I have both of these and the biggest difference BY FAR is the weight of the heads. The original one is only like 305g, 50ish grams lighter than modern putter heads. I managed to get about 27g of lead tape onto the bottom of the OG and that makes it feel much closer to a modern putter.

Um, in the test he showed that the original was slightly better than the modern day..........why alter the original to perform like the crappy one ? I mean if I had a ping eye two 2 iron that i hit down the middle 9/10 and a Titleist t200 2 iron that I hit 7/10 fairways the same distance, why would I tweek the ping eye 2 to play like the T200 ?

So what you're saying is. "Its not the putter, but the person putting" that makes the difference.

I have an original anser which I used to love. At the time it was the most expensive club in my set. I’ve had about 10 putters since but I might take it out for a run thanks to your video.

I've been gaming a Pal 2 BeCu, the firmer metal putters still play well, especially with a soft ball and slow spring & fall greens

All the technology throughout the bag and the putter is still the only club where technique really is everything

I refuse to believe I'm the reason I putt so poorly, I need another new putter!🤪

Great review very interesting I think it shows that it really is the user skill rather than the equipment.

Still loving my Ping Pal 2, that my brother found for me for 6$ aud in a thrift store.

Nice vid. I think the weathered look with a smooth leather grip would be a very calming and enjoyable putting experience.

i have that same og ping in the bag, have had it for 50 yrs of playing, l have tried so many putters over the years but always go back to this one. I like the lighter feel of it especially on very fast greens. I found it caddying in 1969 at the Country Club in Brookline , was in the bushes off the 18th green. guess it didnt work for someone that day hahahaah. just had a new ping grip put on it

Great video. I'd love more old version new comparisons. For example I have a f9 driver and would love to see it compared to modern ones.

Interesting that the original putter is still holding its own. Maybe the testing should have alternated putter and hit a white ball for one putter and a yellow ball for the other?

@randyposs6281 Месяц назад

I got the 66 scottsdale that supposed to cost 1500 dollars

@normanrussell10 3 месяца назад

I still have an Anser from around 1969. I find the head is too light for me now and I prefer my Scotty. Still looks great though. Might dig it out for another trip down memory lane!

@nigelhf1966 3 месяца назад

Hi Joe, I think it is time you ditched the toe up putter for a pld anser. I love an anser putter, but I use a 32" putter and ping putters don't generally have removable weights, so at that length, I have to cover the sole in lead tape. I would love a pld anser with adjustable weights.

£419 Vs £68? - a no brainer!

@neilgardner8066 3 месяца назад

Not expensive enough…only £419! Need a Bettinardi!

@lawbinson 3 месяца назад

I love a lighter putter

Stop saying retro. I'm 62 and use the 30 year anniversary Anser from the 90s with an original Ping grip. Made over 150 feet of putts in 9 holes one day. My 15 years of caddying at a small course in Augusta, Georgia may play into my green reading ability and touch.

Great test I think the Ping Anser design is Brilliant👍 ( can’t think of another design that hasn’t changed in 50years plus) all the other manufacturers have copied the design, from grip to head shape still the best design👍, I’m surprised the new Anser didn’t perform better in your test, I’m pretty sure my Anser 2 Cadence would feel better than the Original (and Perform better) Thanks Dickey
