My Edel Putter Fitting

[Joezilla]

Thanks for the replies. I like the idea, but could never convince the wife to allow it.

She might buy into the idea if you tell her it's the last putter I'll ever have to buy, Honey.

I told my wife  " I am getting a new custom putter.  It won't be cheap, and normally I value your opinion but on golf equipment you simply cannot grasp the importance or value of this.    Golf is very important to me, and if you love me you'll understand why getting this putter is important to me.   In the long time over our marriage, the money spent on this putter is trivial, but my peace of mind should be worth something to you.    You may object, but I don't care.   Get over it.    Oh, and by the way, yes those pants do make you look fat ."

In my mind.

Out loud, I said " Pleeease?    Oh please, please, please may I spend a little of our hard earned money on this putter?   Oh, and by the way those pants look fantastic!   Have you lost weight?"

I really like my new putter.

Absolutely fantastic! You had me going. I'm all ... "Wow, he's playing the 'if you love me' card. That takes balls!" Kudos.

You guys must have married the wrong woman.  I'll just ask mine for the money.  She'll say "Sure".

It's very simple. Six little letters.

P-A-Y-P-A-L.

It's the modern "fun money" stash.

C'mon guys. Get with the times.

P.S. Gonna be awhile before I have fun.

Been married almost 9 years, I have never regretted having separate bank accounts...

It's here!!!

[Mr. Desmond]

Oooooooooooooooh...nice

[colin007]

One of your pixels is crooked...:-P Sweet putter!! Btw, does anybody know how Edel feels about fat grips? I love my superstroke slim, I don't know if I could go back to a thin grip...

[David in FL]

DAMN that's purty! You're playing tomorrow, right?!

Congrats on the Edel putter!  Looks great.  I've had mine for almost four years now, and it has been well worth the money.

Sorry for the blurry picture.

During my fitting process, I was getting a whole new arsenal of clubs, and replacing my putter was at the bottom of list.  I have always considered myself a great putter, and when I saw how off my aim was on my 2ball I was excited to get the putter until I heard the price.  Then after the lovely folks at Totally Driven had me putt 10 8 footers which both putters I drained 9 with the Edel and it has been a match made in heaven ever since.

Tristan, make sure you give it a few rounds to get used to the feel of the new club.  I remember my first few rounds being a little shaky getting the feel of switching from such a light putter to the Edel.  After about 4 rounds and multiple practice sessions everything started clicking.

ENJOY
