I would like to go on the record and say that I have had my Method 001 putter for a few months now!! I am prepared to site this forum to all those on the course that will now be telling me that I jumped on the bandwagon...LOL.

The putter is awesome in my opinion and I would like to think that there is at least some percentage of Tiger's decision to go with the Method is associated with the great performance of the putter.

Whats in my Tour Cart II bag:

Driver - 09' Speedline 9.5°
3W - 09' Launcher
2i Hybrid - 10' Launcher DST3i Hybrid - 09' Launcher with ACCRA AC85 M4Irons (4-PW) - 10' AP2 with Dynamic Gold S300GW - 10' 54° CG15LW - 10' 60° CG15Putter - Method 001

Isn't he playing with a different ball now too? Maybe that is also part of it.

That is exactly what I was thinking....he went to a lower spin ball so maybe the feel off the face is less or more? He seems to be missing the shorts ones he never misses so I thing a change is needed. Hell I have gone thru my share of putters but came back to my old fathful BC101 recently and it was the best move I ever did....I tested the Method Putters out at Golf Galaxy and I didn't care for them, too heavy IMO but maybe he needs that help slow it down....hell who knows!

I picked up the Method at the beginning of the golf season this year and I couldn't be happier. Took a solid two weeks of testing putters at golftown and I kept on coming back to the method.

Hopefully it treats Tiger well.

I wonder if the Method putter is going to get as much heat as the Scotty's for being pricey.

You don't have to live with the kind of garbage a rag like the Daily Mail spews out. Read a proper newspaper instead.

I don't read the Daily Mail. I searched the story and found this article. I read a newspaper that bases its articles on fact, not opinion.

I doubt it. No one ever mentions the Ping Redwoods, the pricier Odysseys or Mizuno putters when the ever-present "Scotty Cameron is overrated" threads pop up.

      However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

      Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
