Well, I just picked up a very nice used SC Circa 62 #2 and I have fallen in love. I think the Marxman is going to go up for sale before too long!

Of course they'll claim that. It's called marketing. Three out of four Sand Trappers agree!

Yes! Golf is located in Colorado so I'm going to drive over there sometime next week to get fitted for a new putter. Not that there is really anything wrong with my Cobra Melbourne now, but there's a decent deal going on at Yes! because of the place I work at so I figured I would take advantage of it since I like their putters.

I need hard fact from users (that's you guys) not from Odyssey Golf. My putting definitely needs more accuracy as I often missed only a few inches from the hole. There's this big demo day coming in couple of weeks and I'm thinking of replacing my 2-ball putter with Marxman mallet. Any suggestions?

I use a Ping G2i C67 and I really love it. I've always thought that the center shaft is a great thing when I am really putting well and the construction overall is topnotch. I'm going on my third year with it and there isn't really a mark on it. The cover is a little iffy and the grip needs to obviously get replaced, but that's standard. One con I guess is that when I miss the insert it is a much different feel than the insert and I lose some distance. But I really recommend Ping.

Goolie BGS 33. Its a real small company based in Southern California. Its a cool story how I got it though. My friend got that putter in So Cal, and he won a junior tournyment while using it. The company, hoping to get some publicity, sponsered him and actaully made him a signature model with a signature color. He gave me his old Goolie putter, which is actaully really nice, and got his new signature one. He actaully doesn't use that putter anymore.

1st post on this forum!

I've got an older Odyssey Deepface Rossie 2 and I like the dampness of it, but I don't know if I'd benefit from a more responsive putter.

Well, I've never held one but from the pictures of it, I think it looks like and probably feels like Scotty's Newport. Is it true?

    • I played in an outing a few years ago. The course was wet, and it was windy. We all did bad enough to reward us with a PCC of +1 (If I am remembering this correctly). So all of our differentials went up 1.  So, if that score is part of my best 8 out of 20. That means I am getting 1/8th of a differential improvement. For you to get a PCC, you need enough people submitting their score for handicap during that day. Let's say you were the only person who was submitting the score for handicap, odds are you are not getting a PCC.  Which is fine, because no handicap system can be that nuanced. I don't think you'd want it to be. Still, my statement is correct. It takes into account weather and abnormal difficult conditions. 
    • I’ve been rather surprised how my original question relating to the logic behind “differential vs course handicap” elicited the responses expressed on this thread so far. I suppose it shows that there are many who have given this subject a lot of thought. I personally like the current system for the same reasons stated in the post by saevel25 and it works very well in our league. I just needed to get the reasoning/logic clear in my head so I could explain it succinctly to those who had questions. Regarding the ongoing discussion, the only tweak we make is only the scores made in league competition count. (We don’t use GHIN, we do the calculation ourselves.) The only additional thought I had is perhaps the powers that be can come up with a method, when doing the differential calculation, of giving greater weight to the rounds played more recently than those from 20 rounds ago. I’ve been testing this with an idea I had similar to the way colleges calculate GPA’s based on credits offered by different classes, but honestly, the complexity it adds to the calculation isn’t worth the trouble as any change made has proven to be inconsequential.
