That's what I mean.

$300 - the price of a decent second hand driver with a good shaft.

And "quality" -  the equal of any other OEM.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Shorty, I don't think you understand. It says "Scotty Cameron" right there on the putter head and the grip ... AND it's got 3 red dots on the back of it. (And its really, really shiny) Now do you get it???

King Arthur did not select Excalibur.... Harry Potter did not select his wand....

You're going to dare and select your own....PUTTER?

In all seriousness, get your ass to a big box brick-and-mortar and play around with their stock. Find what you like and do some research. It doesn't matter if I tell you that my Odyssey is Rick James on a scale of "wow". What matters is what works for you. Go put your hands on them and actually putt with them and buy what works.

I agree. But that contradicts what you said about going to a brick and mortar store and picking a putter off the rack.

Get properly fitted for a putter and it will be the last putter you ever buy (unless you lose it, or damage it, I suppose).

Well, what I mean is that it is at the least better to pick one up and actually use it and get a feel for the design and comfort within the alignment aids, weight, etc. rather than take my advice through a forum recommendation.

Plus I've gone through a fitting with a putter and replaced it out of stupidity twice. Add stupidity by attraction to shiny new things after "or damage it" and you're right!

    • Day 23: weird day, and only had a little bit of time. Just did mirror work again, working on where the elbow is in the downswing 
    • I flipped over to this tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Anyone else watch? I picked it up during the golf relay event, but seeing these pros out having fun in alternative events was refreshing and entertaining. I’m sure it will be on in reruns in the next week or so, so I won’t spoil the outcome. Im curious what others thought of it. I’m recording it’s later airing to see the beginning. 
    • Day 443 - 2025-12-17 Made a few swings in testing some things out at another academy. Might pop up on someone else's podcast in a few weeks.
    • Day 37 (17 Dec 25) - nine hole round with my good friend.  We got paired up with a couple of the men’s group regulars as part of their shootout.  Started off with a wonderful quad bogie and then a dbl on three to be six over thru three holes.  Game went 180° over the next five as I shot one under (including a chip in birdie on hole six and four up and down 1 putt pars) for a net finish of five over. What could have been a really tough nine became a solid finish due to staying in the moment and not checking out.  Great day in course management and keeping perspective .
    • Day 127 12-17 Backswing and flow practice. Took advantage of the 60 degeee weather(it was 20 degrees Sunday)
