View Poll Results: Putter Choices

Topflite_d2 · 07-19-2007, 07:14 PM

Hello after a horrible showing at a local tournament today I am thinking about going more deep into the sport. I plan on buying every club one at a time as I get the money. Everything but the irons that is. I always hear that the putter is the most important club in the bag. So I have four different clubs to choose from. All from Nevada bob's golf, and all the same price. the choices are:
1. Odyssey White Hot 2 Ball Blade: 139.99
2. Nike OZ Black T100
3. Nike OZ Black T130
4. Nike OZ Black T160
Please anyone who has tried these give me your input. Thank you

Hard to go wrong with the Odyssey..

agreed with 300yards...but find out if you want a blade or mallet then decide your length...I have always been a fan of blades and standard length shafts and rear shafted putters...idk of any great putters that have used much else...that come to my mind

Well I am thinking about going w/ the odyssey. I have a mallet right now and I don't really like it, it seems like I always come up short w/ it. Then I have a really old blade and I can't aim and it seems too small so the odyssey seems like a cross between them. At Nevada Bob's I can try them before I buy them so that is what i will do. But any other opinions are still welcome.

Yeah, they're nice..I had one for several years, and I really liked it! They come in all kinds of styles, so you should be able to find that fits you.

Gah i played today on some slow greens i wanted to break my scotty cuz i could not get it to the hole...think i'm gonna try a sledgehammer next time.

Thats would be a good thing to use I might pick one of those up, a lot cheaper too. I seem to play all slow greens and I almost need a blade type putter. Once I couldn't make it so guess what my putter got wrapped around my leg. And to this day there is a little extra bend in the shaft. LOL oh well.

i guess i'd vote for a shaft length analysis... (i didn't vote due to lack of preference/experience)

if youre in the market to save with performance in a mallet, go with an older ping model. i love the anser 2 and the anser design is still in play somewhere on most pro tours (where preference outways $$$$$$$ and the insert phenom).

but i would possibly switch to a scotty cameron model if i could afford to see the benifits over the anser 2 beyond the showroom.

edit: i'm fairly certain a typical sledge hammer would have little glare; you might be on to something.
