Any non-conventional / lesser used putter owners?

Wondering who is currently using a putter which you'd struggle to find in American Golf......

Or, perhaps one that you reckon you've never seen anyone else own?

OR, a really cheap putter or little-known brand which you'd swear is better than a $1000 Scotty.....

Pics with your post would help add to the thread!

Hi,

I have a Snake Eyes Tour Platinum 7801 Putter and have never found another that is better. The role, feel and everything is there. Would struggle to swap or change.
Would never go for irons or drivers with same brands but must say I fell upon this by chance and it is a gem!!

As my signature says, mine is a Howson. I will have to check the model when I get home but its got a black shaft (graphite or imitation graphite more likely) and some of the black paint is coming off the shaft! Its 15 years old at least!

Beat my Jesper Parnevik and Seve inspired putter. This has just knocked a £190 putter out of my bag and I'm so confident it'll be staying that I've sold the Ping Anser Milled at substantial loss!!!!!

STX Sync Tour putter.Beem used a STX Sync Tour model, originally brought into the spotlight by Seve Ballesteros and Jesper Parnevik and which at first glance resembles a branding iron.Centre shafted and with a bulbous weight behind the blade

My Odyssey No.7H isn't, on the face of it, uncommon at all.
But I've never seen another on the course.
I know a couple on here have had them in the past but it's the White Hot Tour version.
Heavier head weight and a bronze/gold finish to reduce glare. It's also several % bigger than the standard No.7.

It also knows that it's on probabtion.....
Didin't putt particularly well today but it sunk a 20-odd foot birdie on the last to steal the game from Fragger - so it lives for another week at least.

I've never seen anyone else using a Scotty X5, but I'm not sure that it's unconventional. Just a basic mallet.

Got rid of my TM white thing, back to my Nike 003 method. Not seen anyone use this putter even when Tiger was using it. The only putter I know if you hit it slightly off centre the ball comes up well short. Still love it and it makes a nice crack when I putt.

My old mans got one of these in the spare room at his house said he used to use it in the 90's. I'm tempted to take it for a spin

Called a teardrop I think
