Ive been blowing hot & cold of late with my Scotty Newport - Particularly with alinement from distance - Not anything particularly bad, just seldom drop them from further than 10' in less than two although always there or thereabout weight wise.

Been thinking about a ghost putter to help with alinement after reading a few decent reviews.
Whilst I love the feel of the Scotty & as I say judging distance with it feels easy its just I tend to end up a few inches either side of the cup most times & really just looking for that edge.


Does anyone have anything good to say about the TM ghost range? Or am I just looking for justification to drop another few quid in a fruitless search for better golf.

1) Yes, they're excellent. As much as it causes me unmentionable pain, TM made some flippin' great putters.
2) Yes, you are.

Next please...ding, ding... :)

Ghost are the 'latest' great thing, but imo are an acquired taste! Not really any better (or poorer) than previous offerings. A CS Itsy Ghost (available in Japan) would be nice though.

BTW. Statistics that PG Pros are only making 50% of 6'7" putts, so I wouldn't be overly worried about missing most 10 footers.

Yes the Ghost range is as good as you have heard. I love my Spider. Its huge to look at but stupidly easy to align and the insert is fantastic and gets the ball rolling so easy.

Wish I could justify upgrading my Rossa Fontana to the Ghost version as I really love look and has worked on a practice green. Whilst the old one is working though I really cannot justify it. If I ever win some vouchers in a comp at my club or get enough Tesco points then I may have to buy one but unti then

i bought a raylor earlier this year to replace my spider - i wanted something more 'upright'

gave it 6 weeks but it just didnt do it for me - its now sitting in the hall...back to my tried and trusted spider ;)

Have they done away with the "Pure Roll" insert for that model?

I like the look of the Raylor but wouldn't even entertain it if it came with that insert.

I have the Daytona version of the ghost and have found it much easier to use than my beloved Ping Anser 2. Still miss the odd putt that I should make, but the idiot holding the club is responsible for that.:eek:

I tried a Ghost Spider today.

Absolutely loved it.....

Only thing odd though was it seemed to roll a little shorter than my Monza Corsa.
