're the Rolls Royce of putters.

I prefer to hole more putts, more often.

Can't go wrong with Pings - great prices on the Karston series, i10's are nice too. Redwood too, if you want to spend Scotty Cameron type money on them. As for Rossa - you could do far worse with 100 bucks.

i used a TM rossa once for one round and i didnt care for it mainly cause i like to use a 33 and my friend was trying to sell me on his 35. no bite.

scotty 2 hotties are expensive, and have been since tiger won with it years ago. tigers dominance + titleist name x beautiful craftsmanship = good lawd dats alotta moneys!! i have a new studio select and wouldnt trade it for the world though. the look, the feel, the grip and craftsmanship is awesome. i will enjoy owning and playing, and practicing with this thing for years to come.

I liked it a lot. The finish is beautiful but is prone to scratches.

I ended up getting a used Cameron, instead. I was looking for a Mizuno Bettinardi Black Carbon but they didn't have it in my area.

I have a quite a few of the better putters, two Scottys, several TwoBalls, Bettinardi, but the Rossa Monza Spider is WAY Better, in a class of its own. I now have several rounds under my belt with it and I'm making birdies and saving pars, that putter is not coming out of my bag, fantastic product.

Have total confidence now, leave a chip or a lag short, no problem, whether I make the putt or not, I feel like I'm going to make it which is a large part of making a putt.

    • Day 332: worked on my grip while watching pasta boil. Then did some mirror work later at night.
    • You start pushing forward at P2. You start visibly moving forward at P3. Waiting until the top is way too late, yeah.
    • 100%. I've been guilty my entire time golfing of trying to fit everything imaginable into the .25 second downswing. Sometimes I think it's partly influenced by my backswing length and that if things were slightly longer on the way back, they'd be better synced up on the way down. I also kind of lack a transition. Was doing the practice swing drill today a decent bit where I was feeling like as the club got to the top, the feel of the weight was shifting me forward and initiating the fall into the lead leg. I loved this drill before for this reason and because I need to stop thinking of the golf swing as backswing and downswing.
    • The bold is very late.
    • Angle isn't perfect. Just found my TST alignment stick, so will make sure video angles are better in future videos. Focus right now is lower body and lower body only. If I make a single post here for the foreseeable future about anything NOT lower body focused, I need to be slapped (I will make an occasional note on unrelated stuff I might be seeing). It's not perfect by any means, but there is a decent bit I like about this swing. Lower body is definitely better than it was pre-TST meetup instruction. There are some things that are tough to see I think I'm doing better like where pressure is going into the trail foot and keeping that trail hip internally rotated. Need to keep feeling those. I think I do my best work when the trail leg keeps its flex on the backswing or at most loses a degree. Keeping the flex (but obviously not adding any) seems to help feel like I'm loading the right glute and to keep the hip internally rotated. Not totally sold on this though. I think my work on adding flow during the TST COVID-19 lessons really helped even though its been quite some time. Shift -> rotate -> shift -> rotate. I just need more out of my hips. It's not drastic, but it's everything. I think it will help sync up a lot regarding my swing and more power to boot. Unrelated note: I hate my negative spine angle.
