Hey all! Just curious - How long did it take for you to find a go-to putter? For actual putting - Not throwing, I have my two favorite throwing putters - a Lat64 Pure in Retro Burst and a Prodigy Pa4 in 350.
I have only been playing a year and a half or so and have tried a lot of putters for actual putting! They all feel decent for the most part but none just scream "pick me!". I usually buy a few molds and then hit my practice basket hard for a week or two then take them on the coarse. Bead, micro bead, beadless, deep, shallow - feels like I tried maybe too many!
My current putters in no particular playing order: (I guess I am a "spush" putter - definitely not pure spin like Simon but I also dont just loft it up there)
Deputy
Magic
P2
Aviar
Judge
Swan
Dagger
Challenger
Ion
Wizard
Harp
Colt
Out of those my LEAST favorite - Wizard (could never get comfortable with it putting), Harp, Colt, Swan. Those last three I actually like throwing for upshots but hated putting with them.
Dagger and Challenger are new in the past few days and getting used to the deeper feeling dish but I have large hands with long fingers so it feels pretty good, just a lot different.
Prior to those two the putters I carried most often were the Judge and Deputy for a beaded or beadless feel depending on how I was feeling that day. The others felt "fine" but none screamed at me to carry them all the time.
So did a putter just click with you one day and then you stocked up and were happy ever after or do I just need to pick a mold and stick with it?!
BTW - I love putting. I practice at home several times a week from all distances from 6ft on out to around 50'. I also like playing putter only rounds (with my Pa4 or Pure). I figure as long as I can stay accurate from circle 2 in that will help my score more than bombing a big hyzer.
