Rick Shiels BRUTAL review made brand change FOREVER! 

When your channel is big enough, you dont need sponsors or brand deals to keep the lights on. In all categories of youtube, you can very much tell when a channel gets big enough to forgo the normal brand deal/ sponsored videos and their content gets a lot more honest. Things shift greatly, when companies feel they need to get you products vs the need of the youtuber to get their hands on products to review.

Just don't search "Rusty Putter" on Urban Dictionary...

Or a band: Rusty Putter and the Broken Tees!

Or an old car 😂😂😂

Get over it.

This is a RU-vid comment section. Just name the bloody store you had the fitting at FFS

​@@SCUBAsTeEb22if it's a store you've had good experience with in the past and think it might just be one lazy or rude employee then I understand not wanting to slag them publicly, just hope they gave some feedback to the people in charge

​@zekebones34 probably Club Champion. That place wouldn't even give me the time of day regarding fitting or new clubs.

If you think a fitting is going to changed your game. You will believe anything. Fitting is like taking a base model car vs an f1 car. A normal driver is just fine driving the baseline car. Giving the f1 car to the normal driver will give little improvements or none at all the skill level needed to gain all the upgrades will be above that drivers level. However if you give a f1 driver a base line car they are still going to be driving in better than that average driver. Then give the f1 car to the f1 driver and they will show why these little tweaks for a high skill level driver is needed for them. Now little improvements like new brakes and tires will definitely make the average driver better. Ie getting fit for length, lie angle, proper shaft flex. This type of putter fitting is like giving someone an f1 car. A normal PGA, Golf Galaxy, club champion fitting is more than acceptable for most golfers level and equates to better tires, brakes etc. It's not gonna change your game. So one shelling out this money should know this are in for the experience of the fit rather than the final product. With that being said yes it needs improvement but it's not going to change your game and make you a tour level putter over night.

The fitting process cost 2000, not the putter

@@Deadhorseflogger I know. I watched the full episode. They attached an iPhone to the club to do the fitting.

​@@Deadhorsefloggerthe fitting process was only a few hundred £. Pretty sure he says so in the original putter review video.

@@Chris54321 a £2000 iPhone I’ll have you know. 🤣

@@chrislaing8444 Well. I am never going too Europe. Everything there is too expensive. Lol

It's 20 tons.

Pa dum pah!

@@mrrobb4242 you might want to check your math.

​@kenbrown2808 I'm guessing by the fact you said math instead of maths you aren't from the UK. A ton in the UK is 100 × 20 =2000 so think you will find I am correct😂

@@mrrobb4242 "ton, unit of weight in the avoirdupois system equal to 2,000 pounds (907.18 kg) in the United States (the short ton) and 2,240 pounds (1,016.05 kg) in Britain (the long ton). The metric ton used in most other countries is 1,000 kg, equivalent to 2,204.6 pounds avoirdupois." you're thinking of a hundredweight, which i 100 pounds in the US and something like 112 in the UK. so again, check your math. you only need one for this.

Exactly but rich people will pay and that’s what golf brands take advantage of

Same here! I’ve been looking for them on eBay. Maybe find a used one for cheaper.

Fellow Canuck here, and I fully agree with you, eh.

BULLY FOR YOU.

Killing it… 😂😂😂

5. Just hit it in such a way that it goes in

I think you have to match your putter stroke to the type putter you have I’ve just bought a Wilson “the bean” mallet type cost £80 it has heavier head than my Ping blade putter and all have to do is let it swing like a pendulum using the head weight once you have got used to it’s feel and distance control… it really comes into its own on long lag putts….it’s also face balanced as opposed to my blade which works on slight arc stroke already seen benefits down between 2-3 putts less on average in a round last 10 rounds 👍can just improve putting yourself through trial and error seeking what works and what doesn’t for you and improving technique

I spent an hour or so putting with the new lab putter that looks like some kind of ancient Egyptian symbol yesterday. Ngl, I was blown away. Was so easy to hit my lines. It felt a bit softer than I like, but I can’t argue with the results. Told my wife about it when I got home and she just rolled her eyes. I bought a PLD last summer that I couldn’t control and then a SC in the fall to replace it. I think I’ll wait for my birthday before I start begging lol. It is hideous though. 😂

@@kennethbnorris the df3 is pretty nice. I played with one at the PGASS. I have the mezz max Broomstick and I love it.

You are correct, fitting is £200, putter is £1800. Purchase of putter is NOT mandatory.

Ok, but considering that a putter isn't much more than a solid cast or milled hunk of steel with carefully considered weighting, there is MUCH less technology than what you would find in a driver, which at their peak is still considerably less expensive. This whole expensive putter nonsense is just another way to fleece people of their money.

That might actually be worse. £1800 for a putter is impossible to justify. Even if the cost is reasonable for what went into making it being milled uniquely for the person, the returns are likely so diminishing it simply doesn't matter unless maybe, MAYBE you are a top x00 or

​@@hubombaI also HIGHLY doubt that it is a "unique one-of-one" design of a putter. That's not how businesses work. They're not custom engineering and machining a club to every person, they're just matching up a few different profiles and parts from a preselected table of options and building the clubs in the same factory as every other club sold in the stores. These "custom" clubs are about as custom as a factory "custom" Harley Davidson.
