I have 2 scotty camerons i have used for the last 20 years or so (red x and kombi s) and i have never been this exited about a putter. I thought of i was going to be a shitty putter for my whole life, but this gives me hope. Some people say the 2.1 is ugly but i think it is 1 of the most beautiful,confident inspiring putters i have ever seen. I cant wait to get my swing video back. Sam hahn you look like you would have went to grateful dead shows.
I have a directed force putter and it's truly the best option available. Completely changed my putting from defensive to confident and aggressive believing that I can make any putt.
I swear these putters are made by witchcraft lol. Tried my buddy’s DF 2.1 for the first time yesterday, and just like in Bill’s demonstration it didn’t matter where I hit the ball off the face. Dead center, off the toe, or off the heel, the ball started on its line, rolled true, and fell over the center of the cup. It was unreal.
I have the 2.1 broomstick version for side saddle after many other side saddle and conventional putters. Never had such an effective putter. Balanced so well that I putt while looking at the hole. Remarkable
@@DrBhrettMcCabe Played my first round with it on Saturday. It was a ‘better ball’ so I didn’t putt on every green. I putted on 13 greens and shot 19 putts
Great interview. Very interesting hearing the story behind it and how it came about. Inventing something different to the market is awesome. When i first started reading up about them a week ago i thought how ugly, id never use that and was interested in trying the mezz.1 . After watching a lot of positive reviews on the putters, (Mainly the direct force) I started thinking, screw how it looks if it works! I have a DF on its way. Looking forward to seeing how it goes.
The laws of physics being what they are, it would stand to reason that if it's smaller it will be less forgiving than the "full-size" 2.1 -- as is the B.2 (which still has the advantage of being Lie Angle Balanced) but a smaller sweet spot. I tried both, but settled on the DF 2.1 for all the forgiveness I can get.
Real great insight this. I have been following this putter for sometime and have now found an authorised UK fitter so due to visit them early next month following national lock down here in the UK. I think the fitting element is integral with this particular putter and is highly recommended by L.A.B. I am hoping after years of playing to finally find something that I can both work with and leave in the bag for many years to come. With regard to tour use I think only certain players will go for the look of the putter which is slightly unfair in my opinion when you take into consideration how far we have moved away from what would have been considered conventional over the years.
I have the original 2.0 and then switched to the 2.1. It has the Stability shaft and 3 lines on the face. I get crap every time I meet someone new and did from my friends for a while. Until I started making everything and/or always lagging it close and not 3 putting. Now my friends don’t give me crap and the new people who do, seem to ask to try it after about 9 holes. Only issue is have is the size but not what you think. It’s the size of it in the bag. Takes up so much room and also the grip is so thick it blocks other clubs in the bag. Bought a putter bag clip and now no issues.
2.1 on the way - I average 13 GIRs but shoot ho-hum 75s. Putting is my nemesis and the aspect of the game I practice the most! Hoping for that ah-ha moment.
Clint, as a user for over a year now I will pass along that you want the bottom tip of the shaft in the middle of your stance (so ball will be forward), and LIGHT grip pressure (practice with your thumbs off the putter). I believe you will be well pleased. I find it to be the best thing on the planet for getting the ball to rattle in the bottom of the cup in the least amount of strokes possible.
I think the twist he is referring to is prior to contact and not due to the hit. If it had twisted prior to contact, the putt would have missed his line, which it did not appear to. The putter is balanced directly in the center for that lie angle, so after contact that is made outside of the middle, there is a moment applied that will make the putter rotate after the ball has already been hit. The contact of the ball creates a torque, but he is showing that the putting motion itself does not produce a torque because it is weighted in a way that the mass of the club on either end of the balance point is laid out in a way where there is not a moment applied or rather the same force due to gravity is applied to either side of the balance point. I don't really like his explanation for it given what I think he was trying to demonstrate, but the physical theory of the club is still sound. It's actually really clever and I have their MEZZ.1 on the way, but unfortunately it isn't going to help me read greens.
This putter, even though heavier, feels light in your hands. I got fitted for one, picking it up in the next week, and I was amazed on how "light" it was. I will be wearing the man cave rug out this winter putting with it
Tell me why aren’t the entire PGA tour using them? There is no magic putter, well there is it called practice with what you have got and save your money.
@@colinc.8742 sponsorship dollars. There you go. Most are club manufacturer sponsored and Callaway wasn’t smart enough. Give it time it’s a new product. Or go practice. Either way it’s about the money at the top level. There is your answer chief.
@@aubreyharris166 Aukbrey, I am not descended from a red indian so please don’t call me chief. The two greatest putter in recent golf history were Jack N. and Tiger. There were because unless you were brilliant putters you could not win countless majors. Have a look at the putters they used and are still using during their entire career.
@@colinc.8742 ok chief. Adam Scott is a Titleist sponsored player. After the lab golf putter he got a brand new Scotty Cameron Proto type. Wonder how it’s balanced? Lab golf isn’t Titleist. No where near the money or industry clout. Literally the pga is all money based or there wouldn’t be one. How does a brand new company formed in 2019 compete with Titleist or their group? It’s literally about what they are payed to play. Are you new to golf in general?
I laughed at it and then borrowed one for a round and had 27 putts. See this excellent TXG review ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YYlWsTXol0k.html
