Thoughts on the L92 Spider Ghost putter

  Hullo fellow golfers,

  I'll be reaching L92 in a few weeks (just reached 91). I'm one of the players who always try and ding the putts, so will the putter be worth the 2,400 credits? I'm looking for the opinion only of those who have tried the L92 putter and use the dinging method. 

  Thanks, and a Happy New Year to all but the multi-accounters, sandbaggers etc... ;)

  Well sir. I loved my Rossa and have always dinged to win. But when i saw the specs of the new ghost I thought I just had to give it a chance. It is expensive so I thought I'd give it 50 rounds to give it a fair trial. At first it took a while to get used to because it has awkward scales, they aren't doubled like the Rossa. Well after the trial I still didn't think it was any better than the Rossa but I guessed if I changed back I'd have to relearn that one over again, so I stuck with the Spider. Anyway I don't think it was worth the money as my putting is no different from before. Good luck on whatever you decide.

  I swear by it. The longer you use it, the more you appreciate it. You already have the 66 Ghost so learning a tighter version of it shouldn't be an issue.

  You might give a yell to Hpurey. Hes has them both and the 92 is giving him fits. He went back to the 66 for now.

  LOL......I'll have you know, I also have the level 35 lol.     The L92 is an awesome putter,  I just need to teach myself to ding putt more betta.  

   

  The level 66 is just fine for me for now though.....  It's a little less ding-needy ;-)

  I have both of them. I bought the Spider (92) because I thought it would improve my putting. After playing with it for a month or so, I didn't see much of a difference. I went back to the Rossa for a few days and noticed that the forgiveness was a little better on the Spider. So in my opinion the Spider is a little better. Not 2400 credits betters though. The Rossa costs 725, So I'd say the Spider is probably worth 1000. I also came to the conclusion that my putting sucks with any putter...lol

  Sgt....If you are an above average putter; then indeed the Ghost will make you better...however if you are an average or below average putter, my sense is that you will notice little if any difference...Harve

  Went ahead and sold back the Level 35 and 66 ghost spiders.   For a big whopping 800credits (combined)    

  That forced me to play only the L92 and must say,  I am liking it more and more the more I get used to it.   

   

  If you are a ding putter then it will be well worth it I think.
