    Choosing a new putter - What to look for!?!

    Thanks lads, It helps a lot being told to ignore the "what should work" saves me from getting too bogged down in things I'm not clued up on. Looks like it could be a round trip of every golf shop in Aberdeen to try as much as possible at the weekend :clap:

    Choosing a new putter - What to look for!?!

    As the title says guys I'm after some help. I bought a new putter last year - an Odyssey white hot pro # 7 - when I was trying to use a SBST path and based on my eye position the eyeFIT system recommended this as one to try. Long story short it's a nice putter but not for me. I've been using...

    Long back swing with putter. Help needed.

    Hi all I seem to have developed an unnecessarily long back swing with the putter. Inevitably this leads to deceleration on shorter putts and seems to lead to quite a few pulls as well. Anyone got any drills or suggestions to try and work through this? Also any general putting drills anyone has...

    Shortening a putter

    Tremendous advice folks, thanks. Should've asked here in the first place rather than trawling google. Far more complicated answers were given to similar questions on some other forums. Will get the hacksaw out tonight. Cheers guys

    Shortening a putter

    I currently have 2 putters a 34" Odyssey White Hot Pro #7 and a 33" Wilson Staff BLK 8881. After a lot of work on my putting I've decided that I prefer the shorter putter for length but am more accurate with the mallet head. A quick google on shortening the length of a putter has left me none...

    Counterfeit SuperStroke grips warning

    Update people: Not going to name the seller. At the point I posted this I'd only received one response from the seller and I'd rather give him a chance to sort it first before I drag his name through the mud. He gave me a full refund and I forwarded him pictures and an email from the pro...

    Counterfeit SuperStroke grips warning

    They are having difficulty getting any stock of them in due to "massive demand in America". I did try there first, I wasn't quite that brass necked to bypass him first. When I was looking for one last week I couldn't source one in Aberdeen at all. Hence the resorting to the interwebs for one :ears:

    Counterfeit SuperStroke grips warning

    Hey people Had it confirmed by the pro after an assistant fitted the grip that it's 100% fake. Unfortunately it was the Mrs that took it straight from delivery to get it fitted so I never got to see how obviously fake it was prior to it being fitted. The feeling is all off on the grip compared...

    Driver: Offset vs No Offset advice

    Hi all, I've got a Wilson Staff DXI 12 degree driver in the bag at the moment. It has a slight off-set and I hit it well albeit fairly high. Since I had a lesson with the driver and hitting up my striking is more consistent but I'm fairly sure I'm losing distance to height. I managed to pick up...

    It has finally happened

    They need to. Surprised that it took this long for it to happen. I imagine Sergio will be fairly vocal about it post round (he's not shy, is he? :whistle:) so hopefully this is the spark needed to shut the morons (your description was more accurate) up once and for all.

    putting routines

    The practice green at my club is pretty small but a relatively good representation of what the greens are like. I hit 5 balls from 10 ish feet away then hit the short putts of the ones that don't drop. If I feel my alignment is off by a good bit I redo this a few times. Then I hit longer putts...

    Using the driver...

    Use what works. Us high handicappers are inconsistent by nature and the drivers the hardest club to use in the bag. Unlikely to get much success using the driver if you end up in the cabbage or OOB every shot imo. Wouldn't worry about it, a little light ribbing on the golf course is to be...

    What would you do?

    Personally I'd tell them. You sound as though you've turned yourself around and are rightly proud of that. I wouldn't personally want to undermine what you've achieved by feeling the need to look ashamed by your past. You've done your time, you were very young when it happened and I'd much...

    Opening the face of a wedge advice

    Thanks for the advice guys. Duncan - I hadn't really thought about the possibility of dropping the 3 wood if I'm honest but it makes sense. It's another one of my limited use clubs. I don't use it off the tee unless I'm having a nightmare with the driver but I'm generally pretty straight with...
