Im 56, back in 98 a group of friends put a set of clubs together for me and said you have to come out and golf with us. The putter they had in the bag was bent so on the First Tee Box I ran into the Pro Shop looked at some putters and gtabbed one that looked good to me. It was a Top Flite micro Groove tour flange. 29.99. I went back to the Tee Box and fell in love with the game. I broke 90 within 2 weeks and within a year was breaking 80 probably every fifth or sixth round. I've bought other Putters and always return to that Top Flight and I will never buy another putter. My goal this year was to break 70 for the first time and I finally did that on Thursday 68. I did miss a short birdie putt on one and a short par putt on 6 and cant stop thinking about how that could have easily been a 66 as I rarely miss those putts. My friends could not believe the clinic I was putting on with my putter that day. Outside of those two short putts that I almost never miss as they said, I was draining everything with a 28-year-old putter that cost $30. I can't help but laugh when I play with people that have $500 putters and I out putt them all day long.

100% Ping Zing feels just as good as the newer ones in time out in my closet.

Thank you Andy for a great video. I have a nice collection of putters from the Wilson 8802 & 8813 to a Honma BP-2007 mallet putter. Each putter has an aesthetic that I like but doesn't influence my putting outcome on the green.

I loved your video! It is common sense to me, and I don't know why people keep falling for thinking that a putter will make the ball go in for them.😅 They are the ones in complete control of that putter face, and if they aren't, then that is the problem. Obviously you want to feel comfortable with our putter and enjoy putting with your putter, but a person who knows how to put, will make more putts every time, even if they are In love with their putter. 😄

Tried several of the LABs including the blade which I prefer and completely lost my touch, they swing well but are difficult to use consistently when one has used a toe hang type all my life

Andy, here's my view on putters and putting.I know marketing is usually b.s. My observations are that all great golfers who are great putters go through periods when everything goes in, and then they don't. It's August, and I've gone through about 3 weeks of great putting, and now that period is drying up. I attribuite it to body changes, eye fluid changes, etc. And I looked at your site through curiosity, as I thought about that tour spider x, and why everyone is suddently using these ugly devices. they work for Rory, Scottie et al, until they stop working, which they will. I call constant putter changes placebos, nothinng more, like a quick golf fix that work for a round. Bottom line, I use an old ping pal 4 putter, love it, but like a life partner, we have our spats, don't talk for a few days, and then get back at it. Thanks for the fun video!

Recently purchased a new putter, some were heavier than others. Bought a lighter one that I liked the look of and the clear triple lines. Putting clearly improved on the old one that was starting to rust!
