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.

I've been using an Odyssey XG White Hot 2-ball all year. I think I'd like something with a softer insert. Not alot of feel on this putter.

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.

    • Hello Golfing Buddies, It has been awhile since I posted but I am the Retired Old Man that asked for advice because I suffered two "T.I.A.'s about switching from playing right handed to playing left handed.  I purchased a Callaway Edge Left handed golf clubs. I changed the grips to oversize grips.  Well, two weeks ago and still at 79 years old, I shot a 44 and 47 on a small course in my hometown.  I am currently changing my shafts from regular flex to Senior flex.  So, you can see' it can be done! So, you other old timers; get with the program! Blessings to all of you. Retired Old Man (Terry Warner)

    • Probably since the golfer has to swing the club back and up. The hands have to move back and up. You can feel them go back and up just by turning the shoulders and bending the right arm, because it brings your hands towards your right shoulder.  The difference is if you maintain width or not. Less width means a shorter feeling swing path so the more you need to lift the arms. Being as someone who gets the right arm bend at 110+ degrees, it's 100% a timing issue. I am use to like a 1.5+ second backswing. It probably should be like 1 second at most. Half a second or more will feel like an eternity. I have had swings where I keep my right arm straighter and I am still trying to time the downswing based on the old tempo.  Ideally, for me, it is probably going to be a much quicker and shorter (in duration) backswing, while keeping the right elbow straighter. Which also means more hinging to get swing length without over swinging.

    • I'm currently recuperating from surgery, so no golf, but have been thinking about this quite a bit. This and the don't overbend the right arm thing. It's hard for me to even pose the position, so I'm not 100% sure, but I feel like it's impossible to have the right humerus along the shirt seam and not overbend your right arm, unless your hands are down near your hips. If the left arm is up at or above the shoulder plane and your right arm is bent less than 90 degrees, then your right humerus has to raise or your hands will get pulled apart. Your left hand can't reach your right hand unless either the right upper arm is up or the right arm is overbent. Is that right? If it is, then focusing on not overbending the right arm would force you to raise the humerus. And actually thinking further on it, if you do overbend your right arm, then you're basically forcing your upper arm down or forcing your left arm to bend. Since (for me at least) bending the left arm too much is not something I think I need to worry about, it means that the bend in the trail arm is really the driving force behind what happens to the right humerus.
