I've been using a Daiwa putter for the past three years since I started playing. Now that I'm getting serious about golf, I'm taking a couple lessons and updating my very old clubs. Has anyone used this putter and tell me if it's worth it to update and get something a little newer like an odyssey.

I'm still pretty new to the game so i don't know too much about how to go about purchasing/finding the right putter. In fact, I've never even tried another putter besides the Daiwa and the most I've been told about choosing a right putter is that it has to feel right in your hands and when you stroke the ball with it. I'm fine with this Dawia pro balance putter, but I'm not super confident when I get up to putt that eight to ten footer and I don't necessarily like how it feels on impact compared to some fo the softer faced putter I've tried a bit in pro shops and the like.

Anyone have any experience on this putter and advice on hwo to go about choosing the right putter for you?

Thanks

I have two Daiwa putters; I have the pro balance 6511 and a DG-250. I like them both, but you are correct about the pro balance it does have a clicky sound to it, this might change slightly depending on what ball you use. All in all Daiwa makes a good quality putter it is not as popular as Titleist or Odissey but it is a Japanaese company that has awesome quality. I will also say that it doesn’t hurt to have a couple of putters, sometimes you lose confidence with one and using a new one helps with that. Also will say that practice is the best thing to do to boost confidence specially with putting.

    • I think if you saw Rory in person, like my wife and I did at the US Open in Brookline, you would think he was kind of thin and just looked fit like a runner. He was not bulky at all. 
    • It's been a while since I practiced. Injuries compounded last year and I could play but I didn't want to make anything worse with repetitive stress so I shut down practicing basically in early summer. Just kind of getting back into things now and I'm not surprised to see I've regressed a bit. Hitting the ball well enough to get 8 GIR yesterday but the misses can be really bad - tops and toe shanks. Just settled right back into the constant problem areas in my swing, mainly the wrists/club position at A4 and not recentering properly. Going to focus on getting solid contact consistently back before anything else.
    • One made a topic here about how Rory would never win a Masters… last Thursday afternoon! 🤣😜
    • I’ve called out the terrible “jacked” takes from the outset. He’s not overly jacked.
    • The first one in almost 60 years who isn't named Tiger Woods. 👍
