Has anyone else seen Sandy Lyle's putter?
It's about a foot wide and looks like a horseshoe!
How can he miss?

Bet the caddy is loving carrying that lump of metal around.

I managed to find this video of where the inspiration came for the putter

Made by Orion Golf in the States.
The model he uses is called the "Black Swan". The other abomination is called the "Black Hawk"
..... And a between $250-$300 not cheap.

The thing looks ridiculous and cumbersome. Putting from the fringe must be hard with it too.

I seen these in Metro West Golf Club in Florida in the pro shop, they stand on their own and don't need put in a rack. Huge things in the flesh too.

I hope he never gets in a tizzy and smashes that thing into the green, it would take the greenkeepers weeks to repair the damage.

Watching Adam Scott 'putt' with his enormous piece of metal (not a euphamism btw) it strikes me that what he is doing is not putting but swinging a pendulum. His take away is pulling a pendulum back and his 'stroke' is letting the weight swing under the force of gravity around his hand/chin pivot-point - all he does on his forward stroke is guide a swinging pendulum - he is not making a stroke at the ball - and top all intents and purposes the ball simple 'gets in the way' - so right to be banned. At least Sandy makes a stroke with his abomination.
