High dollar putters

[GolfNut57]

Just curious about this. I saw where the red squarish looking Taylormade putter that some pros are using runs $300 at the local Golf HQ. No way in hell would I pay that much for one but would anyone else here do so? Heck I didn't even like paying $100 plus for the Oddysey putter I use.

I have a SC I only bought because I had gift cards from some tournaments.  It looks good but I still suck at putting.

So I am guessing you voted No? lol

IMO, you're better off putting that money towards lessons, than an uber expensive putter.

I was wanting a Scotty Cameron putter because that's what all the pros use till I saw the price.  $400.  The guy at the store told me I'd pay for that in not time in the money games we play and I told him no way in hell because we don't play for that kind of money.  Ping has a new one out for $125 or so.  Think I'll keep what I have.

I didn't vote.  Because my distance is actually more consistent.  But I still have a bad stroke.   I have a tendency to leave the face w little open.  Someone told me to play with weights because I consistently miss in same spots.  I love the feel of the face of this SC as well. So I'm kind of Inbetween.  I had a ping before this one and used it for 7-10 years.  It was your average putter and would probably say a cheapie was as good as it.

I've been using an old Taylor Made Rossa Daytona putter that I bought new about 15 years ago.  I think it was about $75 then.  Best club in my bag and unless I lose it or break it, it'll be the last putter I ever buy.

I got an Odyssey white hot center shaft #5 back around 2001. It fits my stroke and my eye. I've never seen or touched another putter I like more. I think if you really like your putter then it doesn't matter how much it costs. But I have real big hang ups on club aesthetics. I like a smaller traditional shaped driver, thin topline and sole on the irons, etc

I would agree with this. If you put in enough practice with it I dare say you could putt just as well with a flat rock tied to a stick as you could with one of the mega hundred dollar flatsticks. To me the putter is the last club in the bag where a higher price would guarantee better results.

Truth. Nicklaus won a bunch of money rolling a bullseye.

I putted better today with my 60 degree titleist.  It was about a $100.  Ha, but seriously I did.
