I putted around with this club the other day and felt like I pushed everything. It would take an alignment / setup change for me to put this in my bag which I'm just not ready to do yet. Maybe over the winter season I'll try it out again.

Went to the golf store at lunch...picked up the ghost, drained the first 20 footer...picked up a Scotty, drained the first 20 footer...picked up the Rossie, drained the first 20 footer...after that I was only consistent with the Rossie (model that I currently use). So I am glad I got that out of my system.

The putter is unique looking and easy to align, but I was not crazy for the feel (even putting Pro-V1s).

...bought one and like it-sets up nice for me and feels well balanced. I noticed that some of the shafts were bent slightly different. I recommend that you compare them against each other to find the one that suits your eye.

Played with one of these at the store the other day. While I think it looks awesome on tv, I thought the shape was a bit clunky in real life. I was a bit disappointed but I think the blade version is out soon, the white is neat imho.
I also thought the Odyssey backstryke putter was even worse. Really I odd, my simple mind couldn't deal with it.

My buddy just picked one up. It is a little light compared to my Rossie. We shall see. One of his comments was "I can three putt with my old putter, and it wouldn't have cost me anything." He needs to practice with it as he brought it right out to the course bypassing the practice green.

Tried the corza ghost briefly. I did like it. The balance is a lot better then my odyssey 2-ball. Only problem was that the lie was too flat. Does Taylormade offer custom fitting on their putters ?

I'm a high handicapper, but find the putter is difficult to get a good feel for. Last week I hit a 25' putt with it, then would fall short on 8' or hit too hard on shorter putts. I tried by friends Ping Anser 2 and felt I could control it more with distance. I do like the white paint and lines which help me line up my putts, the problem is feel.

Bringing this one back...anyone else use it for most of the season?  I was testing it at the store the other day and found it super easy to align.  The roll was good and it felt pretty decent.  It did feel a little light, especially since I use a 33" putter and the head does not have adjustable weight.  I am not a Taylor Made guy at all but I'm thinking about giving this one a shot to start the season...

    • I was wondering the same thing, but haven't heard anything about an explanation.  Seems it almost had to be...
    • Ive missed some Rory wins in the last couple years including the Players (again) last month. this one feels so good. Congrats Rory on being only the 6th golfer ever to win the Grand Slam.     
    • Appreciate your responses—seriously. Agreed - Rory's overall play from 2015–2024 has been elite. Twenty wins, constant top-10s, and staying in the top tier of strokes gained stats year after year is no joke. That only makes the major drought more puzzling, not less. And yes, he’s come close—Carnoustie, St. Andrews, LACC—but that almost makes the argument more interesting. When you’ve got a guy that good, who keeps putting himself in position, why hasn’t he sealed the deal in the biggest moments? I do think his transformation post-2014—adding noticeable muscle, changing his physical profile—might’ve altered his swing tempo, feel, or ability to stay loose under extreme pressure. Not during Thursday or even Saturday—but on the back nine on Sunday, when the mental and physical margins get razor thin, especially at Augusta. Is this stat meaningful?  From 2016–2024, Rory lost strokes to the field on Sundays in nearly half of his major appearances, despite being dominant Thursday through Saturday. That pattern suggests it’s not just bad luck or getting beat—it’s a recurring issue with closing, under pressure. It’s tough to measure pressure in a spreadsheet. And Augusta especially punishes any uptick in tension or loss of touch. I’m not saying “getting jacked” is the sole reason for the drought—but looking for subtle shifts that could explain why a generational talent keeps coming up just short in majors, I think it’s worth considering. And OF COURSE - he finally got to the mountaintop, in extreme, dramatic fashion.  Maybe, as others have said, this will equate to cracking the code and going on a major run for the next 5-10 yrs?
