Anyone use these putters or try them out? I've really been considering picking up the black series i with the insert in it but I fear the lack of long distance control with an insert. I heard that the insert was pretty firm since it's a tour insert but I want to know if I should just get the milled version. Currently I'm using a cheap milled putter but the feel of it is amazing. My problem with it is that the face is too narrow so when you hit the slightest bit off center, it wants to twist. I do love the feel of inserts but I'm afraid of that loss in speed control. Let me know your experiences and what you guys think. Thanks!

I've used a black series I #9. Overall it was a great putter, the insert was soft put I still felt like I was in control over speed distance though not so as much on the 20 foot+ putts. Having said that I ended up with the SC in my signature. I liked the shape and weight of the putter coming from a YES! Sophia, however I just didn't want to take the time to adjust tot he insert (I'm sure I could have) and went with a milled putter. Putters are such a personal thing though so I would still try it out.

i too play the black series #9. to date, its the best putter i've used because its easy to line up short putts. I'm also considering a SC Newport II as back up.

I have the first model of Black Series(metal insert) and I love it. The distance control with it is not an issue. And if you're hitting the ball pure it feels so sweet.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      By GolfLug · Posted

      I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By iacas · Posted

      Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.

      Swing Thoughts & Mental Game

      No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.

      Too Old?

      By RetiredOldMan · Posted

      StuM,  I have, in the past, added a left handed club. (Ususally a 7 iron) However, I usually take a stroke penalty and move the ball to where I want it.  I play for fun and in a pinch can use theback side if my club if I don't want the penalty stroke.    RetiredOldMan,  Terry
