I find it interesting that most of the images posted of the Edel putters are typically very simplistic in alignment markings. Most of them have very few lines on them.

@jsgolfer, when you were fitted did they try out any alignment lines on the putter? If so, then how off did they make you aim compared to the putter you had made for you? 

I always found it interesting how one two lines can totally throw off your ability to line up a putter.

You are dead on, during the fitting I was pretty good with one line, but add two or three lines and I would be way offline.  He even did just dots and it comes out that I aim the putter more accurately when there were no lines.  Go figure.  And I was way off with three lines on a putter.  No wonder I missed so many putts with my old putters.  :~(

Nice. I'm itching to get mine. My fitting was two weeks ago. I haven't seen any emails from them, but from what I've gathered it seems about a month for the putter to arrive. Patience is hard!

I received mine in 21 business days from the fitting. Which is about what I expected from the email, 17 business days to make and a couple of days for shipment.  

I went to putting green and practiced with it, however they had just punched the greens so I made some putts and missed some putts but the feel so far is great. Playing later today, so we'll see how that goes

It's Wednesday.

How come we don't have an update?! :whistle:

 

Your wedges and putter look great!  I'm very envious and wish I were liquid enough to get myself irons and Edel wedges and putter.  Haha.

First round with it, I had a hard time getting a feel for the greens but the greens had just been punched and sanded right before I played.  Second round, which was today, was much better, although the greens were also punched and sanded.  Will be nice when I can play on a normal green.  But after two rounds, it is going well.

Today's round at Championsgate National Course went well.  42-36-78 Greens were in really good shape and I only had 1 three putt which was from 70 feet.  Can't wait to play with this for years.

I was just fit for an Edel putter this morning.  The fitting is great...very analytical, one step at a time.  The only part that was tough for me was determining the weights required for proper distance control.  My stroke itself is still so inconsistent that it was tough to evaluate, but I think I got the best combo (of head/grip weighting) for me.

I can't wait for it to show up.  My old putter had me aiming off to the right (and then "pulling" puts unconsciously to compensate), so I'm excited to try it out.  I wanted something very minimalist in the stampings...all paint fill one color, and nothing on the face (other than the dots).

    • Day 17 - Played 18 today. Greens were in rough shape, but mostly happy with how I played. 
    • Day 197 - 2025-04-15 Played 18 holes at Yeaman's Hall Club.
    • Day 13 (15 Apr 25)- late afternoon session with 6i full swings into the net and short pitches in the yard, before moving to Sw for controlled up and downs.  For kicks broke out the DCI 16° 1 iron and hit a few as into the net.  Definitely different beast. 
    • Day 24: Tax Day Stack Training Session for Full Speed Spectrum. Good session!
    • Very respectfully, I disagree.  I still believe there’s a small kernel of truth to my theory.  Hey, you, iacas and many others here are extremely knowledgeable, know the game inside out, know the tour inside out.  I’m just a schmuck who posted a take, admittedly unsupported and not up to reasonable high standards. There’s a background to my take - I’ll attempt to briefly describe it.  Back when Rory first came on tour, I thought he was great - most folks did, his talent was undeniable, and his youthful happy go lucky looking demeanor made him even more likable.  And he won early, fast - at the highest levels. And then the physical workouts started.  That was cool, man he’s looking good.  And as it went along, was even a bit shocking.  But all was still good in the Rory fan club. But as a few years rolled along and the majors stopped, folks like me started to question the effect of the physical build up.  (raising my hand here - - folks like me were probably concentrating 95% on the majors record, and failing to acknowledge his stellar play overall) The matches with Patrick Reed...  Somewhere around that time, Patrick became “the most hated man on tour”.  Raising my hand again, not sure if that timing is accurate, or even if that moniker was deserved.  But when Rory got into the screaming flex-off, it definitely detracted from the earlier Rory likability.  It’s kinda like he was lowering himself to Patrick’s level.  Not so great, for me at least. As the mid 2010s rolled along, and the majors drought continued, and the near misses at the Masters happened, the dreaded ‘choke’ perception inevitably raised its head and persisted.  I joined in with the chorus, not disliking Rory, but certainly questioning his ability to close the Masters or any other major.  Rightfully or wrongly, it was there. Then LIV came along.  As that developed, I saw the anti-LIV sentiment develop along with it, and I took offense to it.  My thought - these guys are being offered life changing $$, and the anti-LIV folks are trying to stop them from getting it. And then when Rory rose to ‘lead’ the anti-LIV sector, that really rubbed me the wrong way.  The press conferences, the parking lot shouting match - it just all seemed really distasteful to me.  And it seemed far far away from the early Rory, who I really liked. So all that (in my own mind) led me down the “Rory will never win.. yada yada”.  Not based on any real statistical analysis.  Not taking into account the incredible stats and winning record he had amassed. Purely based on perception and cultural silliness.  AND - the physical thing, which as I mentioned, I think there’s a tiny kernel of merit there. So - fast forward to Rory’s post win press conference.  THAT was the old Rory I remembered!  The totally cool guy, humble, forthright, honest, self deprecating.  He’s probably been like that all along.  And he’s certainly backed off the hard core anti-LIV persona, at least in public. That’s it.  Just a stupid unsupported take from a dumbsh*t golf fan.  For me, this was the most exciting major since the Tiger era. I really thought it would be a gladiator death match between Rory and Bryson.  I’m surprised that Bryson fell off - - I thought he was well-set-up to handle the pressure.  I’m sure he’ll be there many times in the future, along with Rory.
