Has anyone seen the Black Swan putter

[chrisd]

I saw one of the guys at the range with this putter last night. It's huge and it's ugly but it did roll the ball remarkably straight and true. He said that his lag putting, usually his nemesis, is now transformed and his scores are tumbling. He met the inventor just by chance and ended up buying three different models off him, after apparently watching him sink several 60 foot putts in a row. It works due to the massive sweet spot and stability

Have a look

Did you manage to get a shot of it? Looks really quirky- I liked it immediately.

Shame they don't seem to have a UK distributor (like Frankly Frog).

In fact, I KNEW I had heard of this putter:

http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/golf/masters-2013-sandy-lyle-hails-1826596

Sandy Lyle used it to good effect. I don't know if it's still in his bag.


AAAAANNND, a guy I played with 6 months ago said he actually spoke to the inventor of this putter so I guess he must get to the UK occasionally. I would be interested in a test drive.

Truly fugly, but hey, if it gets the job done ......

 

[Oddsocks]

Effective or not... I couldn't game it!

[medwayjon]

If it guaranteed me a lower score I still wouldnt use it

I would rather miss a couple more putts than have to look at something so tragically ugly

 

[garyinderry]

does it come in white? :rofl:


heck, its not even as ugly as half my putters!

 

[tsped83]

Nope, even for me that is a putter too far. Looks hideous and unwieldy.

 

[NorfolkShaun]

Not the prettiest putter but hey what ever gets the job done imho...

Would try one if I ever saw one but think this looks a little unlikely in the UK

It didn't work for Lyle did it.
Cant remember him winning the tournament.
Bad putters will probably give it a go,purely because bad putters are always looking
for some inspiration.

Maybe it was on in indoor putting green at the local AG, you know the one where everything finds the hole....

Wow that is one hell of a putter ( not in a good way ) - is there not laws on the size of putter.

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Ugly but there again I thought the Spider was a fourth form metalwork project when it came out but after trying it (courtesy of a GM freebie) it worked and I had to change my opinion

 

[CMAC]

cheaper to get an old pub ashtray and stick a stick on it- ridiculous looking thing

 

[stevie_r]

That thing must be just on the limit dimension wise

 

[harpo_72]

he missed a few at the end, must have got a bit tired swinging that about. I dunno how on a really quick slippery down hiller you could get the feel for the pace with that .. otherwise I am a believer (well not a nay sayer anyway)
