New to this forum. I've been golfing for about 20 years and have ALWAYS used an old Ping putter that was given to me. I'm finally trying to get back into the game after a 2 year hiatus and of course the 1st thing to go is my putting. I go and practice putting twice a week but still am blowing it with short(er) putts ... I mean, like 3 footers. Then the long(er) putts of like 25-30 feet I an pulling hard left - presumably from the long back-swing I have to make to get some speed. I know this is primarily a skill issue and I am trying to get THAT under control -- but the other part of it to me is the putter. I'm seriously considering new hardware in an attempt to "help" me. Something with maybe a bit more weight to it. (The Ping putter is pretty light.)
Does this make sense? I guess what I'm asking is have you gone through this issue and were you able to actually solve it with a new heavier putter? And if so, suggestions of which one(s) I might look at? I really don't want to have to spend more than $100-125 if I can. There are sooooo many choices out there and I don't want to waste my money.
Thanks in advance.
