So this last Wednesday we were on a 1 hr rain delay at our coarse, so we decided to kill some time and ended up at a little golf shop in this small town. The owner was showing us around the shop and we ended up in his catch all room. That's when I came across this putter, it is a Fisher Talon TS-1 . So he then says that there was kit that came with it and he could let it go for $30. I walked out with the putter and weight kit. What's different about this putter is that it has changeable inserts, well it's a block that is 4 sided and color coded for different speeds and feel. It was set to the black which is one of the firmest ones, after getting ahold of the company yesterday they informed me on how to change the insert. I now have it set to burgundy which is softer. Anyway, this putter is discontinued and from what I have seen in a demand. They seem to sell for around the $200 mark when you do find them for sale. I put the Super Stroke grip on it today

Thanks! My buddy thought it was too busy but I like the site lines on it. Seems really easy to aim. It also looks to be well made, after changing the insert im happy with the feel . Looks like I may be keeping this one

I used to use a Fisher putter.  A friend of mine has it now.  Probably the putter I spent the most calendar time with over the course of my time playing golf.

    • 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?
