  Ooo man I hated that putter. I was so stubborn that I bought it right away without renting it first but I got rid of that shity thing day after I got it. Very bad putter with very bad meter too..

  Love my Daytona although I'm not the best putter ;0

  I seem to recall that when you first got it, you said you couldn't miss with the damn thing, anywhere you aimed it went in.  Wtf happened?

  That's a very good question Chas! I really don't know what happened! I did start using the miss the ding thing for countering the breaks and it was very hit or miss . . . so I blamed it on the Ghost! Back to using my trusty Rossa and moving the marker around! Much happier! :)

  Sorry, a matter of opinion.  For my money, the 2010 Redwood is the best putter on the site.

  I think it's a matter of play styles.  If you use the aiming cursor and play to the ding on every putt, the Ghost may be best.  But if you are like most on the greens and play some aim and some feel, or all feel, the Redwood is a better putter.

  Wouldn't swap ghost for anything. But remember this made up verse when thinking of buying it LOL:

  .If you hit ding, putt goes in,

  a fraction either side, damn it goes wide......

  Its advertised as same as redwood in stats, but beleive me, my putting has got a hell of a lot better with ghost, sinking a lot more 20+ footers, and 12+ footers are now as easy as 5 footers(on some holes lol)

  I had them both and once you get it down the Ghost is fabulous, especially using the higher scales for the smaller putts. It does work ok by missing but not as good as dinging. Here's what 2 moves (about 1/2" on the meter) on the 300 foot scale does.  ;-)

  i just pick out some of the best video golf players, with some of the best putting stats on this site...20 to be precise. The results are as follows...17 use the Daytona  and 3 used the ghost. Take from that what you will.

  Yup Griff, pretty much the same stats as the last tournament qualifing session . . . 63% of those who qualified used the Daytona, 13% used the Ghost.
