Putters

[jguzz28]

Has any body tried the Ping Redwoods or the Odyssey Black Series? I've been saving my money and want to spend it on a new putter. Any input is appreciated.

I haven't tried them yet but in my opinion Odyssey is the best putter out there, and the black series' could be the best putters made by them. The i#7 looks insane.

My dad has an odyssey black series putter and although it looks amazing, I don't really like the roll. I much prefer my yes putter. Rife also makes great stuff.

I prefer blades like the zb or anser of the pings or the #1/2 of the odyessey

and im not like looking at the Black i series. I like the feel and control of a metal face

I got a new putter recently, and as you can see in my sig I went with the Yes! I tried the Ping Redwood Piper and really really liked it (didn't want to spend that much money though). I also tried a Rife putter which was really nice too. If money is no problem then you won't be disappointed with a Redwood but I would recommend you try a Rife and Yes before spending your hard earned money.

i have hit both the redwoods and the black series i liked the black i 9 it was my second choice redwood with the third but i also tried the mizuno bettinardi and it was my favorite but dont buy something just because someone else tells you to. Putters are the most personal club in your bag so just roll a few with some putters and buy what you like, i was expecting to buy a scotty but the i liked the mizuno more.hope this helps.

I'm a big fan of the the Odyssey Sabretooth.

My girl's father has a Odyssey Black Series i #1 and he loves it.

The thing is though that I'm a lefty and they almost never have lefty putters to try, and if they do it's not the right one. I can putt righty and get the feel and am pretty good at it, but it's not natural. My setup is different and my swing is a little different. I've tried other Ping putter and loved them. If I do go with the Ping I've never hit the zb, my favorite. I'd have to order through my country club as a special order and try and maybe return. I just don't want to return...

First post; Hi everyone.

I got the impression the Op didn't want an insert since the redwood is milled and the black series (no I) is the milled line from Odyssey. I'm in the same boat as the OP; a Lefty hunting Easter Eggs in a right handed world... I found a Redwood Anser that I could try lefty (really nice), but there's no one I can find in Memphis, TN that has a left handed Black Series #1 which is the one I really like from hitting the right handed versions. Since I was coming from a Ping Isopure 2 insert putter I didn't want to shell out for the high end milled putter until I was sure I'd like the steel vs the insert (past the really liking the milled steel sound in the store ). I just got a used Nike unitized Leo for $45 including shipping that is doing a good job showing me that milled is the way to go for me. The feel of the Nike stick is a bit harsh but it gives good feed back and is nice & heavy, I'll use this until I can try the Black Series in a store and then I'll order the #1 or the Anser.

He quoted you because thats an insert putter, which I'm not interested in.

You cant go wrong with a scotty and right now you can probably pick up a used studio selct for $140.
