Are you a Jack Nicklaus style putter or just short?

Nope. I still use a Ping Anser from the 70s.


is it stamped with phoenix or scottsdale?


they're great putters..i think i have 3 of them but haven't used them in years


I just don't play enough to really get used to a new putter. I've had the grip replaced like 4 times since my dad handed it down to me in the late 90s.


i bought a cameron around 2005 and haven't used anything since..im almost embarrassed to say that i have never changed the grip..its so worn down but i love it

i change every putter grip to the classic Ping Man Blackout. i love it. my bro makes fun of me every time we play together (he's on the trendy super-thick putter grip train)

I like the fatter grip. Helps me keep my arms straight.

confession: i've been using a baseball grip for years but finally decided to use interlocking fingers on more than a few holes..i was making better contact, but couldn't control direction
