Why not go try them all and see what one you like better? Picking a putter based on what someone else says is not a good idea.

I couldn't agree more, you have a very good selection of top quality putters listed, but only you will know which one is right for you.

Yeah, wanna make 14 dollars the hard way?

Hit (x) putts with each, eliminate one.

That sounds so easy, but it took me all summer. I'd usually run out of time (places to be) and when I'd go back to the shop to pick up where I'd left off, there were new candidates to check out.

Yeah, it generally is too good to be true. By doing this, even eliminating one a day or longer, you'll get an idea of what you don't want. Putters are personal, it could take a couple years before you find "the one".

ps good luck, heh~

For the price those Mizuno Bettinardis are going for these days, they're hard to beat!

Used or new PING 1-A putter. Nothing I have used has the FEEL or SOUND!!!!!

You can get a new one for 100 bucks or a used one for a little more depending on where and when it was made.

I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. All great putters.
Personally I'd go with one of the Scotty Camerons but it's all about what feels right to you

I do not believe that brand, the putter your favorite pro carries, the putter that OTHER PEOPLE recommend without ever even seeing your putting stroke assuming they are even qualified to recommend a putter to you, or any of that has anything to do with finding the right putter. I think the process is much more involved than posting a thread on the internet and asking for people to chime in on THEIR opinion on a specific model/brand of putter such as the list of putters you have in the OP. I think what matters is YOUR opinion of the putters in that list, and also how you came toe ven create that list.

This time with a proper introduction (sorry iacas) - my opinion on how to choose a putter:

Burner 15* and 18*
MT 20* Hybrid

make sure you get the correct length. now you know what happens next, you can not blame your putter for missed putts.

The Mizuno is a great pick and great value. I also like the Never Compromise Voodoo Daddy

I almost bought the C-06. Nice putter but not quite what I was looking for. I putted with an Anser for over 12 years, so I would highly recommend that too. I'm not a Cameron fan at all, but any of those putters on your list are quality, so go to the biggest golf store you can find and try them all. Might be hard finding the C-06 at a B&B; store though. I see them used sometimes at GG at my other local shops.

Can't go wrong with the Mizuno Bettinardi C series, especially give the closeout prices that are being offered.

BudgetGolf.net is selling them for $100:

(selection is becoming limited however) Use the coupon code "1overpar" to get $10 off. The deal becomes $97 delivered to your door. Hard to pass up.

I bought the C-05 earlier this summer and like it mucho.

Try out a Rife Antigua before buying a new putter. Aside from custom fitting, nothing has helped my game more. These putters are the real deal man. http://rifeputters.com/products/island/26/antigua/

    • You are not wrong. The shaft and the head together both contribute to the performance of the club. I'd also suggest that they contribute in different amounts depending upon whether we are comparing a driver, an iron or a wedge. (We could argue all day about how much is the head and how much is the shaft... and I would enjoy the argument.) Having said that, in order for a youtuber or anyone else for that matter to completely optimize the club and then hit it in comparison to another completely optimized club is all but impossible. Just one of the many reasons why all club tests should be taken with a generous pinch of salt.  Not only that but even in robot testing there are variables that are outside the areas of control. I've personally been lucky enough to witness robot testing first had. It's fascinating how non-repeatable the results can be. Let me elaborate. With an 7 or 8 iron the robot can land balls over and over again in an area the size of a kiddie pool. However, when the testers moved away from a 7 or 8 iron, the results got less and less precise. Interestingly it didn't matter if they went up or down the bag. With the robot hitting short pitches and even chips, relatively, more variation than full short iron shots. Similarly, long drives with the robot created more variation as well. This is without the effects of wind, variations in the surface and texture of where the ball lands etc...  In addition, this doesn't take into account possible bias, either consciously or unconsciously of the tester. The testers I got to witness (these happened to by Taylormade guys, but I'm sure it doesn't matter), confessed that they could influence the results if they wanted to. They could take two clubs and make either of them "win" with robot testing if they wanted to. They made to the point to illustrate that in their job they had to constantly make sure they were fighting bias and/or putting in double checks, but never-the-less when I now read about any testing saying X club is 7 yards longer, I think back to their statement.  So, if it's that difficult to get really good results out of a robot imagine how difficult it is to get quantifiable results out of a human swinging a club.  Here's a fun test to try. Hit your driver 10 times on a launch monitor and gather the data (You can do 20 or 30 swings it doesn't matter). Now group the data into 2 sets, the odd numbered swings and the even numbered swings. Look at your two data sets. I guarantee that one data set will look "better" than the other. Even though, it's the same person swinging the same club on the same day. But if you just happened to be testing a driver against your driver on that day, Even if you gather your data by switching back and forth between the two drivers you may get misleading results. I've done this test a few times in my life and it's interesting to see how the "odd numbered me" or the "even numbered me" always produces different results, sometimes one will win by a large margin.  In summary, I too enjoy watching reviews of the new clubs that come out, especially drivers. But it is information not data.

    • Something I’ve been thinking about. I watch a lot of club tests, retired and get up way too early, and there’s something I think in my opinion might be being done wrong. They might pick several drivers, could be something different, and use the same shaft so things will be equal. In my mind a shaft might be good in one club and not in another. Learned the hard way, had my best ever driver at the time, G410, and kept hearing about how great the G425 MAX was. Since I sometimes have trouble finding senior shafts we traded heads and the 410 shaft never seemed to work out in the 425 head for me. Wasn’t as straight or as long so I have moved on. Don’t think everyone was wrong about the G425, just think that combination maybe didn’t work for me.
