I have been wanting a mallet style putter for awhile now after messing around with the wife's Odessey when I am practising at home .

I have spent a lot of hours all together at Golftown trying out all different brands and styles . I currently play my twenty year old Ping Anser 2 and after trying others thought the mallet style and litlle more weight was the thing for me .

I had it narrowed down to a Ping Scottsdale mallet that I liked and the Scotty Cameron Golo S .  I was leaning toward the Ping cause it was alot cheaper than the Scotty . We went to GT on the weekend and the wife says " you might as well get the one you really want so you will be happy with it " . So I left the store with my great wife and a new Scotty . Now I can't wait for the weather to warm up a bit so we can get out and try it .

Scotty's are arguably the best putters on the market. Take it from me...as I've tried them all! Some of the insert technology on the Pings and Odyssey's wear over time and the body of the putter generally isn't milled the same way Scotty's are.

It's very nice that your wife (like mine) is supportive of our habit, sorry, hobby. Ha!

What you will most appreciate is the feel off the putter face. It is a very consistent feel and sound. There are other milled putters on the market that are close (the Never Compromise Gambler or Dinero series comes to mind). Down the road, if you want to further customize your Scotty you can send it directly to Titleist. Costs like $200 but will make your putter even more unique, but certainly not necessary!

Another unique thing about milled putters is that they are easy to bend. If you think the toe is too high or to low, just bring it to a certified professional and they only charge like $5 to bend the loft & lie on your putter (if you need it).

I suppose the best attribute of your new putter is simply that you love it. Players MUST love their driver, wedge, and putter. If you love your putter you will be more confident. More confidence = more holed putts.

I bought my first Scotty in 2003 and now own four of them...

Congrats on your purchase!

I just purchased my second California series Scotty, and so far this new Monterey is the finest tool I have ever used!!!! I have beat my previous best round 2 times in a week. I cannot wait to send it out to his custom shop and pimp it out even more!

    • God I hate when golf can’t give me n+1 day of success. Drives me up the wall when my body is, FU! Im like, ok let’s check the vid. Yep too much turn, arms getting behind me. Ok, I work on that. Get the feel back for a shorter swing. Confirm with video. Then going back to arms down stuff.  Arms down, nope it’s hands out towards the ball. Oh, you get arms down better. Guess what, you don’t get to rotate and you hit 6 inches behind the ball. Yay!  Maybe I should have walked off the range and not wasted my time. I wish there was a body alert system when it’s going to a SOB for the day. 😭 OK rant over, I’ll be back at this tomorrow.

    • I mean there has to be some thought. For eg., something like 'soft knees and wrists' at set up and maybe a dynamic 'left arm to chin' as a trigger to start DS. I have these one or two anchor thoughts and have served me well. In fact, my wildest swings are the one where I have no thoughts or if I forget to walk thru my anchor thoughts. In contrast my best rounds are where I am consistent with the anchor thoughts.    OTOH, if I am running my entire half hour lesson (hypothetical) with some pro that I had last Saturday or whatever before every swing then I'm probably in trouble before I even get over the ball.      
    • Two bits. Bit 1 The NCAA's appeal of Brendan Sorsby being granted a temporary injunction will not be heard until February, so there will be nothing to prevent Sorsby from playing the full season and potential CFP.  Bit 2 The Big Ten Conference will hold a meeting and is expected to ban all of its athletic programs from playing Texas Tech in the regular season. Georgia has done the same. The SEC will meet to consider a similar ban. Fellow Big 12 members TCU and Kansas State are spearheading a similar ban, but the conference charter might not allow it. Meanwhile, Big 12 athletic directors are meeting this week to explore what options the conference might have.
    • No, but I'm also in disagreement that golfers have no thoughts over the golf ball, and/or don't ever think I've met someone I truly believe is thinking nothing but "target" or something on most shots.
