Does Woods need a mallet?

I follow my old dad's advise,GRHS go to the shop and buy the most expensive top quality putter you can find that you like. If you cant putt with it, you'll never putt with owt else. I adore my Ping Anser JAS. I don't always putt well but it aint the putter.

Following on from what Murph said, about how often we change putters. Here's a little survey I did on here a little while ago about how often folks change their clubs. These are the results from the putter section.



Less than 6 months 23 31.51%
6 months to year 13 17.81%
1 to 2 years 17 23.29% 72.60%
2 to 3 years 4 5.48%
3 to 4 years 5 6.85%
4 to 5 years 0 0.00%
5 years plus 11 15.07%
Total Votes 73

So 72.6% of us have putters that are less than 2 years old!

While there are 15% of us with putters over 5 years old. I guess that they're the guys that have a good solid putting stroke, and they've learnt how to use it properly.

As someone said. Indians and arrows!

Reminds me of a conversation I was having a few months ago.
A grandmother was saying that her Grandson has already had 3or4 different drivers and her husband, who used to play off 4,used the same set of clubs for over 30years!

How times change

I just retired my putter of 15 years for a younger, sexier model. I don't get along with mallets, so putters haven't changed much for me in the last two decades.
