**polodinks** · August 17, 2008

i have my scotty cock-knocker circa 62 model 1 and love it but cant putt worth a shit recently with it...... im really thinking about selling it and going back to my old ping pal..... am i crazy for doing this?..... im going to go back to the course in a day or 2 and use my ping all day and see if i like it better

i had the same issue. had a nike, sucked with it, and went to the 70's Ping Pal and putted well with it. now back to the nike (for a while)

so play a round with the ping. if you like it, use it. but don't sell the scotty. you never know when the ping will go bad

Go with what works best for you. I recently bought a Scotty Cameron Red X and wasnt impressed with it. I ended up going back to my old putter because I putted so much better with it.

I have gone back to my old Rossie 2 while I wait for my Cameron to get back from the custom shop. Some times you just need a different feel.

Putting is about comfort. The cup could careless what the pricetag on that putter of yours was. Go with what works - plain and simple.

Funny how these things happen like that, old school beats new school kinda deal. I haven't had this deal with any of my clubs however... and i have to say im glad for that wouldn't want me to feel like im wasting money.

I'll trade you straight up for my ping pal! (See sig!)

I never sell putters because things change and you might love the putter in 6 month or a year or 2. Its happened to me, many times. If you don't need to sell it for the money, in my opinion its best to keep it.

well as a update i played for the past 2 days and i was pretty happy with my self mostly 2 putted all day......and dident have a chance to mess with my ping

Go with whatever works. If you putt better with a broomstick than your Scotty, use the broomstick. You should find a putter that you are comfortable with, and once the comfort factor settles in, you can really focus on being confident that you are going to make your putts, instead of focusing on your stroke. Good luck!

I went back to my Ping after about 2 month with a Nike. I just didn't like the feel of the Nike. Putting is my weak spot and I didn't need anything to make it worse.
