[EZ Swinger]

I saw this on their website and it looks sweet. I saw the release is feburary 1st 2010 but it said limited release november 1 2009. Does anyone have any idea how to get one on the limited release. Thanks.

Heres the putter:

Here's more info - http://thesandtrap.com/columns/bag_d..._method_putter The limited release is going to be distributed based off of the retailer's sales, so basically, Nike's bigger accounts will get more of the limted releases than the smaller accounts. If I were you, I'd hit up my local shop. They should be able to get you one, even if they werent initially slated to get any. The limited release models will be made at The Oven in Fort Worth. Good luck with it!!

I don't like it. Too busy. Plus, I can't take Nike Golf for serious, sorry, but I just can't help it.

You're totally entitled to your opinion, and I'm not going to try and change your mind or anything, I'm just curious as to why?

That's kind of a ridiculous statement to make. Especially considering 2 major winners played all Nike equipment this year.

I know it sounds kinda crazy, but think about it like this - I'd say that the percentage of golfers that even know about this putter is much smaller than you might think. Out of the people that do know about it, a much smaller percentage will even consider using a Nike putter for one reason or another. Out of the people that do know about it and would want one, even fewer will shell out $250, because the line of thinking is that for another $50, they can buy a Scotty.

The other reason I say that you should be able to get one without much of a problem is because this past Friday, I was in my local shop getting fitted and ordering my new irons, and I asked about it out of curiousity. The store manager, who was the one doing the fitting, told me they wouldnt be getting any of the limited editions, but if I wanted one, he could get it for me. They just hadnt planned on even requesting any. If you go into your local Golfsmith or GG, and they wont/cant get it for you, check with one of the smaller shops near you. They might be easier to work with. Make sense?

Ok thanks for all the help. Im going to make sure i ask golfsmith and Golf galaxy soon. If not I can always ask the pro shop at my course. Thanks again.

I know it is, and I never said there were any justification to my opinion. It's just a gut feeling. I just can't get over the Swoosh on the clubs.

But I still don't like the look of this method putter. Too busy. And who is going to pay $300 for a Nike Putter anyway?? Why not just get a Scotty or a Bettinardi or even a Redwood PING. I think it'll flop.

I tried a scotty out the other day and I could feel, see, and hear the ball hopping into the air and skidding along the green. For my stroke I think the

4* of loft was just too much (I have a YES! which has the grooves to get it rolling but I dont really like it). This putter would be absolutely perfect for me if it does what it says. It has less loft(2*) but is able to get the ball rolling because of the unique groove system however it also claims to have soft feel. The YES! is similar without soft feel but mine doesn't have the plumbers neck(or whatever its called) which I would get the nike with. It just seems like it should be a perfect fit.

How is it any more busy than this?




Dont get me wrong, I want a Red X bad, I'm not dogging it, I'm saying that it's funny how, because it has a swoosh on it, it's labeled "busy", but it's ok when it's Titleist/Scotty Cameron. As I said before, I'm not going to try and change your mind, everyone is free to game what they want, it's the double standard that's very annoying. That, and the fact that if there's a thread on anything Nike, some feel compelled to hate on it, regardless of anything else.

Ya know what? It's all good. Like Katt Williams says, people are gonna hate, regardless. Can't change that.

[EZ Swinger]

^^ Totally correct.

P.S. Nice quote reference

I like the looks of the Method, I would of picked one up, but I couldn't wait another month to pick up a putter so I went with a Never Compromise X-Ray Blade

True, Nike is for sure legit. Even tiger, the best player in the world, plays all Nike except for his scotty putter. I think nike's putters are great though.

Probably a perfectly fine putter...but it is hideous.

Sez the Mizuno fanboy. Go figure.

The putters will do fine. YES putters and the Rossa putters with grooves do fine, and so will these.
