So, what's all this I hear about the L55 Daytona putter?

  I just upgraded to this as it looked good and I'm salivating over the 4 precision points compared to the 2 I had with my Spider.  But I've read a few things since then regarding it having a glitch with distance on uphill putts.

  Can anyone confirm if this is really a glitch that went unnoticed in testing?  I don't mind falling short on putts if I make the error, but if I just paid money for a putter that literally CANNOT reach the hole on uphill putts, I'm going to be very peeved.

  I've never had a problem with distance on uphill putts and I've owned this putter since a week or so after I joined this site. When you could buy anything regardless of tiers.

  You have the avatar movement distances you need for it? If not just ask.

  If your missing the ding on purpose, this takes away some of the distance, I've noticed.

  I know where you read that and it was because the poster  in that thread, Spitlist,  didn't know you could change the scales. He was putting with whatever scale came up.

  That putter works just fine.  :-)

  Man, I have 3 putters, even the last two supposedly most advanced: Ghost Spider included but I still putt with the Daytona. First I like the 30, 60 feet scales more than 25-50. Second, I was missing more putts with the last level 92 putter than with the beginners.

  Thanks for the feedback.  I like the fact that you can change the range on this putter.  Going to take a few games to get used to my brain working percentages based on 30 and 60 instead of 25 and 50, but I'll get used to it!

  FWIW, every putter can do this, from the Beginner putter all the way to the 92 Ghost.  :-)

  Haha can they?  With I knew that all the times the caddy decided to give me a 100ft putter from the fringe :)
