im thinkin about a new putter or 3 wood for Christmas. i know which i want of both, the 3 wood is easily available, the scotty...not so much. who has had good luck when ordering a scotty putter? did you buy it from a website like TGW or just ebay it? are the prices the same everywhere except ebay? can you order from the scotty website?

I would suggest going to the Scotty Cameron site and look for authorized dealers. E-bay is ok but that putter, watch out. I just bought one for $225.00 and it was a fake. the person i bought it from could not have been nicer, he was unaware (?) but he gave me ALL MY MONEY back within 8 hours of asking for it. I would only buy from someone with thousands of customers, plenty of feedback and one that has a return policy.

its not a name i want to buy, its a little confidence over the ball and better feel than the ODYSSEY i have right now. trust me im not a name brand kind of guy. i used my friends scotty and have never felt a sweeter putter. im just picky. if i decide against a scotty i will get a ping redwood anser or nike unitized with similiar head design. i have a mallet type putter and i want to change.

I was just playing with ya man. You gotta go with what gives you confidence over the ball. Just out of curiosity, have you tried the Black Series yet? Something to think about. Great putters with amazing feel, and it will save you a few pennies.

i did look at the black series, its not enough savins to steer me away from a scotty. i want a milled putter for sure and im probabaly not gonna pay for it anyways. my family always have a hard time buying stuff for me for Christmas, so if i cant talk them into shelling out a ton for a ps3 then i want a scotty cause i normally cant afford one.

goose- i wish i could just order one from the custom shop so i could get the sightlines and finish i want. im looking at the newport 2 but i would rather not have the studio finish. i would be open to used scottys as long as they were mint and had all original accessories.

well i just tried out the scotty compared to the ping redwood and mizuno and never compromise. im still gonna go with the scotty. i know the guy at the proshop and he said he could order the one i want and it would only be about 200 so its still not even that bad on price. thanks for the help guys.

Use that money you saved and send it in to the studio for initials! I sent in my circa and they stamped my initials on the face by the toe. Pretty cool to personalize it. You are saving a few bucks and probably wont get to many rounds in around christmas anyways!!

haha that is an awesome idea but i probabaly wont go any farther with a gamer. if you could order one direct form the custom shop, i probabaly would. they dont offer the finish i want and i would like to add a sight dot to the top. o well, im sure ill love my scotty when Christmas time comes around.

If I were you, and I'm not, I'd at least try the Odyssey Black Series. I own numerous putters, including a Mizuno Bettinardi, which I think feels better than the SCs. The Black Series is the best feeling of the three. Mizunardi 2nd. JMHO.

Now, i'm not that experienced with several different types of putters...but i'll echoe what he said as far as the feel. My black series #2 is the sweetest putter i've ever used. I've never putted like I have with this thing.

I had an Odyssey two ball blade. I liked it alot. But I started reading these forums and kept seeing the name "Scotty Cameron", knew nothing about them, what was so great, how much they cost etc. So I went to check it out at my local EW. Picked it up and WOW! There is just something differant about these putters. The feel, the confidence, the weight, the grip, something. I bought it on the spot and I will never use anouther putter. Never. My putting has been on fire!

    • Day 11: did mirror work for a while. Worked on the same stuff. 
    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
