Head Pro
Evening,
Always been massively equipment obsessed and spend hours on an evening looking at clubs online/looking for bargains etc. Now, i don't have the money for custom fit anything, my entire bag has been purchased second hand. I don't really use driver off the tee as I can hit my irons a relatively good distance and am far more comfortable doing so. Things are starting to click back into place and hit an all time best 87 since starting playing again during my last round.
However I can't seem to get my putting down. It was a large improvement on recent rounds but still not as consistent as it should be. I keep chopping and changing between clubs (different blades). Now ive decided i want to give a heavier head a try to try get a better stroke, thinking either an odyssey o works tank model or some sort of mallet head (If anyones selling any putters for a reasonable price please PM me). I know logic says just get a lesson but I enjoy the experimentation. Is anyone else like this who just tinkers with there set up or do people go straight back to the drawing board and work solely on technique. I am not undermining the value of practice and do regularly work on all aspects with my game but no matter what I do, I am not very confident when setting up my putter for a putt.
Interested in what other people do or think about this "technique". I know there will be people on here who have garages full of spare set ups and clubs so am intrigued if they actually get regularly rotated in?
