Has anyone used the puttist ? Looks like a really cool idea to ingrain distance control on your putts . It is a bit pricey though.

Practicing 30' putts on a 5' putting mat doesn't sound like a barrel of monkeys if you know what I mean.

Agreed but if it ingrains distance control on putts between 5 to 45 feet it might be worth it. Not really sure how effective this thing is though.

I have looked at this device but that is a lot of cash for something without proof of it working. Already wasted a bunch of money on new technology P3Proswing. I read up on it that you need to enter the stimp of the greens you want to put on. I would be interested in hearing if anyone has seen their putting improve from using this device.

If it look like AD, I'll stop here. Sorry.

I have one and like it a lot.  I don't use it as much anymore but I still think it's a good idea and a cool product.  I don't know of anything else that you can use in a small indoor space that helps with putting distance control (although I think Pelz has some sort of device also).

You can get hundreds of reps of different length putts while in your living room watching the golf channel or a bowl game or whatever.

I didn't get the feeling that the Puttist guy was advertising, just responding informatively on a post that referenced his invention.  But you guys run a tight ship, and it is your ship after all.

I recommend checking out the thread that I started last year on the Puttist.  I continue to use it almost daily.  I love it.  It works great and is nice to have as an option when you cannot go outside because of the snow.  Regarding price, yes it's high but I bought mine on Ebay brand new for less than $200.

    • I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.  
    • Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

    • Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
