I am better putting from off the green with a mallet.

Is it bc of the big profile? More weight?
I don’t seem to be able to get the ball rolling with a blade from off the green .

I am also better at lagging with a mallet.

I guess I should switch back, but with the blade I’m making a bunch of 4-10 ft putts.

Mallets for me.

I currently have-

TM spider Tour Z
Sub 70 Sycamore CS

I just picked up a Bettennardi Inovai 6.0 Slant neck.

It was marked $299.00 with the cellophane still on it. I asked a kid about it, he said looked at the sticker and said it is that price, I didn't argue.

3 or 4 iron works really well off the green. Choke up as if you’re putting and give it a good putt stroke. If you do it right you’ll kick the ball up in the email just enough to skip over the rough stuff and the backspin will slow down the ball as it releases

This is my go to but I like a 7 for the bump and run. Chipping less than 50 yards is absolutely killing my game.

I use my hybrid quite often. Some of our lies are just too tight or the ball sinks in the rough.
