I wish people would stop asking stupid questions..

if you want a putter thats not an insert putter, and your going to buy from a store (aka not buying a slighter, byron, etc that are all custom order). you really get Mizzy, Scotty, or Rife, maybe ping these days.

If anyone else made a putter that worked for me as well as his, i would use it, but none of them do, so i do use them.

Look on any tour really, people who are under other companys contracts use scottys..why? because they work.

Personally the Callaway XG hott saber-tooth is the best I have ever used

^Probably because he loves Scotty Cameron.

The best putter is the one that puts the ball in the hole most consistently for you, and you alone. For some its a Scotty Cameron, others a Bettinardi and for others still, its a cheap a** putter they found in the second hand shop.

I'm of the opinion that Scottys are not worth the money. If I was going to splash big bucks n aa putter it would probably be a Bettinardi.

Scotty is a good putter, no doubt, but that doesn't mean it's good for you.

Give the guy a break. If you didn't want to answer a "stupid" question, you shouldn't have posted. Putters are feel clubs. Up until I picked up my Rife 2bar hybrid, I had a $45 Dunlop LoCo putter. It was the best I had. Just go check some out. Try as many as you can. Its basically THE most important club in your bag. If you can't get the ball in the hole once you're on the dance floor, does it matter how quickly you get there? As far as Scottys. . .Never used one. Not even demo'd. Its probably a great custom balanced putter, but I think there are other choices out there that will do as good or better, depending on who's using it. I've cut at least 4 putts a round with my Rife. Best score improving club I have.

    • I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.  
    • Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

    • Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
