Yes! Putters

[microcrayfish]

Any of you out there using these? I'm looking for a new putter and am seriously considering a Yes!. Does the C groove really make much of a difference?

[hamletsdead]

I use the Yes Tracy and the Yes Callie Forged. They are my favorite putters and have kicked my Odyssey and my Scotty Cameron out of my bag.

I was out on Sunday and sank a 45 foot birdie putt with my Callie, and then putted in another 18 footer from the fringe.

yes the c grooves do make a difference

I have a gently used Tiffany for sale. PM me if you're interested.

I just bought my Callie earlier today. I think it's going to be the best golf investment I've made so far. I believe it has better feel and rolls better than every putter I tried even all the newer Scotty's. It's a close neck to neck with the Circa '62 that I tried and it's got a price tag of half of the Scotty. I don't think you could go wrong with it. I can't wait until this Sunday so I can get to try it on the course for the first time.

I had a Yes!. It putted great in the store. It hit GREAT when you hit it perfect. For me an "off" hit would mangle the shot pretty badly. Also, I just could not get the distance right with the club. I *think* it has to do with the way the C Grooves are positioned. It could also be that I had been hitting a Odyssey XG Rossie and was used to the insert. But, I'm just a knucklehead 22 HCP so it's hard to say for sure. I do know that I ended up returning the club and taking a %10 hit at Golfsmith to do so.

I'm not saying the Yes! is crap, it just wasn't a good putter for me. For a lot of others it is working great.

That said, hitting it "right" really made me a believer in the groove technology, so I went and tested a Rife 2 bar hybrid. It has a grooved insert where the grooves run uniformly accross the entire face. I am putting MUCH better with the Rife. Better than I did with the Rossie I used for two years.

Good luck in your search.

I actually prefer blade style putters personally but thanks for the offer. Suppose living 6000 miles over water doesn't help much either!

Some interesting thoughts here. I really liked the Donna that I tried out in a store the other day but it might be a little out of my price range. Luckily the guys at my local golf shop know me well enough to offer to get models in for me and let me try out putters on the course so I might see if they can get a few different models in when they get their next shipment to try some more out. There's a few Rifes there too so might have a look at those too.

I have a Callie model and like it, but here lately it's not been performing up to my standards! I know, I know, it's not the putter.

For whatever reason, my Callie does seem to have a weird sweet spot though. Seems it feels more solid when I hit it slightly off center toward the heel. Anyone else with a Callie get that too?

I have the Tracy model. I love the putter.

I've been using the Yes! Sophia for about a month now and I absolutely love it. I can't seem to putt well with a mallet style putter so I went with the Sophia. I think the club is weighted perfect for me and I am a believer in the C-grooves as I never seem to skip the putts anymore.

I have been using the Tiffany for a couple months now and I think the putter looks amazing. I find each yes! has a different C-groove feel to it, The Tracy II has a larger C-groove face and has a very different feel to it, its a great feeling putter.

The tiffany feels nice as well, just has a smaller face.

I like the looks of the Olivia and Victoria, would love to try these out.

[hawkeye]

Lovely putters - well made.

The C-grooves - yeah they make it roll nicely, I got similar results from Taylor made AGSI+ with theiy 14 grooves. Now I use a putter with no grooves or insert. On the green's I play in general, it makes no difference.

I was going to get a Tracy putter (named after Refief Goosen's wife - Goosen's contract with Taylormade means he can't put his name on other clubs) but the Ping holes more putts :)

[bogeyhitter25]

I've used my high school captains. It's got great feel. I think his is the Tracy, but I'm not sure. Sick putter.

[brandon_mcg]

anytime i go into the local golf store here in augusta i have to pick up the tracy I and hit a few putts with it. ive come close to walking out with it a few times but was able to display inhibition.

[worst_shot_ever]

Here's my little beauty. Her name is Tracy. I lurv her.

[AK jr.]

i use a yes! tracy II as well as a scotty cameron. i love the feel on the cameron and its my number 1 gun. the yes is a solid putter but if you have an bad day on the green then the yes will punish you because you have to hit it right in the center of the face every time to get a similar feel and good distance control. it is a great putter and i find that it is great for slow/bumpy greens whereas the cameron is my first choice for fast and firm greens. its not a terrible idea to keep more than 1 putter on the rotation because different styles can be beneficial for different green types and also you have something to fall back on if you aren't putting well with a certain putter for an extent of time. some people have used the same putter for years and i used to be that way but i like switching when i feel like im losing an edge and its between and cameron and yes for me

Tested out a few and really like them.

Many different types / looks / set ups......gotta be one in the line-up for you.


Really nice wands.
