New Ping putters: shot at 2016 FedEx St. Jude Classic

[matty1802]

Wow, some serious putters right there!

[chinaski]

Are these 100% milled or just skim milled?

 

Precision Milling general indicated cast body and milled face.

 

I'd like to know this too. Was just looking at the previous milled anser offering. Going to wait for these.

Respect

Can't wait to see how the ball feels coming off that face - soft like their other insert putters like the Ketsch - I hope so.

[vjswing]

I would be all over a Zing/Zing 2 in that dark finish!

[jtitleist12]

I'm not a fan of the new face milling on these.

 

Is this the Anser 2 shape that is going to come out under the "Eye Mark" designation? I would much prefer the proto shape that Mark Wilson is using. It has subtle, yet better lines including the milling on the face.

Going off the pictures, you can clearly see milling all down the plumbers necks, bumpers, flange, and cavity. I would bet these are fully milled.

Im guessing 100% milled. Their last milled line was referred to as "precision milled" as well.

Oslo in the dark finsh is tempting.

[dciccoritti]

Just passed by to take another look :-)

[BreakingPar]

Nice looking putters!

 

Joining the line of those waiting to hear a release date

Do the faces look like inserts to anyone else? Hard to tell from the photos, but the way the face frames th eye logo and the rest of the putter head, it looks like it could be an insert.

[Makuakane_Bear]

Love these putters. Really excited to roll a few with them...

[finitewisdom]

My kingdom for a center-shafted Oslo!

Not to me.....maybe it's just that there is a border around the milling making you think it's an insert?

[^m9]

Wow, that Anser 2 in grey! Awesome.

 

I wonder if the Bergen is sort of like a next gen Ketsch.

[No_Doubt_Stout]

Already putting these at the top of the Saving money for list....

[furu]

Bergen is going to be a huge hit here in Bergen :)

[mgholda]

Well done PING! You are doing what Odyssey should be doing with a milled line that a player could play instead of gimmicky looking crap. The new logo will surely make people think they are buying an Odyssey. What a great way to grab business from a company that has way to big of a following for the junk they release.

[BillyZ2]

Did I miss the information, just wondering what the specs are on the mallets as far as weight?

[Towelieeee]

I ask this with every Ping putter release, but I wonder if it'd be possible to order an Anser 2 without the sight line

[david Ad]

No b60 fail, they could have taken my money for 2

[mrobbins]

Sweet looking putters!

[msd71]

The Bergen has received an upgrade.

 

[cgbm]

Yea voss blade black 35" and ill be set.

It would have been great if they released that model. I keep swapping between Anser 2 and my B60 and my last round was great putting-wise with the B60. Maybe I should just stick with it. I would have easily bought one or two vault B60s, as I'd like a backup.

Wait, are you flaming Odyssey, Ping, or both? I honestly can't tell from your post.

 

I think both companies are making great flat sticks these days (edge to Ping :taunt:).

[th6252]

disappointed with the anser 2. was hoping it would share the softer lines of the 1966 and my current cadence.

[Holy Moses]

TR grooves done for? Love the mallets, but I wish they made a mini mallet.

The Ketsch mid is basically a mini mallet. At least it is compared to the regular Ketsch, which is huge
