I had a recent post about deciding on my scotty cameron or a 20 year old ping zing to play with in my matches, and i decided on the zing for now, but i dont really want that old of a club, i know its a putter and its not like you need to replace them and if it goes in who cares but if i could find a newer putter with similar feel to it then that would be great, doesnt necessarily have to be a ping either any brand putter. Its a 34" ping zing with a clear insert on the face that says PING in it. Thanks in advance guys

I was looking around online, and i found the scotty cameron laguna 1.5 putter, EXACTLY what i wanted, same shaft style same head shape everything, is it a limited edition putter tho because when i checked on ebay some were going for a few thousand. I want to be able to demo it before i buy it but ive never seen it before anywhere lol

My bag:
Driver: 909D2
3-Wood: 909F2
Iron: AP2 3-PW
Wedges: Vokey 52, 56, 60Putter: Scotty Cameron Newport 2.6 35"

If you want something very similar, have you looked at the Ping Zing 2? It seems to have received good reviews.

I'm just curious why you're stuck on a Scotty. I don't have much room to talk, as I have two of them, but there are a number of excellent putters that aren't going to cost you thousands of dollars but will play very similar. Then again, if money is no object, go for it. If it's selling for that much now, then there's a good chance you can sell it for that much if you don't like it. I think you'd know after the first round or two with it.

What do you mean "in my matches"? Aren't you going to use it all the time?

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Because basically all of my golf right now takes place in high school matches, i get some lessons on the weekends at an indoor golf facility but pretty much everything is a match for me right now lol. And for ControlJunkies post, putting has a lot to do with confidence for me, and i feel confident with my scotty. I feel like i should make every putt stepping up to the ball with my scotty, but with the length and weights and shaft style i guess it just doesnt work together lol, my zing i have a better stroke with the proper weighting and shaft style length etc. but im less confident, that laguna 1.5 has the best of both worlds

    • Day 36: back to some mirror work tonight. Need a bit more forearm roll in my feels to help with the shallowing. 
    • _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.
    • Day 254 5-4 Arms off chest in backswing and downswing. Short swing, pause and then hit.  Hit foam balls. Keeping arching of wrist a focus as well. 
    • I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers. 
    • I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.
