I didn't think a new putter would make such a difference

So 2 weeks ago, I purchased a taylormade ghost spider putter from my pro shop. Took a few rounds to get used to, but in the last week, I've shot my lowest round and my handicap has dropped by 9! To be honest I think one of the reasons I am doing so well is because my previous putters was a hideous random brand centre shaft putter.
But now it is, for me, so simple to putt. When I go up to the ball, I don't think to myself "oh god this looks difficult " I actually think I could get this! So now I'm holing 6th putts like their tap ins!
If you haven't tried the putter I recommend you do, it feels great on long putts and it makes the short putts so easy because of it's driver like head ;)
 
If you sink a couple early on with a new putter, it can help ou out long term incredibly.

Step on a green without fear, be brave, and sink the dirty tart. It's the way I roll.

Unless it's a Green in Reg, then i'm usually so far away from the pin, it's a 3 putt. Standard.
