  MainzMan:

  Edit: I see you were talking about the L70 one, the L96 is even better.  One seriously good putter.

  Decision made and glad you are pleased.  I would like to think I would have more will power, but I would probably have bought it if I were L96.

  Looking at the new Nike the half dot extra precision would just be offset, for me, by using the longer scale, half dot less balance,compared to my L70 Versa. .....In theory...Maybe...... 

  Idol curiosity do you find the meter the same or slightly faster (as advertised) than the L70 Versa? Think some one thought it maybe faster (only maybe).

  Cheers

  High level ghost was probably the best putter in the game until the pricey new Versa arrived, which is now the best, but not clear if the modest improvement is worth money (probably only if one has lots of spare credits... :))

  High level ghost, L70 Versa or high level Max are all better than Rossa. Of course if you always used Rossa, it will take time to adapt (24 hrs of rental time are probably not enough for that), but once you do, it's clearly better. With these putters, unlike with Rossa, 10 footers are more consistent and (mostly straight) 20 footers are no longer at chance level... Also 5 footer misdings are usually in.

  Right on gedi. I am noticing this in the very short time I have used it. I'm not a 6, 7 , 10 game "a day" player,,lol , waaay to busy with kids, friends and work for that. This is the reason I hesitated to upgrade, but at the same time I was tired of missing birdie putts by "inches", either left or right of the hole. Hey, if I can save  2, 3, maybe 4 strokes a game every now and again then it will have been worth the investment.
