Phew. There's hope for me yet. I thought it had something to do with technique.

BTW, what brand/type was the Prize Putter?

i am in the same boat as Finnie.....if its only a confidence thing i may make it...if its technique..i am farked

Golf in Thailand was great - young female caddies, a drinks kiosk every 3 or 4 holes and the 19th hole meant something really interesting.

Banging big drives is good but hitting greens is what really counts.

Nah, hitting greens with your drives is what really counts.

Yup, hopefully next spring. It was bad enough being a newbie at Kemper, but I was doomed when the winds hit us. Rah can hit the ball low, but damn near all of my shots are sky balls. I gotta learn how to hit punch shots, but I am planning on buying a set of nice, new irons and getting some lessons later this summer. I've never had any lessons and I figure my inconsistency driving the ball is a mechanical problem that can be corrected by a club pro.

At least it's better technology. But I'm still convinced that confidence is what makes a person a good putter.

I agree, sometimes I don't have clue when I'm putting. It's like all of a sudden I have absolutely no idea how hard to hit the ball.
I know from the few times I've gotten a hot streak putting that confidence is very important.

Fin, it's Taylor Made, but I'd have to look at it for numbers, etc...

That's where the Arabs used to go - please see your doctor.

Okay. As long as it wasn't one of those really really really expensive Scottie McGregor ones.

Tell me about it. I understand pendulum motion, I understand hands and wrists and arms and shoulders operating as a unit. Trying to achieve that without loading up on tension is my challenge.

[Berzerker]

Rah said it's a pretty expensive putter and it feels like it, well balanced and all.

Shyte, I still use the putter I got with my first set of clubs I bought for $35 bucks. (the whole set) If I miss a 4 foot putt , its not the putters fault

[rah]

I won the putter at a golf outing. IN A PUTTING CONTEST. Which is silly. Who wins a putting contest and then wants to change to a new putter. Equally silly was the winner of the long drive contest won a driver.

I don't know what people think when they set these things up, but it's very common, just like stupidity.

[Hydey]

why did Rah look at me when he said stupidity

[rah]

That didn't cross my mind, until you mentioned it.

That, And the last outing I was at, the winner won a new set of clubs. When he accepted he was laughing and said, I just played the best round of my life, why would I want to change clubs.
