I am looking at putting in a bid for a putter on ebay. It is a two ball counter balanced putter, but to be honest, I don't know what that means. Can someone explain ?

That is the first video if you type counterbalance putter into Google and click video.

I have the odyssey two ball putter and I love it. They reckon the the two clubs you can change left right and centre are the putter and driver, but for me the two ball is gorgeous and have no wish to change it. The idea is that you line the two balls up on the back of your putter with your ball on or off the green and that is your line you hit through. Not a straight line to the hole but the line you have chosen through breaks and inclines. It works for me massively.
My particular putter has underneath weights which you can change depending on the speed of the greens. It may appear to be a gimmick but once I had sorted out which weight I prefered I have stuck with it.
gorgeous club and I love it.

The latest version of the 2 ball is very nice.
i use a White Hot Pro Number 7. I love it. Similar to the one used by Luke Donald and Henrik Stenson. http://www.callawaygolfpreowned.com...pro-putters/putters-2013-white-hot-pro-7.html
Out of date now but you can get them off EBay for a decent price.

Is the putter cheap? If not I'd consider having a putter fitting on a SAM lab if you could if you're not sure which style of putter would be best for you. Although I know there are loads on here who regularly buy new putters.

Ive been on a SAM and today I've been on the Quintic system that tracks the roll of the ball and I prefer it to the SAM. To see what the ball does at and after impact is an eye opener, so much so I got fitted with a new putter. The single most expensive thing I've bought ever in golf and that includes buying a new Scotty Cameron Del Mar California for £250.

After a new one myself to replace my tatty old one I began with. Thinking toe weighted is the way to go after reading the above article. But will try the lot see what I like.

Putters are very personal.
I got mine off the shelf based on feel when taking up the game. I bought the one i liked.
Either I have grown my stroke to fit the putter or I was very lucky. Whatever it works now so won't be changing.
I would recommend getting fitted, you play half your game with this club so get it right!
Lessons are a big help, putting (and stopping hitting OB) is an easy place to save strokes.

I developed the putting yips shortly after buying one of the first Two-Ball putters! Don't know if this was a co-incidence or not? :mmm:
I've a two ball. Love it. However putters are arguably the most personal piece of equipment and so try as many as you can, ideally on a proper green before you buy. See what suits your style and eye

yup to that, thing is with what mah man Homer has said is that once you have decided which putter you like then look on eBay etc for that particular one. otherwise you may end up swopping putters left right and centre before you realise Homer was right. which ever particular putter you chose they will always be on ebay.

I have an original Ram Zebra and will never change unless forced to do so.
I'm pretty sure that many of my playing friends wish that I'd lose it somewhere....
Well, I have just bought my new putter. Putters as you well know can cost a fortune, and even if you try it in the shop, it doesn't mean it is going to work for you long term on the course. For this reason, accompanied by the fact I am extremely poor, I have haggled and spent the grand total of £7.50, for a used but in in mint condition Bay Hill white magic 1.5 ball mallet putter. I was looking for an odyssey putter, but even 10 year old ones sell for more than my wife is worth. I spent almost a day researching Bay Hill putters, and whilst I couldn't find much on them. Unfortunately my pro shop doesn't stock hardly anything (other than balls and tees) and there isn't a golf shop for at least 30 miles. The point being, if the club doesn't work for me, I can re-sell it, and hardly lose anything. I will let you all know how I get on, if it ever stops raining.
