Hi Guys

Im after some advice on a new putter!! Ive currently got a Scotty cameron studio style newport. After years of frustration on greens pushing putts right ive decided to change! Ive been told that cos im left eye dominate i shouldnt get plumb neck putter and should have straight shafted one! Any truth in this at all?? Also was told by another person that i should be looking at centre shafted putter!!

Can anyone clear this up?

Two putters ive looked at are:

Rife Trindad centre shafted

Taylormade Ghost daytona

Any other recommendations welcome!

please help!!!

THANKS

Sounds to me you are not releasing the putter blade. You are taking the blade inside on the backswing and then keeping the blade open on the forward swing,  Try a face balanced putter(doesn't matter if it is heel or center shafted) and work on straight back and straight forward with a pendulum action. If this doesn't work,see thread on belly putter.

I agree with MLF look at a face balanced putter, it will be easier for you to square up the putter blade at impact

google Marius Filmalter before you decide,  50,000 putts analyzed says a lot.
