I have just put my 004 model on ebay.  It is a good looking club and feels great but I found it hard to judge distance and wasn't making any putts with it.  My last round I switched back to my red x and it felt so natural, I made some putts with it too.  After that round I knew the method just wasn't for me.  I think part of the reason it didn't work was due to the blade style head, I need a longer alignment line like you get on a mallet to help me line up correctly.

I had a Nike Method 004 but I found that I prefer a two-ball putter so I put the Method on ebay.


In my clicgear.gif 2.0 Push Cart and callaway.gifgolf bag are -

I have Method model 005. I absolutely love it!!! Best putter ive ever used. And that's coming from a Scotty Cameron guy… Well, former Scotty Cameron guy… Haha. The feel is awesome! The distance control is very manageable. And all the tech and the forward roll, etc… is no lie. There's no skip or jump off the face. I will agree with a statement above that it is difficult to aim sometimes. But I find a lot of putters on the market difficult to aim.

I do not think that the new Nike Method is as good as the previous ones. There is an obvious price difference between them, but when I tried the new one I did not like it.

In my Ogio bag.

Titleist 910D2 driver, Adams irons & hybrid, Callaway wedges & a Nike Method putter.

And a yellow ball.

I own the 001 in 33" and love it. I like it over the Scotty Cameron's that I have tried. I am thinking about adding a sight line.

I have the Method 001 and I love it.  I feel very confident with it, and it is easy to handle imho.   It also looks great.

Driver: Ping K15 (10.5*), Hybrids: Adams Idea Tech v3 2i, Ping G15 4i (23*), Irons: Callaway Diablo Edges (5-9, P, A, S)Putter: Nike Method 001, Bag: Nike Tour Cart II Shoes: Nike Lunar Control, Other: Cliqgear 3.0 Handcart, Callaway uPro GPS, Sun Mountain ClubGlider Meridian Travel Bag

I have the 002 at 33" and find it to be everything my SC is with a quicker roll. Easy to align & good distance control with a very smooth roll. I will rotate with my SC Fastback 1.5 this year, but the 002 will be the starter.

... Have had many putters {SeeMore, Scotty, and more} - Tried the Nike Method 005 [ small mallet with the "expensive" insert, not the plastic one] - this putter is phenominal.  It immediately encouraged a smoother stroke - really got all the putts in or close - sticker was $299 - seen it for $249 - got it on eBay  [new] for less and very happy.  Good stroking..Tomm

After trying nearly every putter in the market my obvious choice based on feel was the nike method. And i knew that at setup :)

The Scotty compared to the Nike felt clicky to me. With putters its a personal feel that counts and I had that from the get go with nike method 001. Even before hitting a ball with it I felt so good in the hands at setup. And now after so many rounds with it I feel its going to be with me forever:)

The combination of Nike method and Titleist proV1 is hard to beat.


I replaced my Scotty Cameron Platinum Pro with a 34 inch Method blade.  Love it.  Rolls very nicely, balanced well.

I almost bought a Method but found the feel of it to be too clicky for me.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

I tried about ten putters at my local store, Cameron's, pings, etc...method for me was more accurate in distance and lines, just matched me I guess, just out of my price range. I still use a chipshot.com brass blade I got for free during the dot com boom :p

The Method 001 has been the only putter I've liked more than my SC Newport.  I put it in my bag about a year ago along with a new set of irons.  For me, it's the easiest putter I've ever used in terms of distance control.  The alignment dot has taken some getting used to but, for me, distance control has always been my main issue.  I can't say that I hole any more putts than I used to outside of 10 feet, but I have dramtically lowered my 3 putts per round  overall putts per round.

As a side note...the Nike360 app and website are amazing.  You've got to check it out.

    • True.  Scotty is not playing the field (so to speak), he’s happily married (best we can tell), and seems to have the personality to kind of ignore all the hoopla.  The strange thing with Scotty is it seems he can’t crack the code to have the love of the crowd - - he’s definitely cracked the code to winning everything in sight.  Albeit the bizarre situation where he got arrested, but remember how that all went down, the guy reached in and punched him in the face (I believe), and Scotty seemed to take it all very very low key.  Evidence?  Open your eyes, look at the results, look at the trends.  There’s 15 years of evidence! Phil total cowboy?  Hadn’t quite heard it put that way - I guess you’re talking about the gambling?  or the move to LIV?  In any case, a very different type of scenario for Phil.  I’d say that Phil optimized his talent and probably got as much out of his career he could.  If anything, Phil was not so great physically for quite a while, but he trimmed down and extended his career
    • You don't know that for a fact.  You can't even provide evidence that supports the factors you listed out. 
    • Tiger buffing up hurt his career as well.  Tiger could have should have won 8-10 Masters and 100 tournaments.  He started the insane workout pump up buff out craziness whilst hanging out with the military guys, Rangers or Seals?  Hey that’s what he wanted to do, but it definitely hurt his career, especially right during his prime. Same thing with Rory.  He could have should have won several Masters by now. Both Tiger and Rory, they have incredible talent, and their talent helped them to be the best players of their generations.  I’m just saying they could’ve won even more if not for the factors I’ve listed out.
    • Phew... lol
    • Phil M was (is?) was a total cowboy in his day but served him well at the Masters it seems.
