    Anyone else purchase this yet? I started using the level 33 the other night and it's the best putter I've ever used in a golf sim.  So precise, so forgiving...nice slow meter.  

    Precision

    I just got it,  the higher leveled one and like it alot.

     

    However, to me, the meter doesn't seem any slower than the rossa.

    This putter is just ripping strokes off my game.  I'm all over the hole now from 30-50 feet with consistency.  

    Just an unbelievable putter with great balance and precision.

    I'm starting to like it but as mentioned above WGT has lied about the meter speed.

    I never understood the balance factor - how do you notice the difference there?

    Basically:  How forgiving the putter is on my shots when I miss the ding.  The more "balance" the putter has the less of an angle the shot tends to go off center.

    Sorry for the (sort of) hijack..

    Opinions of players who have owned/used both the Rossa and the Odyssey L70+?

    Aside from being an Odyssey user in real life being a big reason I wanted this putter...

     

    It has all of the great qualities of the high-leveled putters but with the Rossa scales.  I always ended up going back to the Rossa, but 99% certain that won't be the case this time.  

     

    And I can still use my Miss ding -"crutch" in close to the holes.  But noticeably better from further away putts.   Absolutely love this putter.  Surveys and videos along with the selling of some old gear I wasn't using anymore made the purchase price not seem so bad.

    Ok... but if 'balance' is forgiveness, what is then the forgiveness factor?

    Forum search works again:

    Hi Pebbles,

    Balance works with the putter's precision rating and represents consistency throughout the different distance increments of your putter.  The higher the balance rating, the more you can rely on the ball consistently going the distance you've struck your putt, especially so on longer putts.  Balance also works with forgiveness in a very similar manner to help reign in the effect of off-center hits, also making them react more consistently on longer putts.

    Hope that answers your question. =)
