Of all the clubs in my bag the putter is my favorite and I switch putters often, not because I blame my game but just because I get bored of one look and/or want a different feel. I feel that in order to lower my handicap, I should commit to one putter or at least one style of putter. So I've tried the following test to help me see which putter(s) really do perform better for me.

Here are the results from my first Putter Test - Has anyone else tried something like this?

Now that is an extensive test. And am I reading everything right? Are you putting both left and right handed? If so, I would think that you would definitly want to stick with one. But I am a beginner, so what do I know?

I wish I had a place where I could practice like that. The best I could do is set up a long felt mat in my bedroom where I hit about 400 or 500 puts with my mallet and blade from 2, 4, 6, and 8 feet. I did this over 2 days right before I last played. My goal was try and figure which worked better for me and to also hopefully eliminate a lot of the ridiculous short misses that plagued me in the past. My results showed me that on judging speed the mallet was better for me, but for accuracy the blade worked best.

Maybe you are just addicted to buying putters? :)

I am :) In fact here's another topic talking about my addiction

http://thesandtrap.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1490 Yeah I putt righty and lefty and from the looks of it so far I am better righty. I plan on doing this test a couple more times to see if the numbers stay consistant.

    • Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.
    • Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.  
    • Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.
    • Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
