My name is Kiran, and I'm a clubaholic.

After hearing so much about Yes! putters I went and bought a Yes Tracy II yesterday. I saw it at a local store, it was fairly inexpensive ($140), and I was nailing everything on the faux green in the store.

Today I got to try it out on the real practice green at my course. At address, it looks identical to my SC newport 2. However, the head's a bit heavier and it doesn't feel quite as well balanced as the SC. The grip is a stunning white, yellow, and black number from Winn which feels pretty nice. The putter also comes with a nice white headcover.

The important part is how this putter rolls the rock. Long, short, and everything in between I was amazed. The putter was super accurate and did everything I asked it to. I really believe in the concentric rings on the putter face which grip the ball and get it rolling rather than skidding much better than a plain milled face. While this isn't a uge deal on short putts, it makes all the difference in the world on long ones.

I think these putters are definatley worth a try. I'm definately taking the Cameron out of my bag for now and if the Yes! performs as well on course as it did on the putting green, I've found a new putter!

Which model did you get? They seem to have only one mallet, and as a mallet guy (not by much, I just think they're easier to line up), that's not so good. Their mallet didn't have a nice looking alignment aid (a triangle?) either... so which did you get? The Tracy II?

Yeah, I got the Tracy II, I'll edit my post and make that a little more clear.

Marilyn almost qualifies. Victoria's a mallet. The other two, they're part of the new genre of "freak mallets." All those weird MOI type putters. Ick. I may be non-traditionalist enough to go with a mallet, but not so non-traditional that I want to look down a putter with holes in it.

I'm with you, I'm much more of a traditionalist, although I did have great success with the

Odyssey 2-ball , and the MacGregor V-Foil is all the rage on tour these days.

I'm a bit of a traditionalist too, but let's face it, I think if we all found something that worked incredibly well and shaved 5 strokes off our average, I think we would all say "tradition be damned"...

What about the Valerie, Hannah and Olivia? I'm in the same boat as you not wanting to see something that looks like it belongs in F1 (Taylormade I'm looking at you) when I putt. I had a Yes! Valerie for a while, it was nice but I figured out that I prefer blade putters.

think those are newer models since the original postings 4 years ago

I just got the Tracy II - mallets broke my heart so i've gone back to the blade. 5 rounds in - i'm delighted. Cost me EUR 108 on ebay from the States - they'r'e retailing EUR 179 here. Just got standard lie and length, getting it fitted next week.

Looking forward to rolling in a few putts with it!

The Olivia model is about as mallet as they come.


Sets up very simular to the old Zebra putters.


Great stick....I love the fact that I can adjust the weights (came with wrench and 3 sets) as things change on my home course....greens will hopefully begin rolling pure and fast again very....very soon.

Rock Bottom Golf has a few models for sale, $89.99 + shipping.

That's a good price for a good wand.

A buddy gave me an old ProGear C-Groove II yesterday, he won it a few years ago at a tournament, called it a "Yes! knockoff". It is like the original Tracy Yes! putter. I am now in love with the way this thing rolls.

    • When does a 'non-conforming' club become just another piece of metal or plastic?
    • Day 353: mirror work again today. Working on the same stuff - wrist twist and shaft lean. 
    • This is my second year playing golf, I started last season but have always struggled with a slice. I've tried multiple things to try and fix the slice: Closing the face. Rotating my right hand out or clockwise in the grip. Keeping the club head low in my back swing. Focusing on a straight swing path. Trying the straighter arms like Bryson D. (as seen in the videos above) Trying to not let me hips get too far ahead of my down swing. Trying to keep my shoulders down until after I've made contact with the ball. Etc. I recently changed to the straighter arms which has helped me adjust away from such a drastic slice. So it has helped a bit. Before that, I was trying to keep the club head low in the back swing and this was the most helpful in correcting the slice, however it drastically removed power and distance in the strikes and would even sometimes result in a hook. About a couple months ago I had a single lesson with my driver and learned some helpful things, but have since struggled to perform what I learned well. One of the things in the lesson was to keep my shoulder down more in the the down swing until after making contact with the ball. This would help the slice a bit, sometimes drawing the ball. To even it out, I was instructed to rotate my hips a bit earlier in the down swing. What I have noticed however with the earlier hip rotation is that it's really hurting my lower back a lot. Since backing off on that it's helped not injure my low back as much. I believe my main issue might possibly be the swing path, being a Pull Slice.   See above, was mid typing when you posted. I have never watched Moe Norman's swing to be honest. I have never measure my hip rotation, but I'd like to hear your thoughts on that after you read about my hip rotation / back pain issue.
    • Two questions… Are you trying to swing like Moe Norman? What's your hip turn like? Have you ever measured it?
    • I've been Playing Golf for: 2 years My current handicap index or average score is: 18 Index My typical ball flight is: Slice/Fade with a driver and FW. Generally straight with irons, varies some days left or right. The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: Driver slice. Videos:
