Same design, different metals, different brands, different price tags.

Which is the exact same as my Lynx. I love that style, but the other models are very wide, and they look too bulky. My Lynx is a shorter blade, and is quite a bit less chunky looking. I like a smaller putter head.

I've owned a number of Scotty Camerons and one Bettinardi over the years but this year I started collecting Ping Ansers and now own seven of them. My current favorite is a G5i that I used just yesterday to drain a 35 foot putt for birdie. That one will be staying in the bag.

Wilson Staff 8882. Same basic blade design as the old 8802. simple heel shafted blade. no weird angles, shapes, graphics, or other distractions.

The heel-shaft excepted, those are the same qualities that attracted me to the Circa 62 No. 1 -

Wilson George Low Original 600 - basically a copy/repro of the Geo Low Sportsman. I have used this putter for 30 years and it is still my main putter. I have made (and missed!) a lot of putts with this old stick.

I have an Anser 2 and a Zing 2 that come off the bench from time to time.

Meaning different feel. Plus the one on the bottom has a good resale value, so when people start talking about price it really is irrelevant.

Exactly right. I always liked the PIng Zing, and had many different ones through the years, ending with the Redwood series. Got hooked on Scotties and found the new Laguna 1.5 clearly superior to the Zing Redwood. Tried to sell on EBAY the lightly used Redwood (back in 2008 when they were a new release selling for $250) for $150, had no takers and ended up trading it in at Golfsmith. Sold one of my more used, lesser Scotties (Circa 62') for $159 buy-it-now to get some cash. Took about an hour to sell.

Do you still have the original leather grip on your George Lowe? What kind of shaft is in there? Mine has a stock Ram shaft, and it's in pretty nice shape, so I wonder if it's a reproduction. I picked it up from a guy working in a pro shop about 15 years ago.

    • On the subject of teenagers in professional tournaments there is a kid (Kris Kim) who is a member of my club in England and is at my old school. He’s 16. He’s playing in the pga tour event in Texas this week. Shot 69 yesterday for T31 and is -2 today through 5 holes. T55 and on the cut line. I really hope he makes the cut. Will be awesome.    His dad I believe is a teaching pro and his mum was on the LPGA Tour for a while. 
    • I have two contenders here that stick out to me: In second place, a putt to win the hole playing the 16th hole at Burnham and Berrow. Playing foursomes and the green has a big bank at the front then a flat bit and then it goes up again to a back shelf. My partner had hit our second shot onto the back shelf. We were 2up at the time and he was being a little wobbly so we didn’t want to lose the hole. Our oppo were conceded a 4 and my partner told me to just lag it down there nicely. 20 year old me meant to do that and failed. I hit it a bit hard and it was definitely going to clear the tier and probably run off the front of the green, but it hit the hole right in the middle and went in. My partner was very happy we won the hole but quite upset at my ability to follow instructions.    Number 2 is my most memorable. I was about 16 playing in the junior knockout at my club. We get to the 10th hole - long par 4 and index 2. I didn’t hit a very good drive, hit my second up about 60 yards short and pitched on to maybe 25 feet. I started walking and I got this feeling. I knew I was going to hole it. There was no doubt at all. I’ve never felt like that any other time in my life but this one putt was a certainty. It was February and the greens had been recently hollow tined so they were in awful shape. I didn’t even line it up. I hit my putt and it bumped and bounced all over the place until it went in the middle of the hole. If I could bottle up that feeling and sell it I’d be up there with Bezos and musk. Mind blowing!
    • It's strange how ONE person can be THAT much different/better/whatever than anyone else.
    • I saw a YouTube review on a bunch of ball brands and the Maxfli Tour X did very well in comparison. I bought a sleeve and found them to be excellent in feel and distance. But I’m a lousy golfer so nobody probably cares about my opinion. 😃
    • There seems to be a lot of buzz around the new Maxfli Tour and TourS balls, especially with a handful of tour pros signing on to play them. My understanding is that the Tour is similar to the Titleist ProV1 and TourS is like the Titleist AVX. Has anyone played them? My main concern is that while I liked the feel and performance of the Maxfli balls of many years ago, I found the paint job on them was lousy. The finish looked a bit faded right out of the box, and after a few holes they had faded even more, and sometimes the paint was actually coming off. I'm hoping to find out if they are using a different factory or improved their paint process.  Opinions, please.
