I purchased a Metal X #9 several days ago from a dealer in Dallas. I read the pre-release reviews and was anticipating finding the perfect putter. As soon as it arrived, I went to the local putting green to give it a try. I may not know much about golf clubs, but I do know when a club just does not "feel" right..like this one. I just could not get comfortable over the ball.

Perhaps it is just me, but the ball while solid off the face, seemed heavy compared to putting with my urethane 2-ball. I'm a "croucher" when I putt and like I said, maybe it's me.

I'm very interested to read what experiences others have had..

Regards

    • Day 47, June 22.  After work today, I spent 20 minutes in my indoor practice room, hitting about as many balls.  Slow, as slow as I could, 6-iron swings, same priority piece as the past month. 
    • Day 291 6-22 full, faster swings, focusing on low point, missing towel. Recorded some face on and dtl. Practicing full speed changes is something I wasn't doing enough. 
    • Day 2 (22 Jun 26) - used the clip the tee drill today - focused on picking the tee and then collecting the divot.  Hit a few hard foam balls later in the session.  
    • Club of the week, my hybrid. Stripe show on every shot. This one was probably the best. About 240 to the green. The ball was on a severe upslope. I hit it just off the back of the green (like 1-ft. 
    • That will sting for a long time. Had all the momentum in the world.  The on course heckling of WC a bit over the top. IMO, that may have even galvanized him. Kinda like RC. He may have picked up some sympathy too. So boo to the boos. I can't stand him (and it's not just the incidences) but I think when punishment outsizes the crime, the tide tend to turn. He has stuck to "I've earned the hatred" narrative. Smart kid.
