Upgraded from my Wilson 8802 to this fine putter, I tried just about evey Scotty style there was and for some reason the Newport 2.6 felt right. I like how the putter is weighted..Anyone else use this putter? On the course I get alot of different reviews about the putter...both good and bad.

I was looking at this putter...
I want to get it... but just don't want to drop the cash for it yet.
I was reading more reviews on it.
Right now I am using a Ping G5i, Odessy 2Ball center shaft and a Sabertooth.
I really want to get the 2.6 and be done with all this putter stuff...
I figure if I get the best... I can just forget the rest and concentrate on one putter and one stroke...

Gimme your your review on that putter

To each his own... just find one that fits your hands (and stance), feels good to you, and one you have confidence in. I use the newport 2.5, and love it. Putters are very personal.

    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
