I advise you to ignore the hype and it you like the putter and it fits your stroke the it is the best putter for you. People will point to tour presence as an indicator of quality. Because a putter costs >$500 doesn't make it any better than a putter that is It is about what price point they believe that can sell putters. The price probably has nothing to do with quality. The feel/sound can be influenced by how much of the face comes into contact with the ball(groove pattern), type of metal, and face thickness.
A putter is basically a piece of metal hitting a ball.
The only important thing is that you like it. What feels/sounds good to one player may be horrible to another. You don't think the quality has dropped-off too much since the mid 2000s? Seems to me that the original Rife putters retailed around $200, so I'm curious why they are able to offer at $99.įeel is a personal thing and is actually sound related. It definitely felt amazing, but I've also never rolled a lot of the premium putters like Scotty Cameron or EVNROLL.
