I have it narrowed down to three putters and I cant make a decision.

I tried the Nike Ignite 2 #3 putter

And the

Odyssey White Hot #9

http://www.golfgalaxy.com/galaxy/pro...6B1CX6JVTJ27C2

I liked both putters a lot and can't make a decision!

I also found this one on rockbottomgolf.com

What is the difference between that and the one I posted from golf galaxy? They seem the same to me. I wish I could see the grip on this one as it is the only one I did not see in person.

That's the "Tour" model. Different finish, different insert (little bit firmer). I like the regular White Hot #9 the best of the three you listed.

Alright I will have to go see if I can find that one in a store and try it out I guess. I like the finish on the tour model better then the regular. I pretty much ruled out the Nike now so its between the tour and regular model of the white hot. Can you change the inserts? (not familiar with how they work)

I'd say the Tour, seems similar to the other white hot...but come on, its the Tour one lol

Yeah haha I think thats what I am going to go with. I just like the color better and it doesnt seem like there will be much of a difference.

There's actually quite a difference in feel between the two.

Is the only difference the firmer insert? Cause I think I might actually like that better. I don't think I am going to be able to find the tour model in the store to give it a go.

The Tour is darker, heavier, firmer, has a white allignment line, and a thicker sole at the rear making it harder to scoop up your ball off the green. Last week I picked up the White Hot XG #9 and I just love it. Perfect weight, balance and feel for me. Plus I prefer the black allignments over the white. With all that said I still prefer the Scotty Del Mar but $80 is easier to swallow than $300.

I was actually wishing the White Hot XG was a bit heavier so I think I am going to just order the tour and hope for the best. If I don't like it I am sure I could return it or sell it for a similar price.

id go with the tour, gives better feedback imo, regular xg almost feels to soft to me

Got to try the tour and decided to go with that one, I like the looks and feels a little bit better. The XG is a bit softer but its not a drastic difference.

    • Day 8 (28 Jun 26) - Worked with face position at address and overall setup - open/neutral/closed - and setting up for resulting shot shapes - using 8i and hard foam balls.  It was abbreviated as the thunder began to rumble. Got in about 20 swings before calling it. 
    • Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
