I am about to get a new putter and wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions?

I am thinking Scotty Cameron but I am pretty open.

Thoughts?

Ping zing. I held mine up to a Cameron studio 1.5 it is the exact same putter head for half the price. Performance the same also. Can't go wrong with a 2 ball odessey either. I have switched between the 2 last season loved them both.

I would get the putter that "feels" the best to YOU and that YOU feel the most confident with. The Karsten series Ping putters are probably the best bang for your buck right now, but a milled putter (Scotty Cameron, etc.) might feel better.

I honestly prefer milled putters.

There are a lot of great putters around but don't limit your choices by what is in production now. If you can find a beat up Scotty, have it restored by the Custom Shop. The price of the restoration is $165 and it includes a new shaft, grip, cover and makes the head look as new as possible.

My wife has a Odyssey 2 ball which is ridiculously easy to hit well. I have never used a putter easier to line up straight. If all putts were 10 feet or less, it would be in my bag. Lots of pros use it.

I'm trying to get used to hitting the new PING half CraZ long putter. This far it has proven much better on longer putts (over 10 feet) than a conventional putter; I'm no longer lagging my long putts, I'm actually trying to make them all now.

I loved my Ping Anser, and only switched when I received a similar Fisher from a friend. They're both great putters, and if I have a problem with one, I switch to the other for a few weeks.

love my PING

YES are nice, if they have a head you like

Scotty Cameron are overpriced in my opinion, but they are solid.

A putter is very personal though... use what looks/works best to you... some people find a putter for $20.00 and it works great for them.

Ive always used a scotty cameron putter... I prefer the milled feel of a solid putt. But i just recently bought an odyssey XG putter. It is an extreemly solid feeling putter, yet they are also very soft, but they dont feel so soft that you leave them short. (one of the things i think has plagued odyssey putters in the past) It just depends on what you think feels like a solid putt. The PING putters are nice but, i think they feel slightly hollow...something that a cameron surely does not feel like. Again, it just depends on what type of feel you want out of a putter... Im going through a putter phase right now also, so i know the feeling.... haha

good luck and keep us posted....

Yeah, the Nike iC putter line. I've tried them out for a few days and just said forget it, its the right putter for me. So i bought and im waiting for it to come in. I think it's worth looking at. Im not being advocate for it, but just a thought...

Is that their new putter that just came out that is only two pieces (where the shaft and the head are all one piece)?

I saw one of those last night at the range, it seemed to be weighted pretty well.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
