Looking for an affordable new putter

[sshashid87]

right now i am using a 5 year old dunlop putter that i got when i was 13 (just to fool around with on one of those fake practice green things) and i just dont like it very much anymore...i can never seem to line up the putt correctly (it is a blade style putter)...i am looking for something like the odyssey white hot/steel 2 ball putter, but i cant spend $150 right now on a putter, as i am looking for a new driver as well...does anyone have any recommendations for a good knockoff/clone that plays nearly as well as the odyssey? thanks for your advice, you all have been great in helping me these past few weeks

i'm not real keen on the newer putters as im pretty much in love with my cameron newport2. but before i invested in a scotty putter, i used the odyssey whitehot #4. it has a really soft feel and i liked it a lot. im not sure if they are still selling these but you can bet they're cheap and if you can find a used one in good shape you might want to give it a shot.

sshashid87,

I'd look into buying an old Ping Anser or Odyssey gently used on ebay. Shouldn't run you more than $100 in great shape. Take it to a shop to get fitted and you will be in business!

If I were you i'd just go to a big golf outlet and putt as many different types as you can. Once you know how you like it ballanced (face for me), and you know the style (blade/malott short/medium/long) you may want to have someone there to make sure your eyes are in the right place over the ball. I think you should be able to get fitted for a putter but you may have to pay extra for that. Once you know all that info, I am sure you can find a sub $80 putter that fits your needs. I just picked up a $39 putter and it is doing it's job just fine.
