well i've bought most putters...drivers...irons in the 3 years i've been here.

i sold the other putters back cause they were pants.....now i buy a putter which is advertised as 1/2 the speed as the rossa but it turns out it's the same as rossa due to a wgt slight of hand in the advertising dept.....so what are people paying $25 for ?

either fix the speed OR change the speed on the image in the proshop to match what folks are gonna get because this is solely what they are relying on when buying...otherwise it's just wrong to shaft people.

What the Specs say is always not true...

The Max Balls are getting faster... I have to go back to my nikes and come back to the Max's to get the slow meter again.....lol

I was thinking of Renting the putter... now I know the mter speed is faster the the Rossa... I might pass on that...

Is the New Putter good for miss the ding style putting?

-Roger

I'm a miss ding putter and i love this one. Think my last rounds been 27,27,26,26,56,57 have to give the credit to the putter on this one.

I've had the Rossa from day dot... actually, a few months after that...lol.

Great advise from everybody.... As i've used the Rossa for so long, I've got the hang of the Distance scales...

There is no difference in meter speeds between the new putter and the Rossa.... that's bad advertising isn't it.....lol

I'm a miss the ding putter as you know.... the line of the Odyssey is tighter than the Rossa.... meaning the Rossa you have to click wider..... Odyssey.. it keeps it's line to the hole very good.

Geez... the Odyssey is a very good putter.... aprt from the price.

There is one hole that is my most hated hole.... Cabo #1... from 5ft out it can be hit or miss with the putt..... new putter.. even though as soon as I clicked, I thought nope, that is not in... but straight in the middle for bird... next time I play it will mis it....lol

Very good Putter for Miss the Ding Style..... maybe an expensive Rossa.... but what the heck...lol

I was waiting for the 92 spider having had all the others but when this came out it seemed a better buy. Having only played a couple of rounds I think it's great already especially on long putts. Once I get used to the change in scales then I expect the scores to drop nicely, at least I hope so.

Well, I'm convinced, starter putter for me. Longest putt 47 feet, 36.93% 1 putt, 7.8% 3 putts or more.

Sorry but if you're going to use your stats to prove something they have to be rather better than that.

Couldn't have worded that better myself and your comment about WGT going deaf is bang on also.

I bought that putter purely for the meter speed, the 30 scale was the clincher but it was all about speed. I find it slower than the 92 ghost so I guess I can't complain that much, but no way is it as slow as it should be.

Something has been altered for sure, I remember the beginner and starter putters had a meter that was so slow you could go and make a coffee in the time it took the meter to move. Now? It flies along at what feels like twice the speed.

It's a very underhand tactic and a very expensive one at that. If nothing else it shows just how much of a bargain the Rossa is and the level WGT should have kept their prices.

To be honest I can't believe it's still for sale, considering what they did with the z satin wedges. It's got to be the last properly priced/performing club on the game.
