Anyone else use this putter? I picked one up today on sale, because I absolutely hated my Itsy Bitsy Spider. I couldn't make any putts with it, so I wanted to go back to a blade style putter and see if the extra feel would help me out, and this one was cheap.

I absolutely love this putter. It was an immediate improvement over the Itsy Bitsy Spider (for less than half the price). It has such a soft touch, I think I'll be keeping this one for quite a while, and drop some strokes on the green!!!

I recently tried the Cleveland Classic heel shafted that resembles Phil's putter.

I thought it was an exceptional value.
909D Comp 9.5* (house MATRIX OZIK XCON-6)
Burner Superfast 3 & 5 woods (house MATRIX OZIK XCON-4.8)
G15 Hybrid 23* (AWT shaft)

I tried one. I didn't really like it after the first couple "honeymoon" rounds. If I hit it anywhere towards the toe it was terrible, for me. Had to hit it from the alignment mark in towards the heel or I'd get a bad roll.

Not necessarily the putter's fault, as many seem to like it, but just didn't work for me.

I've tried out the number 1 putter....I thought the ball came off the face really hot. I'm really interested in trying out the new cleveland classic bronze series (same putter, bronze heads with inserts) to see if that helps out the feel for me any. None of the stores around me seem to have any of those in yet.

Kind of late to the discussion,

But I bought a Cleveland Classic putter a few years back to replace my Odyssey White Steel # 1. My Odyssey had the ball coming off the face, just too hot.

I tried a Cleveland classic # 1 at local NOrthway 8 golf and loved this club. The face is soft, yet responsive. I compared the cleveland against every ping and scotty cameron in the building and still prefered the cleveland. And for $69 (and I had a $25 gift card) how could I go wrong. I replaced the grip with a winn mid-sized and never looked back.

The only issue I have is the club feels alitte heavy for a 34". However I have been unable to find a putter with such a soft feel, for the comparable price!

In my Grom:

Driver-Taylormade 10.5 Woods- Taylomade 3 wood, taylormade 4 Hybrid
Irons- Callaway Big Berthas 5i - GW Wedges- Titles Volkey  Putter- Odyssey protype #9
Ball- Bridgestone E6
All grips Golf Pride

The Cleveland Classics are great putters.  Theyd be a great putter at any price but the fact that they are so inexpensive is a huge plus, IMO.  Ive owned a few Cleveland Classics: a CC1 BRZ, CC2 Platinum and a CC3 Platinum and they were all good to me.  If this X-Ray Tau doesnt work out, I will likely end up with another CC1.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

      Do Upgrade Shafts Provide a Significant Performance Gain?

      By WUTiger · Posted

      For someone with a very consistent swing speed and ball strike, upgrades may improve performance. For everyday golfers, probably not. I'm a rather odd player. I usually get best performance from basic pro or tour heads, but with lighter stock shaft from the model's standard driver set up. (Yes, current EXS is an exception.) When I get a full driver fitting, I usually try a couple of modest upgrade  (not super magic) shafts. Most of the time upgrade gives a couple of extra yards, or 10 yards less. Remember this about stock shafts: They are matched to a particular driver model to fit the type of player likely to adopt that model. Also, most OEMs offer a variety of stock shafts in their drivers. Test for which one works best. And, the final decider...

      Hybrid Advice

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Uh, seeing you're having trouble with hit-and-miss performance from inherited clubs... Get Fitted! IF the 910H pair don't work, swap them out. Also, only two degrees separation in loft is not much. You might consider a 4W (much more reliable than a 3W) plus hybrid. This would give more distance separation than two Hs. For hybrid, get one you can hit... Maybe a more benevolent 4H. Quite often I try to brand match my bridge clubs (FWs and Hs), and my irons and wedges... but not always. Whatever works!

      5 Wood or Hybrid

      By WUTiger · Posted

      Like others have said, get fitted. Since 2011, I have played some combination of 4W + 7W. I had a Cobra 3H and 4H a couple of years back, and would swap out the 7W for a 3H in cold months (keep out of cold wind, and rough thinner for wayward drives.) The 7W matched up with yardage often with 3H; the current 4H goes almost as long as 7W, but has a lower trajectory. 4H also bumped out 4i in last bag redo; I learned to hit stinger with 4H so that's my driving iron on tight holes with shallow landing area. Again, a side-by-side test will tell you which way to go. If 5W or 3H is meh, keep the 7W. Also, are you looking to replace the 7W with a 5W or 3H, or add a second bridge club (5W or 3H) to your bag?

      Workout Before or After Playing a Round of Golf (2022)

      Makes sense and aligns with other literature. Static stretching, especially for longer durations, can impede performance in strength and power activities. I would not want to do like hamstring, quad, and calf stretches then go immediately sprint. To me that sounds like a terrible Idea. I would rather start off walking, then jogging, then running, then ramp up to sprinting.  To me, static stretching isn't even a warmup activity. I like the term warmup; you want to get some exertion going before the activity.      a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; }

      Where Is Your Next Golf Trip Going to Be?

      By jsgolfer · Posted

      Going to Florida for the usual February golf trip, and with our current weather, that date won't get here soon enough. Heading to Augusta GA for the Tuesday Master's practice round, will definitely get some golf in while I'm in the area for a few days. Hope to be able to catch up with @coachjimsc if he's around. Then it's back to Scotland first of July.  Playing 7 new courses, can't wait for that.  Then somewhere after that is the Rhode Island CC Member-Guest and then my normal October golf trip to Myrtle Beach.
