Well, since I've not seen anything written or tweeted or social networked about Virtual Green, I wonder if it was a bust. I thought going into the show, that was the most interesting product.

Whoa! What's this?

@iacas can probably explain better than I can.

I want that Segue/skateboard thing.

I'd ride it from home to the first tee... and beyond.

It's fun to ride but it's $6,500.

The Tru-Roll putters look interesting. @mvmac did you get a chance to try them out?

I did, thought they rolled the ball well. Not as crazy looking at address as you might think. Can't say for sure whether the rolled face is better than a flat face.

It looks so odd to me.  Has anyone ever tried something like that before that you know of?

Teardrop had some curve or roll to their faces but not as much as Tru-Roll. Those are the only two that come to mind that have done something like that.

With all the different designs for mallets these days, "crazy looking" is in the eye of the beholder. I'd be willing to try it out, but unless the round face is going to help with my distance control, it probably won't help my putting much.

This one? It's exclusive to Japan. PURE didn’t launch any new grips at the show but they did launch a new rubber compound that they say performs better in wet and sweaty conditions. I did notice a slightly tackier feel.
