I don't plan on playing this weekend, but I will probably hit the range.

Couple of friends and I play on Wednesday's. Or at least, they have been playing and I am starting to play too. But my round this last time was my best in a couple of years and I'm excited to get back out there.

I'm going to hit the range this weekend and try out a couple of things but not going to spend the better part of a day playing golf... got one kid going off to camp tomorrow and another getting surgery next week, so I'll be spending some time with them.

You fellas hit 'em straight and drink lots of water...

I played with a guy who used one, he said it took him awhile to get used to the speed. But apparently once you get used to it putts inside 8 feet are almost automatic, longer putts are tough he said

I don't have any issues with speed, I putt better across the board with it

How long did it take you to get used to the new stroke?

I have an odyssey sabretooth belly putter I'm looking to get rid of for $75. I couldn't get the hang of it. Putt much better with my Cleveland milled.

I have a Scotty studio and I like it a lot. But every time I use a belly putter in a practice area, I sink everything. I'd like to try that putter out

I switched to one earlier this year. I was a good putter with the short putter from probably 15 feet in, but I had a ton of speed problems. The belly putter has helped me with speed mainly because there is only one release point on the putter. It takes getting used to though.

I'm 6', play a 43"
