new putter

[carpediem4300]

right,

Im currently gaming a taylormade rossa ghost mallet,...and well,...i hate it

I have no feel, no feel for distance control, it feels heavy, clumbersome, weird,...im pretty sure i bought it cus it was white and pretty,..DOH!

So what im after is a blade putter,....ive got an old blade one ive been practicing with lately and my distance control/feel is great with it, my only complaint is its a really cheap thing so its heavy as hell,

ive been looking at the new cleveland cc7 and the reviews seem good, many saying its close to a scotty (which im not forking out over £200 for)

anyone had any dealings with the new cc7? or other putters of a similar ilk?

PS: I prefer the shafts that go straight to the blade, none of this offset malarky!

Have you looked into Ping?

[Shorty]

All of the inexpensive anser style putters from Ping and Cleveland are excellent.

They feel no different from a Cameron putter even though they don't give you the same pride of ownership that some crave.

In my opinion, the best feeling non insert putters money can buy are the Odyssey Black Tour Designs models which can be had for insanely cheap prices.

They are the equal in workmanship and quality materials to anything at any price.

You'll get a new one on ebay for under 90 pounds, which makes them a steal.

im open to using anything, ping, odyssey,.....im not fussed on a insert face / milled face though

just something super light and super responsive so i can get a feel for distance

If you're after something light, then try and find an older Ping anser like this one

Because the bronze is so hard, they don't get bashed up and they are lighter than the newer models.

Plus you're using what Cameron and everyone else copy.

thanks shorty, im going to give the cleveland and ping anser models a go,...ive tried odyseyy but they are to pricey for me right now, soemthing i may upgrade to at a later date, im just after a quick upgrade for now to help my game

[carpediem4300]

well i tried various putters last night, including a scotty cameron (just for the hell of it)

no surprise the scotty was by far the nicest, cotnact off the face felt really really nice and it was easy to manouver the clubhead,....

the cleveland was second but not by much,

odyssey white ice teron thingy was third but lacekd feel off the face for my liking

ordered the clevelend cc7 :)
