A lot of people seem to get this wrong regarding toe hang. A putter with a lot of toe hang does not encourage more arc in your stroke. It actually reduces rotation of the putter head to keep someone with a lot of arc in their stroke from over-rotating the club face. It is suited to a person with a lot of arc, but for the opposite reason. The weight in the toe resists rotation, it doesn't promote it.
Joe, you are such a great show host (?) and your knowledge and personality really comes through. I only hope you still can find the time to make videos with Dan and the others!
I was just listening to this review and thinking wow this dude is covering all the bases really well, then during the Cruiser review I thought geez he sounds like Joe the Pro! Brilliant choice of expert host Golf Monthly, this guy has skills👍🏽
I ended up with my osdessy df1 by picking up and swinging every style of putter I could. The df1 felt like it had the least resistance to my natural swing and felt pretty great off the shit old balls I tend to use as a high handicapper.
Wonder if the guys at Odyssey could advise on the following. Managed to lay my hands on a rare LH Odyssey PT82 Prototype but at 35" it's an inch too long! If I get it shortened to 34" would it significantly effect the swing weight and if so, what could be done to compensate for this?
Been using face balanced for years when I should have been using toe hang 😂 Dan Hendrickson made a comment that face balanced miss left for him, which is what I was experiencing. Got the ping app for my phone which showed I have an arc. The app is free and worth using. Alignment is easier for me with an Anser style putter. Good video Joe🎉
Yes, I made one structural mistake for roughly 18 years, thinking that increasingly higher MOI putters would fix my issue squaring the face at impact. Finally, a lie angle balanced putter fixed that for me. If not for this episode's sponsor, you could have mentioned that it's not just the broomstick helping Will and Lucas :-)
According to Sam put lab I should be using face balanced putter but I putt well with and prefer a putter with extreme toe hang, I think it’s important to use what you’re comfortable with. I’m very skeptical about how much a few grams being moved by a grown man at slow speed can change the angle of the putter face
