  2. I wouldn't count out a return to form for Tiger, even a return to the intimidation level he once enjoyed. He's only played in one tournament in 2011, after all, so it is premature to suggest that "he's done." On the other hand, he's showing no signs of getting back to that level - yet.

  4. I use a Scotty Newport and have for years. Once upon a time I changed putters constantly, and finally decided years ago to find a putter I could stick with, and after many hours on store putting greens testing putters, I went with the Scotty because, all things considered, I just made more putts comparing apples to apples. I am now considering buying a Method. When killing time in golf stores, I always wander by the putting green, pick up a few putters (new and used) and practice a little, particularly when the weather is this bad. A couple of months ago I picked up a Nike Method in a Golfsmith store and was very impressed. I was holing long distance putts with the Method, one after another. I really work on my putting, and think of myself as a good putter (tee to green is another story), so I want as much of an edge on the greens as I can get. I don't care at all how it looks, I want to hole putts. The Nike Method doesn't have the overall look of a Scotty, but in terms of doing what a putter is supposed to do, help you hole putts, it is impressive. I'll likely end up getting one after a few more practice sessions at the store, if they go as well as they've have been, it's going to be hard for me not to take it home, even at $250. When you look at the evidence, the ball does start to roll faster than any other putter. That helps putts hold their line, and helps with distance control as well. Instead of basing your decision on the putter based on your conception of the brand or on how it looks in pictures, I recommend trying one in a store.
