So I'm thinking of buying one of these putter for myself for Christmas. Rock Bottom Golf has LH versions (I'm a lefty) on ebay for $50 with shipping. I just can't decide between lined or un-lined. My gut says to get the ones with lines but is there some magical alignment at work if I just have the 2 balls only? I guess I don't entirely understand the 2 ball alignment system.  I went to the local sporting goods store today to see what they had to look at and of course the only LH odyssey they had was a blade, of course most of theirs were $150+.

i used to have an Odyssey 2-ball without lines--and found it harder to line up putts, than even with a simple blade with one small line on top.  I tried to draw a line through the two white circles but kind of messed it up, and since then have retired the putter.

So it's completely personal preference, but for me i like a line on the top of the putter.

Driver: Cleveland Classic 270, 10.5*
Fairway Woods: Adams Speedline LP (3 & 5)
Hybrids: Wilson Staff Fybrids 21*, 24*, UST V2 stiff
Irons: Callaway X-20 Tour, 5-PW, Rifle Project-X (flighted) 6.0
Wedges: Cleveland CG15 DSG 52* & 58* +/- 56* Niblick

Putter: Yes! Amy

I have the lines. Love the lines. Wouldn't have it any other way.

I have the two ball. I tend to take the putter back a little inside the line. Putter never worked for me so I switched to a SC Newport 2.

as $ allows

Just ordered the 35" Lined putter. I'll have to have my wife put it in her closet before I get to look at it to keep the suspense going till Christmas. Glad I went to the store today though because prior to going I thought 34" was the standard length but after trying  a few putters I realized 35" was the right length for me (I'm 6'0"). Wish I was right handed though, it would make trying out clubs so much easier.

Congrats on the new putter. Plus 1 for Rock bottom, also being a lefty at 6'0 (we must be twins) I had to grab one of their Yes Callie putters for $38 a couple of weeks ago, great deals can be had out there for sure.

    • _sigh_ so close to red text.  Went away for three days, but didn't do a practice morning-of-departure (Friday) nor evening-of-return (Sunday), so I had three misses, back to day one. Day 1, May 4 2026.  At home today, spent nearly an hour in my practice room, hitting about three dozen practice balls, primarily with my 6-iron.
    • Day 254 5-4 Arms off chest in backswing and downswing. Short swing, pause and then hit.  Hit foam balls. Keeping arching of wrist a focus as well. 
    • I would think of it in terms of time. The time it takes to get the arm angle into a good position to deliver the club with proper shaft lean. Another component is rotation, but that is also a matter of timing. It relates to how the body stalls to give the golfer time to hit the ball. If you have to get 80+ degrees out of that right elbow in one third of a second versus 50 degrees in the same time then you have to steal time from somewhere. It is usually body rotation. That does not help with shaft lean.  I agree in that amateurs tend to make the swing more complicated than pro golfers. 
    • I haven't been able to practice like I wanted and won't for the next week.  1. The weather sucks in Ohio this year. I have been mostly inside hitting foam balls. Just kind of my basic stuff.  2. I woke up last Saturday with a left side rib muscle on fire. If I turned or leaned a certain way it would spasm that almost buckled my knees. I have been taking a break to let that settle. I don't want to get a long term injury. I think I pinched a nerve or just aggravated a muscles.   3. I am going on a mini-vacation to Florida (screw you Ohio weather) with a friend, and rolling that into a work conference I have next week. I will be with out my clubs for a week.  I will be back next in two Fridays to hit the ground running with some warmer temps and better weather in Ohio, hopefully. I would really like to get more out on the course and the range.     
    • Day 580 - 2026-05-04 Played eight holes. Sometimes golf kicks you in the nuts. 😉
