I would jump off a bridge before I pulled that out in public

It’s as soft as any pressure washed odyssey, that’s for sure

I accidentally gave you an upvote. Throw that thing away.

Sad to say but I am still using a Zebra mallet from 30+ years ago. Saw a Scotty Cameron I started to buy at Fighting Joe course in Muscle Shoals that felt good but I just like that old Zebra. I can putt from off the green well with it too.

Got a question I wanted to ask without starting a new thread.

I’ve got an odyssey white hot pro 2.0

I’m a decent putter to be new at this, but I’m not consistent. My speed is usually pretty close, but when I miss I miss a few inches right- nearly every time. First, any drills or things to try to correct this with my current putter, and second is there a different style Putter that may work better with my current stroke.

May be something as simple as playing it a touch too far back in your stance and pushing it right

Move it around in your stance and practice with it

I’ll try playing it forward more but feel like I play it pretty far forward already. I’d say just forward of my left eye

Could be your aim or leaving your face open. Here's a good video where they talk about how some putters can influence your aim and stroke. LINK

“Straight back , Straight through” make sure you are not taking it back inside

Not necessarily true. Plenty of great putters use arc strokes. Having the correct putter for your stroke is a big deal.

Tiger uses an arc stroke and takes the putter back inside. That's why he's always talking about releasing the putter head and squaring it up at impact

Yes those level golfers can but that is probably not the best approach for most of us here . Too many moving parts IMO. To each his own I guess . Putting is about the only part of my game that is not deteriorating at this point so I stick with what works for me

I agree with this part. If a SBST stroke is natural and works then absolutely stick with it. But even for amateurs like us, people have natural arc strokes. Trying to keep it SBST when it's unnatural can cause more problems and not actually fix anything.

Putting is all confidence if you have a decent stroke ( whatever that may be)
